Connecting GitHub accounts, Bitbucket workspaces, GitLab users, and Jira sites CodeCatalyst

To connect your GitHub account, Bitbucket workspace, GitLab user, or Jira site to CodeCatalyst

1. Open the CodeCatalyst console at https://codecatalyst.aws/.

2. Navigate to your CodeCatalyst space.

3. Do one of the following to view a list of the installed extensions for your space:

   1. Choose Settings, and then choose Installed extensions.

   2. Choose the Catalog icon in the top menu.

4. Choose Configure for one of the following extensions you want to configure: GitHub repositories, Bitbucket repositories, GitLab repositories, or Jira Software.

5. Do one of the following depending on the third-party extension you chose to configure:

   • GitHub repositories: Connect to a GitHub account.

     1. In the Connected GitHub accounts tab, choose Connect GitHub account to go to the external site for GitHub.

     2. Sign in to your GitHub account using your GitHub credentials, and then choose the account where you want to install Amazon CodeCatalyst.

        Tip

        If you have previously connected a GitHub account to the space, you will not be prompted to reauthorize. You will instead see a dialog box asking you where you would like to install the extension if you are a member or collaborator in more than one GitHub space, or the configuration page for the Amazon CodeCatalyst application if you only belong to one GitHub space. Configure the application for the repository access that you want to allow, and then choose Save. If the Save button is not active, make a change to the configuration, and then try again.

     3. Choose whether you want to allow CodeCatalyst to access all current and future repositories, or choose the specific GitHub repositories you want to use in CodeCatalyst. The default option is to include all GitHub repositories in the GitHub account, including future repositories that will be accessed by CodeCatalyst.

     4. Review the permissions given to CodeCatalyst, and then choose Install.

     After connecting your GitHub account to CodeCatalyst, you're taken to the GitHub repositories extension details page, where you can view and manage connected GitHub accounts and linked GitHub repositories.

   • Bitbucket repositories: Connect to a Bitbucket workspace.

     1. In the Connected Bitbucket workspaces tab, choose Connect Bitbucket workspace to go to the external site for Bitbucket.

     2. Sign into your Bitbucket workspace using your Bitbucket credentials and review the permissions given to CodeCatalyst.

     3. From the Authorize for workspace dropdown menu, choose the Bitbucket workspace you want to provide CodeCatalyst access to, and then choose Grant access.

        Tip

        If you have previously connected a Bitbucket workspace to the space, you will not be prompted to reauthorize. You will instead see a dialog asking you where you would like to install the extension if you're a member or collaborator in more than one Bitbucket workspace, or the configuration page for the Amazon CodeCatalyst application if you only belong to one Bitbucket workspace. Configure the application for the workspace access you want to allow, and then choose Grant access. If the Grant access button is not active, make a change to the configuration, and then try again.

     After connecting your Bitbucket workspace to CodeCatalyst, you're taken to the Bitbucket repositories extension details page, where you can view and manage connected Bitbucket workspaces and linked Bitbucket repositories.

   • GitLab repositories: Connect to a GitLab user.

     1. Choose Connect GitLab user to go to the external site for GitLab.

     2. Sign in to your GitLab user using your GitLab credentials and review the permissions given to CodeCatalyst.

        Tip

        If you have previously connected a GitLab user to the space, you will not be prompted to reauthorize. You will instead be navigated back to the CodeCatalyst console.

     3. Choose Authorize AWS Connector for GitLab.

     After connecting your GitLab user to CodeCatalyst, you're taken to the GitLab repositories extension details page, where you can view and manage connected GitLab user and linked GitLab project repositories.

        If you previously installed CodeCatalyst to your Jira site, you will be notified. Choose Get started to be taken to the final step.

     3. Depending on your role, do one of the following:

        1. If you are a Jira site administrator, from the site dropdown menu, choose the Jira site to install the CodeCatalyst application, and then choose Install app.

           Note

           If you have one Jira site, this step won't appear, and you'll automatically be directed to the next step.

        2. 1. If you aren't a Jira administrator, from the site dropdown menu, choose the Jira site to install the CodeCatalyst application, and then choose Request app. For more information on installing Jira apps, see Who can install apps?.

           2. Enter the reason you need to install CodeCatalyst into the input text field or keep the default text, and then choose Submit request.

     4. Review the actions performed by CodeCatalyst when the application is installed, and then choose Get it now.
