Link your GitHub account and install the SupportPages app so we can read your repos and pick up merged pull requests automatically — the setup that turns code changes into draft updates for you.

## Prerequisites

- A SupportPages account
- Admin or write access to the GitHub repositories you want to connect

## Steps

### Step 1: Sign in to SupportPages

Open SupportPages and sign in. If you use GitHub day to day, click Continue with GitHub to link your account in one step. Otherwise, connect GitHub on the repository step.

### Step 2: Start a new project

From **Projects**, click Create your first project (or New Project if you already have one). SupportPages walks you through setup — the first step is choosing a repository.

### Step 3: Connect or install GitHub

On **Choose your repository**, find **GitHub** in the source list. If it shows **Not connected**, click **Connect** to link your GitHub account, or **Install** if you already signed in with GitHub. SupportPages only asks for read-only access to repos you choose.

### Step 4: Approve the GitHub App

GitHub opens in a new tab. Pick your account or organisation, then choose which repositories SupportPages can access. Grant access to every repo you want merge alerts for — you can add more later from the same screen.

### Step 5: Select your repository

Back in SupportPages, click **GitHub** in the source list to see your repos. Find the one you want to track and click **Connect**. SupportPages sets up a webhook so merged pull requests show up in your inbox automatically.

## Tips

- Don't see an organisation's repos? Use **Reconnect** on the repository step to refresh GitHub permissions.
- Need another repo later? Click **Add more GitHub repos** on the GitHub source screen to open GitHub's access settings again.

## Summary

Once GitHub is connected and a repository is selected, SupportPages can read your code and watch for merges — you're ready for automatic draft generation on every pull request you ship.
