Streamline your development workflow by connecting GitHub with Pronnel. This comprehensive guide will walk you through setting up GitHub integration, managing repositories, tracking issues and pull requests, and automating workflows between your development and project management processes.

Steps To Follow

Step 1: Access App Integration in Pronnel

Access App Integration section in Pronnel dashboard

Log into your Pronnel account and navigate to the main dashboard. Look for the "Apps" section in the left sidebar or top navigation menu. Click on it to access the app integration marketplace where you can connect various third-party services including GitHub.

Step 2: Connect Your GitHub Account

In the app integration section, find and click on the GitHub integration card. You'll see a "Instance". Select the instance you want to connect to Pronnel.It will be redirected to GitHub where you need to authorize Pronnel to access your repositories. Make sure you're logged into the correct GitHub account and grant the necessary permissions.

Step 3: Configure Repository Settings

Configure GitHub repository settings in Pronnel

After successful authentication, you'll be redirected back to Pronnel. Here, you can select which repositories you want to integrate with your Pronnel boards. Choose the repositories that are relevant to your current projects. You can also configure which events (commits, issues, pull requests) you want to track and sync with your Pronnel workflow.

Step 4: Set Up Issue and PR Tracking

Set up GitHub issue and pull request tracking

Configure how GitHub issues and pull requests should be tracked in your Pronnel boards. You can set up automatic creation of Pronnel items when new GitHub issues are created, or when pull requests are opened. Configure the mapping between GitHub labels and Pronnel board phases or statuses to maintain consistency across both platforms.

Step 5: Automate Workflows

Set up automation rules to streamline your development workflow. For example, you can create rules that automatically update Pronnel items when GitHub issues are closed, or send notifications to your team when critical pull requests are merged. You can also set up bi-directional sync so that updates in Pronnel reflect in GitHub and vice versa.
