How do I import my project from GitHub?

Clone a public or private repository without exposing a token and verify the branch.

The file manager offers a GitHub import. For a private repository, use a repository-restricted token and revoke it after import if possible.

Step-by-step procedure

  1. Clean the repository

    Remove .env, tokens, passwords and large files. Add them to the .gitignore.

  2. Open Files

    Choose GitHub Import then enter the repository URL and branch.

  3. Authenticate a private repository

    Use a GitHub token with minimal scope. Never paste it into a project file.

  4. Install the dependencies

    After import, run npm ci or pip install -r requirements.txt depending on the runtime.

  5. Check startup

    Check the entry file and read the console on first launch.
