GitHub repo not showing in Connect Repo picker despite correct App/account connection

I'm trying to restore push-to-deploy (git push auto-triggering a Railway deploy) for this service, but the service's Settings → Source → "Connect Repo" picker doesn't show any of my repos, and searching for the exact URL (https://github.com/daniyalsultan/Invite-ellie-backend) returns "No repositories found".

What I've already checked/tried, all confirmed correct:

  • Railway GitHub App is installed on my GitHub account (daniyalsultan) with "All repositories" access (confirmed on github.com/settings/installations, it now shows "Installed" with full repo access).
  • Railway Account Settings → Account Integrations shows GitHub "Connected as daniyalsultan" with a green checkmark, and "Railway App installed" also shows a green checkmark.
  • Hard-refreshed the page and retried the Connect Repo search, same result.

Despite all of the above showing correctly connected, the repo picker for this specific service instead shows repos from other, unrelated GitHub accounts (not mine), suggesting some kind of stale internal binding tied to a different GitHub identity for this project/workspace.

Currently working around this by deploying via railway up from the CLI, which works fine but I'd like push-to-deploy restored. Can you help identify and fix whatever internal binding is causing this?

Since the picker is surfacing repos from a different GitHub identity, the fix is to unlink and relink the GitHub integration from your Railway account settings to clear the stale binding, then in the project canvas use Add → GitHub Repository → Refresh to force a repo-list cache refresh before retrying Connect Repo on the service.
