Opening fix and upgrade pull requests from a fixed GitHub account

You can set a specific GitHub account to open, fix, and upgrade PRs, rather than use a GitHub user account picked randomly by Snyk.

Other operations not performed by the UI, such as daily and weekly tests, are still performed by Snyk Organization members who have connected their GitHub accounts to Snyk, picked randomly.

To use this feature:

1. In Snyk Web UI, navigate to Settings > Integrations > Source control > GitHub, and click Edit Settings.

2. Under Open Snyk automatic PRs from a fixed GitHub account, enter your GitHub personal access token. You can generate this from your GitHub account. See Managing your personal access token.

3. Click Save.

Ensure that the GitHub account for which the token is provided has write permissions or above to the repos you want to monitor with Snyk.

For more information about repository permission levels in GitHub, see GitHub integration.
