# GitHub
Use these instructions to set up GitHub as your SSO provider for Tonic Textual.
## **Create an OAuth application**
1. In GitHub, navigate to **Settings -> Developer Settings -> OAuth Apps**, then create a new application.
2. For **Application Name**, enter **Textual**.
3. For **Homepage URL**, enter `https://textual.tonic.ai`.
4. For **Authorization callback URL**, enter `https://your-textual-url/sso/callback/github`.
Replace `your-textual-url` with the URL of your Textual instance.
## **Create a client secret**
After you create the application, to create a new secret, click **Generate a new client secret**.
You use the client ID and the client secret in the Textual configuration.
## **Textual configuration**
After you complete the configuration in GitHub, you uncomment and configure the required [environment variables](/textual/textual-install-administer/configuring-textual/textual-env-var-configure.md) in Textual.
For Kubernetes, in **values.yaml**:
