When a task is moved, create a branch on GitHub

Question

Hello network, I need guidance on creating automation for a project, so that when a task is moved from "Pending" to "In Progress" a branch is created on Github. I followed the steps in the documentation, my connection to GitHub was successful, however, when I go to create the automation, I can't find my GitHub to connect to. Attached are 2 photos to help

Hello Desenvolvimento Sifas

Thank you for using our community.

As per the screenshot, the problem with your automation rule is that we are missing the automation permission in your GitHub

* Go to Automation and select Create rule.

* Select a trigger for your rule.

* Select the Create branch in GitHub action.

* Select Connect to begin connecting your rule to GitHub. A GitHub prompt will appear, asking you to grant authorization to Atlassian automation.

* Select which GitHub organization you want to connect to.

* For organization owners: Select Grant on the organization you want to authorize.

* For organization members: Select Request on the organization you want to connect. This will send an email to the organization owner asking them to authorize on your behalf.

* If you forget to hit Grant or Request, you can try again later by going to GitHub and selecting User Settings > Applications > Authorise Oauth Applications > Atlassian Automation

6. This will finish setting up the connection, and you’ll be able to continue configuring your rule. However, if you had to Request authorization, the Organization dropdown may not show the organization you’re looking for when you configure the action - if that’s the case, you’ll need to contact your GitHub organization owner and ask them to authorize Atlassian Automation.

Please let me know if following the steps above solved your problem
