Overview

Spendflo connects with GitHub to provide you with information on its license and role info, provide de-provisioning capabilities, and help you optimize your SaaS cost.

Features and Limitations

Features

• See different GitHub license types and their utilization within Spendflo
• Reclaim and offboard unused licenses of GitHub from within Spendflo
• Iron out deleted users from HRMS integration and reclaim their GitHub licenses
• Send the in-activity report directly from the Spendflo app to any email address.
• Activities tracked: A Git branch or tag is created or deleted. One or more commits are pushed to a repository branch or tag. Any activity related to pull requests, like creating, reviewing, or commenting.

Limitations

• Admin Access is required to create this integration.
• Github doesn't provide users' email addresses; it only provides user names. So, the licenses page may not display the user's email address. Secondly, sometimes, a user may push code to their Github account via git configured with their personal email address. Thus, the email addresses that appear on the "Users" tab on the product details page may also include email addresses with different domains from your organization.
• By default, Github provides activity data only for the last 24 hours since the integration was completed. Thus, we recommend you wait till the completion of the threshold period to remove the inactive users for accuracy. For example, if the Inactive period threshold is 30 days, you must wait for at least 30 days to identify the inactive users.
