FAQPage Schema
How do I connect GitHub to Nixopus when no connector exists?▼

To connect GitHub to Nixopus, you must set up a GitHub connector by installing the Nixopus GitHub App for cloud users or configuring a GitHub App manifest for self-hosted users. This process grants Nixopus authorized access to your repositories.

What is the difference between GitHub App installation and GitHub App manifest setup?▼

GitHub App installation applies to cloud onboarding, allowing direct authorization to repositories or organizations. GitHub App manifest setup is for self-hosted onboarding, requiring you to create and configure the manifest locally for controlled access.

How do I verify my GitHub connector is ready for deployment?▼

You verify the GitHub connector by checking permissions and confirming the created connector's connection status. Once validated, the connection is ready and you can proceed with deployment by instructing the system to deploy your app.

Do I need a GitHub App manifest for self-hosted Nixopus onboarding?▼

Yes, self-hosted onboarding requires creating and configuring a GitHub App manifest. This allows local hosting and controlled access to your GitHub repositories, ensuring the deployment can proceed securely.

Why does my GitHub connector setup fail permission checks?▼

GitHub connector setup fails permission checks when the GitHub App lacks necessary repository or organization access. Ensure you authorize the Nixopus GitHub App with the correct permissions during installation or manifest configuration.
