I'm unable to connect a GitHub repository to my Railway project. When I click "Connect Repo" in the Railway dashboard, I'm redirected to a GitHub URL that returns a 404 error.
Problem: The URL that fails is:
github.com/apps/railway-app/installations/new/permissions?target_id=7016483
I've also tried visiting https://github.com/apps/railway-app directly and clicking "Install," but that also returns a 404 error ("not the page I'm looking for").
What I've checked:
Visited the Railway GitHub App page directly
Clicked "Install" from the GitHub UI
Checked my GitHub installed apps — I see 12 available options including "Railway Deploy" and "Deploy to Railway," but none appear to be the official Railway app
Cleared cache and tried multiple timesImpact: I'm unable to connect my GitHub repository to deploy via Git push. This is blocking me from using Railway to deploy my code.

Your Railway account does not currently have a GitHub account linked, which is required before you can connect a repo. Go to Account Settings and link your GitHub account under the GitHub integration section, then return to your project and use "Connect Repo" from there. If the GitHub App page at github.com/apps/railway-app still returns a 404 when you visit it directly, your GitHub account or organization may have third-party app access restrictions enabled, which you can check under your GitHub organization settings.
