What is ClickUp MCP for Sonar and how does it work?

ClickUp MCP for Sonar is a Model Context Protocol connector that links ClickUp project management with Sonar code quality platforms. It syncs analysis results to ClickUp, automates task creation, and enables AI assistants to help track and resolve code issues.

How do I set up the ClickUp connector for Sonar?

Create API tokens in ClickUp and Sonar, install the MCP server, configure the Sonar server URL and webhooks, map Sonar projects to ClickUp spaces/lists, set permissions, and run a test sync. Typical setup takes 10–15 minutes.

What benefits come from integrating ClickUp with Sonar?

You get automatic task creation from findings, AI-driven prioritization, real-time updates in ClickUp, dashboards for code health, and fewer manual steps, helping teams ship safer code faster.

Can I automate task creation from Sonar quality gates?

Yes. You can trigger ClickUp tasks on quality gate failures, map severity to priority, auto-assign owners, add custom fields, and include links to Sonar issues for quick triage.

Which ClickUp features work with the Sonar connector?

Supported features include tasks, subtasks, custom fields, comments, attachments, time tracking, automations, dashboards, and reporting. Templates and views also work for consistent workflows.

How does ClickUp AI prioritize Sonar code issues?

AI weighs severity, coverage impact, security risk, component criticality, deadlines, and team capacity to suggest an execution order. It can group related issues and surface quick wins.

Is it compatible with self-hosted Sonar instances?

Yes. It supports SonarCloud and self-managed SonarQube. Provide the server URL, ensure network access, and configure webhooks. On-prem deployment of the connector is supported for compliance.

What permissions are needed for the Sonar integration?

ClickUp: workspace admin to create tokens and write access to tasks, comments, and custom fields. Sonar: project admin to configure webhooks and read analysis data. Use least-privilege where possible.

Can I customize ClickUp task templates for Sonar issues?

Yes. Create templates per issue type (security, code smell, coverage) with predefined fields, assignees, checklists, and SLAs. The connector can auto-apply templates based on severity or tags.

How does real-time sync work between ClickUp and Sonar?

Webhooks notify the connector of new analyses and status changes. The connector updates related ClickUp tasks, fields, and comments. Background polling and manual re-sync handle missed events.
