You can access additional features and workflows on tu instancia de GitHub Enterprise Server by enabling GitHub Connect. See "Acerca de GitHub Connect."

What happens when GitHub Connect is enabled?

When you enable GitHub Connect, you configure a connection between tu instancia de GitHub Enterprise Server and an enterprise account on GitHub Enterprise Cloud. La conexión usa HTTPS a través de los puertos 443 o 80 y está protegido por TLS.

Enabling GitHub Connect creates a GitHub App owned by the enterprise account on GitHub Enterprise Cloud. GitHub Enterprise Server uses the GitHub App's credentials to make requests to GitHub Enterprise Cloud.

GitHub Enterprise Server stores credentials from the GitHub App. The following credentials will be replicated to all nodes in a high availability or cluster environment, and stored in any backups, including snapshots created by GitHub Enterprise Server Backup Utilities.

  • An authentication token, which is valid for one hour
  • A private key, which is used to generate a new authentication token

Prerequisites

  • You must have an enterprise account on GitHub.com that uses GitHub Enterprise Cloud.
  • Your enterprise account on GitHub.com must be invoiced. Enterprise accounts on the free trial of GitHub Enterprise Cloud or that pay by credit card cannot be connected to tu instancia de GitHub Enterprise Server.
  • If your enterprise account on GitHub.com uses IP allow lists, you must add the IP address or network for tu instancia de GitHub Enterprise Server to your IP allow list. See "Requerir las políticas para los ajustes de seguridad en tu empresa" in the GitHub Enterprise Cloud documentation.
  • To configure a connection, your proxy configuration must allow connectivity to github.com, api.github.com, and uploads.github.com. For more information, see "Configuración de un servidor proxy web de salida."
  • If you have previously enabled GitHub Connect for an enterprise on GHE.com, you must change your configuration to allow connections to GitHub.com. See "Habilitación de GitHub Connect para GHE.com."
