When you create a new project in Maia, you can connect your organization’s own GitHub repository to the Maia project. Once the GitHub repository is connected, data pipelines built in Maia can be committed and pushed to that repository. To connect the repository, your organization’s GitHub account must have the Maia Integration app installed. The app solution provides high security, granting access only to the repositories and actions required for Maia to store and retrieve data pipelines corresponding to the organization’s GitHub account.
The Maia GitHub app only supports GitHub. GitHub Enterprise Server is not supported.
You only need to install the Maia GitHub app once in your organization’s GitHub account. Once installed, you can view the list of repositories that Maia has access to. You may need to confirm with your GitHub account’s admin/owner that you can install the Maia GitHub app and create a repository. Per GitHub’s documentation, “GitHub Apps are preferred over OAuth apps” because GitHub apps use fine-grained permissions, provide users more control over which repositories the app can access, and use short-lived tokens. For more information about GitHub apps, read GitHub Apps overview. To install the app, first read Prerequisites for connecting a GitHub repository to Maia, and then Installing the Maia app in GitHub.
