GitHub Enterprise Server - Blitzy Platform Documentation

GitHub Enterprise Server (GHES) integration lets Blitzy connect to your self-hosted instance. It uses a manifest-based app registration flow that creates a private GitHub App directly on your GHES instance — no marketplace listing required. If you use GitHub.com or GitHub Enterprise Cloud, see GitHub instead.

Setup

Start the connection

Navigate to Settings > Integrations in your Blitzy dashboard and click Connect GitHub Enterprise.

Enter your instance domain

Provide your GitHub Enterprise Server domain (e.g., github.yourcompany.com). Blitzy registers the app on your GHES instance via the manifest flow.

Install the app

You are automatically redirected to GHES to review and install the app. Select repository access — grant access to all repositories or specific repositories.

You must have admin access to your GitHub Enterprise Server instance to register and install the app.
