Connect your PDI to Github to import application

[SatyakiBose]

I had been beating my head for over a week on how to import my application from Github to my PDI.

Finally fixed the issue by following the below steps.

On your GitHub account:

1. Login to your github account
2. Navigate to https://github.com/settings/tokens/new
3. Create a new token by selecting all the options for the scopes
4. Click on Generate token

On your PDI:

1. Navigate to https://xxxxx.service-now.com/discovery_credentials_list.do?sysparm_query=&sysparm_view=
2. Click on New
3. Select the connection type as Basic Auth Credentials
4. Give a name to the connection
5. Under username give the username for your Github account
6. Under password provide the token created above in the github account

On App Engine Studio:

1. Click on Import App
2. Under URL provide the repository link to Github
3. Under branch put master
4. Under credentials, use the credential created in your PDI instance above.

Thanks, this was really helpful! 

You are also able to navigate to App Engine Studio, and create a new App following the same advice as above to achieve the same result. 

Should you encounter an error or unsuccessful link, try creating a new App, rather than import.
