What It Does

Once connected, Decimal:
  • Indexes your code for intelligent search
  • Searches relevant files when analyzing support tickets
  • References specific code in its investigation responses
  • Stays up to date by periodically re-indexing your repositories

Connecting GitHub

  1. Open Integrations: Go to Settings → Integrations.
  2. Click GitHub: Click on the GitHub integration row. You’ll be redirected to GitHub’s App installation page.
  3. Authorize Decimal: On GitHub, review the permissions below and install the Decimal GitHub App, choosing which repositories it can see. You need to be an admin on every repository you grant, or Decimal rejects the install.
  4. Select repositories: After authorization, you’ll be returned to Decimal where you can manage which repositories are indexed.
Repository indexing runs automatically after initial connection. Large repositories may take some time to fully index.

Permissions

The main app is read-only. A separate GitHub Write app, offered from the GitHub panel after connecting, is only needed if you want Decimal to open pull requests.
