Link multiple GitHub accounts?

3 months ago

Is is possible to link multiple GitHub accounts to your Railway account? I have several GitHub accounts under different aliases to separate my professional/personal/gaming projects and names, but I am running into an issue where I must approve all deployments from commits from my non-personal GH accounts.

Ideally I would just have separate Railway accounts for this, but as I understand there are rules limiting users to 1 account per person.

If I can't link multiple GitHub accounts, is there a workaround for this?

Many thanks,

Thaum

@Thaumanovic - You cannot link multiple GitHub accounts to a single Railway account, but if the GitHub account that is linked is part of the other GitHub orgs, you will be able to deploy them all the same, no approval needed.

Oh okay, I'll give that a try. I was under the impression that Railway checked the commiter's email against everyone in the workspace, tho I suppose that does not make sense for larger orgs where not every dev will have a Railway account.

I suppose my personal (Railway-linked) GitHub account would still need to be a part of the GitHub org itself?

@Thaumanovic That is correct.

For example, I have my personal GitHub account linked to Railway, and that GitHub account has been added to two Railway orgs, so I can directly deploy anything from the Railway orgs, and also have them automatically deploy.

And my personal GitHub has also been added to other people's individual GitHub repos, I can also deploy them, and have them deploy automatically.

My personal GitHub is being used to sign into my personal account, but I also have a company account which is still connected to my personal GitHub. I want to make it so it's not on my personal GitHub; I want to make it on another GitHub, and it seems that Railway doesn't allow me to do that.

What should be happening is that my personal account only has my personal GitHub, and my work account can have a different work GitHub. This is currently very frustrating because I can't auto deploy from my personal to my personal account, and if I switch GitHub Connections, it messes up my work GitHub account.
