GitHub App OAuth
Integrate your application with the GitHub App OAuth API
🚀 Quickstart
Connect to GitHub App OAuth with Tenklo and see data flow in 2 minutes.
In Tenklo (free signup), go to Integrations -> Configure New Integration -> GitHub App OAuth.
Go to Connections -> Add Test Connection -> Authorize, then log in to GitHub App OAuth. Later, you'll let your users do the same directly from your app.
Let's make your first request to the GitHub API. Replace the placeholders below with your Environment API key, integration ID, and connection ID:
curl "https://api.tenklo.dev/proxy/repos" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer <NANGO-API-KEY>" \
-H "Provider-Config-Key: <INTEGRATION-ID>" \
-H "Connection-Id: <CONNECTION-ID>"Or fetch credentials with the Node SDK or API.
✅ You're connected! Check the Logs tab in Tenklo to inspect requests.
Follow our Auth implementation guide to integrate Tenklo in your app.
To obtain your own production credentials, follow the setup guide linked below.
