How to integrate GitHub with Zepel?

Sometimes your dev team can merge and close a pull request, but forget to update progress. That can leave you with outdated information.

When you connect your GitHub repository to your Zepel Squad, you can easily:

• link a Feature to a new branch,
• link Items to commit,
• link Items to pull requests,
• link a bug to a branch, and
• automate developer updates in Zepel

In this article, we’ll see how you can set up your Zepel account to integrate with your GitHub repository.

Integrate Zepel with Github

• Once you’re inside a squad, click on “Connect to Git” from the left sidebar. This will open your squad’s Git Settings pop-up.

• From the Git Settings pop-up, click on “Connect to a Git repository”.

• From the pop-up, click on “Link to GitHub”.

• You’ll be prompted to log in to your GitHub account, if you’re logged out.

• Once you log in, you’ll be asked to give Zepel permissions. Click “Authorize”.

• Once authorized, your Zepel account will now be integrated with GitHub.
