GitHub

Pull user, permission, role info and more to connect across tools.

Overview

Use the GitHub integration to grant access to roles and licenses. Integrating with GitHub enables you to build boards that correlate fields within GitHub and with other connected tools. You can also run actions on fetched data without ever leaving Stitchflow.

Configure

Enable the GitHub integration from Connections in the left sidenav. Click Connect and authenticate using your GitHub credentials. Before connecting, GitHub will sync for a few minutes while fetching data. Once connected, you can click the ... menu on the GitHub integration tile to manage permissions or disconnect the integration.

Overview

Manage permissions

GitHub actions allow you to run operations on fetched data without ever leaving Stitchflow. All actions are enabled by default and will be accessible on every board, but can be disabled by clicking the ... menu and selecting Manage permissions.

Please note that disconnecting GitHub will also permanently delete any boards in which it is used.

Boards

When building a board, you can select any supported GitHub resource as your object to indicate the data you want to surface on your board. We automatically determine the primary field for each object. The primary field is meant to be a unique representation of each record in a board.

An object in Stitchflow is a data type that is used to treat several different pieces of data as one unit.

Adding fields

Click Add field to select fields from both within GitHub and across your other connected tools. We only show fields that can be joined with your chosen object.

Triggering actions

Click Integration actions in the top right of any board to view all available actions across your connected integrations. When selecting an action, you'll be prompted to fill out all required inputs necessary to run the action. Changes and updates made via actions will persist to all boards.

Stitchflow fetches GitHub data every 24 hours.
