# GitHub

Use these instructions to set up GitHub as your SSO provider for Tonic Textual.

## **Create an OAuth application** <a href="#sso-github-oauth-app" id="sso-github-oauth-app"></a>

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** <a href="#sso-github-client-secret" id="sso-github-client-secret"></a>

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** <a href="#sso-github-textual-config" id="sso-github-textual-config"></a>

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**:

```
# Github SSO Config
# -----------------
#githubClientId: <client-id>
#githubClientSecret: <client-secret>
```

For Docker, in **.env**:

```
#SOLAR_SSO_GITHUB_CLIENT_ID=#<client ID>
#SOLAR_SSO_GITHUB_CLIENT_SECRET=#<client secret>
```

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.tonic.ai/textual/textual-install-administer/user-access-textual/textual-sso/textual-sso-github.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
