Under Where can this GitHub App be installed?, select Any account, then click Create GitHub App. On GitHub Enterprise Server the app still stays inside your instance, and Only on this account would stop you installing it on an organization.

On the app's page, copy the Client ID. Under Client secrets, click Generate a new client secret and copy it. GitHub shows it only once.

In the app's sidebar, click Install App, then Install next to each organization StackOne should read, and choose the repositories. For compliance checks choose All repositories; repositories left out are missing from every list, with no error.

Find your server URL

Use the address you open GitHub Enterprise Server at, such as `https://github.example.com`. Only the host name is used, so a path such as an organization page or `/api/v3` is ignored. The connection always uses `https://`, even if you type `http://`.

Linking the Account from the Hub

Use one of the three Linking Account Methods to access the Hub. Fill out the following fields using details from your provider:
  • GitHub Enterprise Server URL
  • Client ID
  • Client Secret
  • Organization ID (Optional)
  • Click Connect
  • If applicable, the provider will redirect you to a sign-in or authorization page. Complete the provider's authorization flow.
  • Once authorization is successful, you will see a confirmation popup

If the account linking is successful, you will see the newly linked account in your Accounts page.

## Next Steps
