Read and write access to trello to use github power up

Question

I wanted to use the github power up on trello for my organisation, but after enabling it I realised that trello needs complete read and write access to private repos. Is there a way to avoid this? if not, then what about the security concerns for private repos? how secure is this?

thank you

Hey Iain, thanks for your reply.

No that's not what i meant. I am trying to turn on the github power up for trello and i cannot see my organisation's repositories in it as they are private, on further googling on this i found out that github power up requires read-write access to enable itself seamlessly. However, i can see public repositories under my organisation. How do i tackle this issue?

Thanks in advance

@Salaj Mithbawkar do you mean other people in your team getting access to repos that are private for you? When each person enables the power up they do so for their own account, so other people with access to your board won't get access to your private repos
