About {% data variables.product.prodname_github_connect %}
To enable {% data variables.product.prodname_github_connect %}, you must configure the connection in both {% data variables.product.product_location_enterprise %} and in your {% data variables.product.prodname_ghe_cloud %} organization or enterprise account.
To configure a connection, your proxy configuration must allow connectivity to github.com and api.github.com. For more information, see "[Configuring an outbound web proxy server](/enterprise/{{ currentVersion }}/admin/guides/installation/configuring-an-outbound-web-proxy-server)."
After enabling {% data variables.product.prodname_github_connect %}, you will be able to enable features such as unified search and unified contributions. For more information about all of the features available, see "[Managing connections between {% data variables.product.prodname_ghe_server %} and {% data variables.product.prodname_ghe_cloud %}](/enterprise/{{ currentVersion }}/admin/installation/managing-connections-between-github-enterprise-server-and-github-enterprise-cloud)."
When you connect {% data variables.product.product_location_enterprise %} to {% data variables.product.prodname_ghe_cloud %}, a record on {% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom_the_website %} stores information about the connection:
- The public key portion of your {% data variables.product.prodname_ghe_server %} license
- A hash of your {% data variables.product.prodname_ghe_server %} license
- The customer name on your {% data variables.product.prodname_ghe_server %} license
- The hostname of {% data variables.product.product_location_enterprise %}
- The version of {% data variables.product.product_location_enterprise %}
- The organization or enterprise account on {% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom_the_website %} that's connected to {% data variables.product.product_location_enterprise %}
- The authentication token that's used by {% data variables.product.product_location_enterprise %} to make requests to {% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom_the_website %}
Enabling {% data variables.product.prodname_github_connect %} also creates a {% data variables.product.prodname_github_app %} owned by your {% data variables.product.prodname_ghe_cloud %} organization or enterprise account. {% data variables.product.prodname_ghe_server %} uses the {% data variables.product.prodname_github_app %}'s credentials to make requests to {% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom_the_website %}.
{% data variables.product.prodname_ghe_server %} stores credentials from the {% data variables.product.prodname_github_app %}. These credentials will be replicated to any high availability or clustering environments, and stored in any backups, including snapshots created by {% data variables.product.prodname_enterprise_backup_utilities %}.
- An authentication token, which is valid for one hour
- A private key, which is used to generate a new authentication token
Enabling {% data variables.product.prodname_github_connect %} will not allow {% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom_the_website %} users to make changes to {% data variables.product.prodname_ghe_server %}.
For more information about managing enterprise accounts using the GraphQL API, see "Enterprise accounts."
Enabling {% data variables.product.prodname_github_connect %}
- Sign in to {% data variables.product.product_location_enterprise %} and {% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom_the_website %}. {% data reusables.enterprise-accounts.access-enterprise %}{% ifversion ghes < 3.1 %}{% data reusables.enterprise-accounts.settings-tab %}{% endif %}{% data reusables.enterprise-accounts.github-connect-tab %}
- Under "{% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom_the_website %} is not enabled yet", click Enable {% data variables.product.prodname_github_connect %}. By clicking Enable {% data variables.product.prodname_github_connect %}, you agree to the {% data variables.product.prodname_github_connect %} Addendum to the {% data variables.product.prodname_enterprise %} License Agreement.

- Next to the enterprise account or organization you'd like to connect, click Connect.

Disconnecting a {% data variables.product.prodname_ghe_cloud %} organization or enterprise account from {% data variables.product.product_location_enterprise %}
