Configuring user access to external version control

If your organization is using an external version control repository, Workbench requires you to provide your authentication credentials to access the repository prior to creating your first project.

Anaconda recommends that you create a personal access token with no expiration date to retain permanent access to your files from within Workbench.

Your auth token must have the following permissions:

GitHub

repo:status, repo_deployment, public_repo, repo:invite, and delete_repo

Adding an access token

1. Open the My account dropdown menu, then select Settings.
2. Under External Version Control Credentials, click Add.
3. Enter the Username and Personal Access Token you generated to access the repository in the relevant fields.
4. Click Add to update the platform with your credentials.

Now that you’ve configured access, you’ll be able access the repository within your sessions and deployments without having to leave the platform. Workbench creates a repository for each project that you create.

Editing an access token

1. Open the My account dropdown menu, then select Settings.
2. Open the actions dropdown menu for your access token and select Edit.
3. Update your repository Username and/or Personal Access Token value, then click Save.

Deleting an access token

1. Open the My account dropdown menu, then select Settings.
2. Open the actions dropdown menu for your access token and select Delete.
3. Click Delete.
