GitHub Integration

Integrating GitHub into your Kavia project gives you complete version control, collaborative workflows, and deployment flexibility throughout the development lifecycle.

Git is a version control system that tracks code changes.
GitHub is the industry-standard platform for hosting Git repositories.
By connecting GitHub to your Kavia project, every change you make is backed up in real time, ensuring full transparency, safe collaboration, and the freedom to host your code wherever you choose.

Why Connect GitHub to Kavia?

When you link your project to GitHub, Kavia keeps both frontend and backend codebases always synced, backed up, and ready for team collaboration or external deployment.

Key Benefits of GitHub Integration

Version History & Backup

Kavia automatically tracks your code with Git. Every update is committed and synced to GitHub, allowing you to review changes, revert to previous versions, or recover lost work with ease.

Seamless Collaboration

Code stored on GitHub makes it easy for other developers to view, comment, and contribute via pull requests. Non-developers can also view the commit history for complete visibility into progress.

Real-Time Sync

Kavia maintains two-way sync with GitHub:

Edit in Kavia → Auto-pushes to GitHub
Push to GitHub → Auto-pulls into Kavia

Powerful Workflow Integration

Leverage GitHub’s features—like branches, pull requests, issues, or CI/CD pipelines—alongside Kavia’s AI-driven tools. For example, you can use GitHub Actions to deploy your app automatically when a feature is merged.

Flexible Deployment

Connecting to GitHub allows you to export and host your app anywhere—on your own infrastructure or a third-party platform. Even if you choose to deploy outside of Kavia, the editor continues to sync changes, so you never lose access to AI features or the development environment.

Kavia’s GitHub integration gives you the best of both worlds: intelligent, AI-assisted development inside the platform, and full professional-grade control outside of it.

Connecting Kavia to your GITHUB account

To start using GitHub with your Kavia project, you’ll need to connect your GitHub account and create or link a repository. This enables version control, team collaboration, and real-time syncing of your project’s code.

Kavia offers two ways to set it up:

Method 1: Connect from the admin dashboard

From the Kavia Home, go to your Dashboard.

Navigate to Settings in the left sidebar.

Select the SCM (Source Control Management) tab.

Choose GitHub as your integration option.

You will see a list of previously connected GitHub accounts (if any).

In the top-right corner, click the Connect to GitHub button.

A dialog will appear—click Connect with GitHub.

Follow the GitHub login and authorization steps to link your account.

Method 2: Connect During Project Setup

On the Project Welcome Screen, scroll to the Third-Party Integrations section.

Locate the GitHub integration card.

From the dropdown, select your GitHub account.

If it’s not listed, click Add Account and follow the authorization flow to connect your GitHub profile.

Choose an existing repository or create a new one to store your project’s code

Once connected, your GitHub account will be available across all projects in Kavia, and you can easily link repositories as needed during project setup or from individual project settings.
