4. Enter your team domain in the Homepage URL field.

   For example, https://<your-team-name>.cloudflareaccess.com

5. In the GitHub Authorization callback URL field, enter your team domain and add this to the end of the path: /cdn-cgi/access/callback. For example:

   https://<your-team-name>.cloudflareaccess.com/cdn-cgi/access/callback

6. Click Register application.

7. Copy the Client ID and Client Secret.

   

8. On the Teams dashboard, navigate to Settings > Authentication.

9. Under Login methods, click Add new.

10. Choose GitHub on the next page.

11. Paste in the Client ID and Client secret.

12. Click Save.

To test that your connection is working, navigate to Authentication > Login methods and click Test next to GitHub. If you have GitHub two-factor authentication enabled, you will need to first login to GitHub directly and return to Access.
