Hi @Dominik Rudnicki 

Simply connecting your GitHub account won't automatically display your repositories.

Head to Apps → Manage apps → GitHub for Atlassian to confirm your organization is connected and that this specific repository is selected under repository access.

Jira also needs a trigger to actually link a repo to your project. Try pushing a branch, commit, or pull request that contains a Jira issue key (like PROJ-123) in the name. Once Jira sees that key, the repository will show up on your Development page. If you need to sync older history, an admin can run a "backfill" from the GitHub app settings.

Is this a personal or organization repo, and have you tried referencing an issue key yet?

Best,

Arek 🤠
