GitHub

Use an access token to connect Seqera Platform to a private GitHub repository. Personal (classic) or fine-grained access tokens can be used.

info

A user's personal access token (classic) can access every repository the user has access to. GitHub recommends using fine-grained personal access tokens (currently in beta), which can be restricted to specific repositories with granular permissions instead of broad scopes.

For personal (classic) tokens, grant access to the private repository by selecting the main repo scope when the token is created. See Creating a personal access token (classic).

For fine-grained tokens, the repository's organization must opt in to fine-grained tokens. See Creating a fine-grained personal access token.

Create GitHub credentials

After you've created and copied your access token, create a new credential in Seqera:

1. From an organization workspace: Select Credentials > Add Credentials. From your personal workspace: Go to the user menu and select Your credentials > Add credentials.
2. Enter a Name for the new credentials.
3. Select GitHub as the Provider.
4. Enter your Username and Access token.
5. (Recommended) Enter the Repository base URL for which the credentials should be applied (e.g., https://github.com/seqeralabs).
