Setup Guide
Connect to Wakflo
In Wakflo, select GitHub integration and enter your Personal Access Token to establish the connection. You can generate a token from GitHub Settings > Developer settings > Personal access tokens.
Make sure to select the correct scopes when creating your token to access the repositories and features you need. Keep your token secure as it provides access to your GitHub account.
Test Connection
Verify the connection by retrieving test data to ensure everything is working properly.
The GitHub integration requires a Personal Access Token with appropriate permissions. Make sure to select the correct scopes when creating your token to access the repositories and features you need.
Best Practices
Working with GitHub Data
- •Use labels to organize and categorize issues effectively
- •Assign issues to team members for clear ownership and accountability
- •Use milestones to track progress toward project goals
- •Implement error handling for issue creation to avoid duplicates
- •Rotate your Personal Access Token periodically for security
Troubleshooting
Authentication Issues
- •Verify that your Personal Access Token is valid and hasn't expired
- •Ensure your token has the required scopes (repo, issues, etc.)
- •Check that you have access to the repositories you're trying to automate
Issue Operation Issues
- •Ensure repository names and issue numbers are correctly formatted
- •Verify that the issue exists before attempting to comment or lock it
- •Check that you have write access to the repository
Rate Limiting
- •GitHub enforces rate limits of 5,000 requests per hour for authenticated requests
- •Implement delays between bulk operations to avoid hitting rate limits
- •Monitor your API usage through GitHub's rate limit API endpoint
