Choose repositories and measurement settings

Activate the repositories that should contribute to delivery metrics and scoring.

Audience: owners, administrators
Required role: Owner or administrator.
Product access: Measure
Navigation path: Onboarding > Choose repositories, or Settings > Integrations > GitHub

Outcome

Activate the repositories that should appear in engineering metrics and apply the correct measurement behavior.

Before you begin

A healthy GitHub App connection
Repository access granted in the GitHub App installation

Repository selection step with available repositories and measurement choices. — Choose the repositories to measure and activate the selection to start backfill.

Mobile repository selection step with available repositories and activation controls. — Repository selection remains readable and actionable on a narrow mobile viewport.

Select repositories

Start with repositories that represent active product delivery. Exclude generated mirrors, vendored code, archives, and repositories whose pull requests should not affect team trends.

1
Open repository selection
Continue from onboarding or open the GitHub integration settings.
2
Review availability
Use organization and repository names to confirm that the correct GitHub installation is active.
3
Activate repositories
Select each repository you want FeatureFactory to import and measure, then save.

Set measurement behavior

Use scoring settings to control exclusions and analysis behavior for your organization. Keep defaults for the first import unless your repositories have known generated paths or unusual branch conventions.

Expected result

Activated repositories enter backfill automatically. Their status changes as pull requests, commits, identities, and deployments are imported and processed.

Change access later

Add or remove repository access in the GitHub App installation, then refresh the integration. Deactivating a repository stops future synchronization; retention settings determine how existing records are handled.

Connect the GitHub App

Install the GitHub App with the repository permissions FeatureFactory needs.

Understand backfill and sync progress

Track the initial history import, ongoing synchronization, and recoverable failures.

Configure AI attribution

Choose attribution signals and understand known, estimated, mixed, and unknown work.
