Private Repository Access and GitHub Invite Issues

The following things should be checked if you are having issues accessing rdkcentral GitHub private repositories:

1. If accessing private repositories please ensure you have associated your a PUBLIC GitHub ID with your RDK Central Account:
   1. RDK Central Github Profile Setup for Private Repository Access
2. Once step 1 is done you will receive a GitHub Invite to the email account associated with your PUBLIC GitHub Account that you associated with your rdkcentral account, make sure you click on the invite.
   1. if you haven't received the invite within 24 hours then please send a support request to support@rdkcentral.com
   2. check https://github.com/settings/emails to see what your public GitHub primary email and other accounts are configured as for the public account you are using
   3. make sure to check Junk/Spam/Filtered emails if you don't see it
   4. the invite remains valid for 7 days

Note GitHub invites will only have been issued if you are a member of Comcast GHEC or have raised a support ticket requesting access to a private repo.

Valid GHEC users will automatically receive the invite and do not need to raise a support ticket unless they haven't received it within 24 hours. 

If you entered an invalid GHEC or Public GitHub user ID the invite will not be sent until it is corrected.
