# GitHub member synchronization

*This feature is only available in the Team and Enterprise plans. See* [Subscription plans](/sonarqube-cloud/administering-sonarcloud/managing-subscription/subscription-plans.md) *for more information.*

When you import a GitHub organization to SonarQube Cloud, the member synchronization is enabled by default on the new SonarQube Cloud organization provided Single Sign-On (SSO) authentication is not enabled. It means that:

* Existing SonarQube Cloud users who are members of the GitHub organization will be automatically added to the SonarQube Cloud organization during the import.
* New SonarQube Cloud users who are members of the GitHub organization will be automatically added to the SonarQube Cloud organization when they first sign up with SonarQube Cloud.
* Adding or removing GitHub organization members will be automatically synchronized in SonarQube Cloud, provided the corresponding SonarQube Cloud user exists.
* Note that user groups and permissions are not synchronized.

You can enable or disable the synchronization of bound organizations manually.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.sonarsource.com/sonarqube-cloud/administering-sonarcloud/about-sonarqube-cloud-solution/user-management/github-member-synchronization.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
