Reconnecting your Git user account
The first time you try to perform an action that involves interaction with your Git repository, the Data Productivity Cloud guides you through the process of securely authorizing access to your Git provider. From then on, this information is used for all interactions performed by your account only.
From time to time, if required by your Git provider or your organization's security policy, you may be prompted by the Data Productivity Cloud to reauthorize this access. You also need to reauthorize this access if you want to use a different account to the account you originally shared.
Follow the reauthorization process described below to tell the Data Productivity Cloud to discard the details of your selected Git user account so that you can complete the account selection process again.
This can help if:
- You have selected the wrong account to authorize.
- Your permission to access a repository has changed, and this is not reflected in the Data Productivity Cloud.
- You need to resolve unexpected issues accessing your Git repository.
Reauthorize your Git user account
- In the left navigation, click the Projects icon
.
- In the list, select the project that you need to reauthorize.
- In the top right, click Reauthorize.
- A dialog will appear and guide you through the reauthorization process.
You can also reauthorize your Git user account when adding a new project, if you accidentally authorize with the wrong account. Click Previous until you return to the Select Git provider step, then click ... in the top-right corner of the card for the Git provider you want to select, and click Reauthorize.
