I am using Jenkins Github plugin and was using public/private key for one repo, which was working alright. But I got problem when I added another repo, because github doesn't allow sharing public key across multiple repos.
So i integrated jenkins using github token (in Jenkins > manage > configure system and service in github) and removed private/public keys in jenkins server and github. Now when I add repo, I get Permission denied (publickey) error (image attached)
How do i integrate multiple github repos with my jenkins server?
Found the problem. There is key attached to account of user who's token was added to jenkins. My assumption was it should not have mattered as token was added. But that's not correct.
Added private keys of user who's token was used, in jenkins server and everything returns to normal
Got hint from Authenticate Jenkins CI for Github private repository

I'm building a Google Spreadsheet app where Google app script will commit the generated files into a git repository. Access is using an OAuth app, client id and secret.
Committing files to repo that I own works fine, but when I try to commit and push files to a repository I created under an organisation, it seems like the repo isn't there.
Error: {"message":"Not Found","documentation_url":"https://docs.github.com/rest/reference/git#create-a-blob"}
Looking at both, the only difference between them is the URL used to access the API.
The one that works: https://api.github.com/repos/[my username]/[repo name]/git/blobs
Not working: https://api.github.com/repos/[org name]/[repo name]/git/blobs
Is there a separate API for dealing with organisation repo? I even created a public repo to test and it wouldnt work.
Found the solution.
The OAuth app access was denied as it was created with my account. Create the OAuth app with the organisation account instead.
I have created an organization inside GitHub and moved my personal repo to the organization repo. Then I have added service connection with Git and also did GitHub connection inside azure DevOps. Now I would like to access my organization repo from azure build pipeline but it is not listing my organization repo and it only shows personal accounts repos.
It is saying "This setting is required". But I have added git connection and also service connection.
Accepting your help and suggestion.
Please check whether the selected service connection is to a GitHub-InstallationToken. When I choose this type of service connection, I reproduce this problem.
In addition , you can try to create a new service connection authorized with GitHub personal access token to see if this problem still exists.
Using the official guide, created build project to run tests on GitHub PullRequests creation. The webhook is correctly shown on GitHub, builds are being triggered in Codebuild, however, the build status is not shown in Github, despite the option Report build status is set true. If I correctly understood the tutorial, Codebuild has native support of GitHub, and after successful creation of a webhook, the new verification check should be added for PR submission automatically, any suggestions to make this work?
It should work automatically. If builds are triggering but codebuild is not reporting back on the status, then it sounds like the codebuild project no longer has permission to the repo. You could try adding the GitHub source to codebuild again.
"Report build status" actually has no effect when triggered by a webhook, and should always report back in theory (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/codebuild/latest/userguide/change-project.html). It's set to false for my project and always updates the pull requests.
Ensure the GitHub user has write access to the repository, and if you're using a Personal Access Token (PAT), ensure the repo:status scope is granted:
Grants read/write access to public and private repository commit statuses. This scope is only necessary to grant other users or services access to private repository commit statuses without granting access to the code.
https://developer.github.com/apps/building-oauth-apps/understanding-scopes-for-oauth-apps/
(I experienced this issue recently. The PAT had the necessary scopes granted but the GitHub user had read-only access to the repository. Granting the GitHub user write permission solved the problem.)
I wrote the tool which use the one github repo as a cloud storage.
I need to give the write (push) access for this tool to one github repo, but I do not want to use the github user credentials (user name and password), because anyone can use it to logon to github and change the credentials or delete the repo.
You can generate an OAuth authorization for your specific app.
See an example here: it supposed you have registered you app in your account.
I an account on GitLab that was created using the sign in through GitHub option. When I attempt to connect a repository hosted on GitLab using the GitHub for Windows (GHfW) application, it asks for my username and password for GitLab. The problem is I technically don't have a username and password for GitLab. On the off chance it would work, I tried using my GitHub username and password, but that doesn't work.
I haven't been able to find anything that solves this issue. Is there anything I can do to get the GHfW application to work with this account and repository?
