How Adaptive works with GitHub

Use Adaptive's GitHub integration to connect your GitHub account for workflow automation and issue tracking within Adaptive.

Use GitHub with Adaptive to give requesters, resource owners, approvers and service teams a governed workflow for Adaptive access requests and approval workflows. Instead of relying on out-of-band approvals and manually tracked access decisions, teams get identity-aware controls and a connected record for review.

Adaptive routes resource requests into the team's existing workflow and connects each recorded decision to the resulting access window.

Every request is evaluated against the approval workflow used by the teams that own each resource. Teams can then use evidence covering requests, decisions, approvers and access context without piecing together identity, approval and resource records from separate systems.

Access controls

What Adaptive adds to GitHub

Approvals where teams work

For GitHub, bring access requests and decisions into an established collaboration or service-management workflow.

Context for approvers

For GitHub, give reviewers the requester, resource and requested duration needed to make an informed decision.

Traceable decisions

For GitHub, keep the approval connected to the resulting access for audits and incident reconstruction.
