GitHub is a popular service for hosting and collaborating on software projects. The GitHub CLI comes pre-installed on your Zo and is the easiest way to connect to GitHub.

​
1. Create a new personal access token

To authenticate the GitHub CLI, first Create a new personal access token (classic). You must select repo, read:org, and gist (and can select additional permissions if you need these on your Zo).
GitHub personal access token scopes
Reference: gh auth login.

​
2. Authenticate the GitHub CLI

After creating your personal access token, authenticate the GitHub CLI by running the following command in your Zo application’s terminal: 
gh auth login --with-token <your-personal-access-token>
That’s it! You (and your Zo) can now use the GitHub CLI to work with your code and automations on GitHub. To learn more about what the GitHub CLI can do, check out the manual.
