GitHub OAuth Setup

You can sign in to your QuickMeet.Chat workspace by enabling GitHub or GitHub Enterprise OAuth.

Prerequisites

• A GitHub or GitHub Enterprise account.

• A GitHub OAuth app and the client ID and secret.

  • If you don't have an app, go to your GitHub Developers Settings, navigate to OAuth Apps, and click New OAuth App.

  • Fill in the required information, including the Authorization callback URL, and save your app.

  • Your Client ID and a button to Generate a new client secret are now displayed. Click the button to generate a new client secret for your OAuth credentials. Copy both the client ID and the secret.

• Retrieve the Authorization Callback URL from the GitHub tab in your QuickMeet.Chat workspace. You can find it in the GitHub Callback URL section.

• If your callback URL is wrong, GitHub does not display any error. Instead of logging in, you receive an error message saying, No matching login attempt found.

Enable GitHub OAuth

• Navigate to OAuth settings (Administration > Workspace > Settings > OAuth) in your workspace.

• In the GitHub tab, enable OAuth and fill in the Client Id and Client Secret you copied earlier.

  • For GitHub Enterprise, add your Server URL also.

• Click Save changes.

A Sign in with GitHub button appears on your workspace's login page. Users can now Sign in with GitHub by clicking that button!
