I need help with my account because Railway is linked to a specific GitHub account, but I need to switch to a different one since my repository isn't showing up on the current account. I tried disconnecting Railway from my GitHub account and received a message confirming it was done successfully; however, Railway still shows it as connected, and I have no way to connect it.

The repository picker and your Railway login connection are related but separate. Before changing the connected GitHub identity, try repairing the repository access:
- Open Railway Account Settings → Integrations → GitHub and choose Configure/Edit Scope.
- In GitHub, confirm the Railway GitHub App is installed on the personal account or organization that owns the repository.
- Grant the app access to that repository and accept any pending permission update.
- Return to Railway, wait briefly, then use New → GitHub Repository → Refresh.
Railway documents these requirements here:
https://docs.railway.com/deployments/github-autodeploys
https://docs.railway.com/services
If you genuinely need to replace the GitHub identity, first make sure the Railway account has another working sign-in method so you do not lock yourself out. Then disconnect the old GitHub integration and reconnect while signed into the intended GitHub account. If Railway continues showing the old account after a fresh sign-in session, contact Railway Support because the account link may need to be cleared on their side.
