Create a Group
Creating a group is optional. You only need one if you want to share your projects with other users. If you are creating a project for yourself, you can safely skip this step.
What is a group?
A group assembles users together so that they can share projects.
Create a group
Once logged, click on the menu item Groups and select the New Groups tab.
Click on the code repository provider that you want to connect (GitHub, GitLab or Bitbucket)
For GitHub
GitHub users cannot create groups. For more information, read the GitHub integration guide.
Click the Install App button to install the Codiga App in the GitHub account associated.
If you don't see your group, install the Codiga App on your user account or organization.
If you previously installed the Codiga App on a User or Group, remove the app and reinstall it to renew your installation.
For GitLab
Click the Link my GitLab Account button.
You will be redirected to User Preferences, then click the Link Account button for GitLab.
You have linked your GitLab account. To unlink your account anytime, go to User Preferences, and click the Unlink button.
Now, let's create groups for GitLab. Click on the menu item Groups, click the New Groups tab, and select GitLab. Now you can see the list of your projects. To join an existent group, click on the Join Group button on the right side of the screen. To create a new group, click on the Create Group button.
Once you have joined or created a group, you will be redirected to My Groups tab.
For Bitbucket
Click the Link my Bitbucket Account button.
You will be redirected to User Preferences, then click the Link Account button for Bitbucket.
You have linked your Bitbucket account. To unlink your account anytime, go to User Preferences, and click the Unlink button.
Now, let's create groups for Bitbucket. Click on the menu item Groups, click the New Groups tab, and select Bitbucket. Now you can see the list of your projects. To join an existent group, click on the Join Group button on the right side of the screen. To create a new group, click on the Create Group button.
