Git

Use the Git tab to manage user authentication for remote access to Git server repositories. Server accounts are accessed through providers such as GitHub, GitLab, and Bitbucket.

Git must be set up and configured to a server account and repository. Typically administrators set up and manage the main repository that robot developers use when working with Git in RPA.

The following table describes options on the Git tab in the Design Studio Settings window.

Box Description

Repository URL

Type or paste the full URL of the remote repository that you want to access.

Examples:

https://github.com/your-org/project.git

(ssh://)git@github.com:your-org/project.git

Authentication

Select one of the supported authentication methods to configure authentication.

User Credentials

  • Enter your Git Username.

  • Enter your Password.

  • Select OK.

Many Git providers (like GitHub) no longer support password-based access and require a token or other key instead.

Github Personal Access Token

  • Enter your GitHub personal access token.

  • Select OK.

SSH Authentication

To use this method, you must provide the private key file (optionally with a pass phrase) and ensure that your public key is added to your Git server account.

  • Load your Private Key Content (SSH key pair) for secure access.

  • Enter your private key Password, if applicable.

    The public key is automatically added when connecting to the server the first time and the public key is accepted.

  • Select OK.
