Connecting GitHub

How to connect your GitHub account to CICDoo via OAuth or a personal access token, and where to manage or disconnect it.

Two ways to connect

CICDoo needs access to your GitHub account to create repositories and deploy projects. You can connect in either of two ways:

  • OAuth: click "Connect with GitHub OAuth" (or "Connect with GitHub" inside the New Project modal). You are sent to GitHub to approve the connection and then returned to CICDoo.
  • Personal Access Token (PAT): click "configure a Personal Access Token", paste a token and save it. The UI links to GitHub's token creation page and notes the required scopes: repo and read:user.

Once connected, CICDoo shows a green "GitHub Connected" panel with your GitHub username.

Where to manage the connection

  • Settings, Integrations tab: the GitHub Integration card shows your connection status, the OAuth and PAT options, and a Disconnect button.
  • New Project modal: when you pick GitHub as the provider, the same connect options appear inline so you can connect without leaving the project flow.

Enterprise edition and PATs

If you deploy Odoo Enterprise, OAuth alone is not enough. The Integrations tab and the New Project modal both show an "Enterprise Edition Requires PAT" notice: Odoo Enterprise repositories are private, so you must configure a GitHub Personal Access Token whose account has access to the Odoo Enterprise repos. The panel also shows your current PAT status. Enterprise projects additionally require a Pro plan, see Creating a project.

Disconnecting

Open Settings, then the Integrations tab, and click Disconnect on the GitHub card (the same button appears in the New Project modal when connected). After disconnecting you can reconnect at any time with OAuth or a new PAT.

Quick steps

  1. Open Settings, then the Integrations tab.
  2. On the GitHub Integration card, click "Connect with GitHub OAuth", or choose "configure a Personal Access Token" and save a token with repo and read:user scopes.
  3. Confirm the card shows "GitHub Connected".
