GitHub

Code repositories for projects, docs, and issues.

Integration features

Members will click “View Repository” on your portalry to launch GitHub. Use this checklist to give them a smooth landing every time.

Portalry recognises github.com/{owner}/{repo} links, including private repositories where metadata may not be available.

What Portalry handles for you

  • Extracts repository name directly from the URL path (owner/repo).
  • Uses a fixed "GitHub Repository" description so private repos still render cleanly.
  • Shows a dedicated "View Repository" button for members.

Setup checklist

  1. Copy the repository URL (for example https://github.com/tobyberesford/portalry).
  2. Paste it into Portalry and verify the owner/repo name is shown correctly.

What still lives in the platform

  • Portalry does not sync issues, pull requests, or commits from GitHub.
  • Private repository access remains controlled by GitHub permissions.

Extras & best practices

  • If you move or rename a repository, update the portal URL to avoid redirects.
