How to import rules.csv to sonar?

Question

I have a rules.csv file which I downloaded from another site, how do I import this to my sonar?

I do not have the credentials to get the XML file.

Answer 1

you cannot import a CSV file into Sonar. You can only import XML backups for quality profiles, or XML rulesets files for specific tools (Checkstyle, PMD, ...)

CSV is just a way to export rules, but not to import them.
