Github repo not visible on Railway

I have a Github account and an organisation

I have a repo on organisation and want to add that to railway

Now I have given railway access to all my repos on personal account as well as organisation account.

I can see the repos in my personal account on Add-> Github repo list but none of the repos on organisation account.

I have seen similar issues listed on help page and did the diagnostics (checking the access on github settings-> github apps) and none of them work.

On these threads, they were automatically marked as resolved due to loss of further conversation.

I guess this issue exists then and is real and unsolved by railway.

Repo access alone isn't always enough for organisation repos, because the Railway GitHub App has to be installed on the organisation itself, and any pending permission update on that installation must be accepted in GitHub. If you're not an owner of the organisation, an org owner may need to approve the install or permission change before its repos appear.

After that, in your project canvas use Add, then GitHub Repository, then Refresh to force the repo list to update, since access changes can take a few minutes to show up. If the organisation repos still don't appear, uninstall the Railway GitHub App from the organisation and reinstall it, then unlink and relink GitHub from your Railway account.

I am the org owner

The railway app is installed on the organisation and has been given all permissions.

I un-installed the railway app from there and re-installed it. Still I see nothing.

You can try refresh the repo cache

Open your Project Canvas > Add Service > Select Github Repositories > Click the Refresh button

Meme time:

Open a web service

User reports a technical problem

Provide the user most basic troubleshooting tips which he already performed

User reports issue persists

Auto-mark the issue as resolved

No open issues, user forgets about it and is paying a monthly subscription while basic cross platform compatibility is broken

Railway, I would appreciate if a "HUMAN" from your tech team could help me out instead of the ai
