# Associating with projects

As a Quality Profile Administrator, you can explicitly associate a quality profile with projects.

As a project administrator, you can associate your project with quality profiles. See the [quality-profile-association](https://docs.sonarsource.com/sonarqube-cloud/managing-your-projects/project-analysis/quality-profile-association "mention") page.

To explicitly associate a quality profile with projects, or change the projects associated with a quality profile:

1. Go to your Organization. See the[viewing-organizations](https://docs.sonarsource.com/sonarqube-cloud/getting-started/viewing-organizations "mention") page for instructions.
2. Go to the **Quality Profiles** page and retrieve your quality profile.
3. In the **Projects** section of the quality profile, select **Change projects**. The **Projects** dialog opens.
4. Select the tab you want to use to filter the list of projects:
   * The **With** tab shows the projects associated with this quality profile. Use this tab to remove associations.
   * The **Without** tab shows the projects not associated with this quality profile. Use this tab to associate projects.
   * The **All** tab shows all projects. Use this tab to associate all projects or remove all associations.
5. Use the Search field to filter the list of projects.
6. Select or unselect a project to associate the project or remove the association, respectively. In the **All** tab, select **Bulk Change** to select or unselect all projects.
7. If you’re in the **With** or **Without** tabs, select **Reload** to refresh the dialog with your changes.
8. Select **Close**.
