Enabling GitHub Connect for GitHub.com

You can access additional features and workflows on GitHub Enterprise Server 인스턴스 by enabling GitHub Connect. See "GitHub Connect 정보."

What happens when GitHub Connect is enabled?

When you enable GitHub Connect, you configure a connection between GitHub Enterprise Server 인스턴스 and an enterprise account on GitHub Enterprise Cloud. 연결은 포트 443 또는 80을 통한 HTTPS를 사용하며 TLS로 보호됩니다.

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 GitHub Enterprise Server 인스턴스.
If your enterprise account on GitHub.com uses IP allow lists, you must add the IP address or network for GitHub Enterprise Server 인스턴스 to your IP allow list. See "엔터프라이즈에서 보안 설정에 대한 정책 적용" 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 "아웃바운드 웹 프록시 서버 구성."
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 "Enabling GitHub Connect for GHE.com."
