How to re-authorize / re-initiate GitHub integration with repository level access?

Hivel currently only supports GitHub accounts that are associated with an organization. Often, this step is missed when setting up a GitHub account, and you may have run into an error when creating an account on Hivel. When you encounter this error during the initial process, we recommend you follow the below steps to create an organization and link your current users to the organization.

To re-initiate/reauthorize GitHub integration with Hivel, follow these steps:

  1. Log in to your GitHub account.

  2. Revoke the Hivel app access from your GitHub account by going to Settings > Account Settings > Third Party apps > GitHub apps > Hivel.

  3. Click on Configure -> Scroll down and uninstall the app.

  4. Return to your Hivel account. Go to Settings > Integrations. You will see a "Reauthorize" button on the GitHub card. (If you're not able to see it, please reach out to [email protected])

  1. Select "Repository-level Access"

  2. You will be redirected to the Github app installation page where you have to click on "Install" for the Hivel app.

  3. Select the org where you want to integrate Hivel

  4. You can either select to give access to all repositories or a few select repositories as required.

  5. Click 'Install & Authorize'.

  6. After authorization, you'll be redirected back to Hivel.
