Issues with XXL rules not being displayed in the dashboard

At support, here are a few of the common problems that we have seen with XXL rules not being displayed in the dashboard:

- Make sure the XXL rule is in the assessment model like in the sample screenshot below:

If it is not, you may need to reinstall the extension associated with the XXL rule and ensure that the XXL rule is now in the assessment model.

- Make sure the XXL rule is supported with the analyzers and technology you have

For example the SQL analyzer extension 2.4 only supports a few XXL rules as listed in the documentation here:

- Check if the similar non-XXL rule is violated 

For example there is the non XXL sql violation (though not every XXL rule has a non XXL counterpart):

Avoid SQL queries that no index can support

and the XXL version of it:

Avoid SQL queries on XXL tables that no index can support

The non-XXL rule would need to be violated for an object before it could even be considered for a XXL rule, so if you don't have the non-XXL violation you won't get an XXL violation.

- Lastly, see if the XXL file was properly processed in the analysis log.  It should look something like this:
