GitHub member synchronization

The GitHub member synchronization allows the automatic synchronization of organization members between GitHub and SonarQube Cloud.

When you import a GitHub organization to SonarQube Cloud, the member synchronization is enabled by default on the new SonarQube Cloud organization. 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. See Administering your users for more information.

• When you enable synchronization manually, members of the SonarQube Cloud organization who aren’t members of the corresponding GitHub organization will be removed from the organization.

• The GitHub member synchronization cannot be used in an organization that belongs to an SSO-enabled enterprise.
