How to integrate

About GitHub

Track branches and pull requests

Connect user stories in Aha! Develop to their GitHub branches or pull requests — so you can see when pull requests are open, merged, failed, or closed. Click on any branch or pull request to jump directly back to your code in GitHub.

Automate status updates

Automatically update a user story's status in Aha! Develop when an event happens in GitHub — such as when a pull request merges successfully. This keeps statuses up to date without manual intervention and gives cross-functional teammates visibility into how work is progressing.

Customize functionality

The Aha! Develop integration with GitHub is delivered via an open-source extension. This means you can customize the way it works to match your needs. For example, add code-based automation that creates a to-do to write documentation when a documentation label is added to a GitHub pull request.

Integrations in Aha! Develop are powered by extensions that are easy to install and set up. Choose from our growing library of open-source extensions to connect with all the tools your team uses to build lovable products.

Installation details:

Account administrators can install the GitHub extension from the extension library

Configure a webhook in GitHub to automatically link user stories with branches and pull requests — just use the Aha! reference number in the branch name

GitHub is a platform for version control and collaboration that allows developers to manage and share their code. It uses Git, an open-source version-control system, to track changes in code and enables multiple people to work on a project simultaneously. GitHub also provides tools for issue tracking, code review, and continuous integration, making it a popular choice for both open-source projects and private development work.
