Sure. It is in the Quartus online user manual here: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/programmable/documentation/spj1513986956763.html

You have to scroll down a bit to '2.1.3.1. Suppressing Message Display' under subsection 'Suppressing Message by Design Entity'

With the setting entered in the .qsf file as shown, Quartus won't even load the .qsf file anymore. Instead it will display an error for the offending line, but the message gives no hint what exactly it is it doesn't like.

    I also got an error when using below line without the message ID included:

    set_global_assignment -name MESSAGE_DISABLE -entity <name>

    Allow me to feedback this to the internal team. We will either fix the error issue or correct the lines in the user manual.

    Though Quartus recognizes the lines even without the double quotes, could you help to confirm?

    set_instance_assignment -name MESSAGE_DISABLE <message ID> -entity <entity name>
