The GitHub for Atlassian app on the marketplace appears to work with Compass
Use GitHub development and security data across your Atlassian apps, like Jira, Compass, Rovo, and more. Get end-to-end visibility of your work and SDLC, with the right context in the right place and at the right time.
But on the Compass marketplace there is a different app: GitHub for Compass.
What is the difference between these apps?
I need to hook up to a GHES and this seems to be possible with GitHub for Atlassian but only possible with Webhooks on the GitHub for Compass app.
Can I just use GitHub for Atlassian and configure my GHES connectivity to see events in Compass? I'd much rather use this method than the webhook approach on offer in GitHub for Compass
Hi, @Paul O_Shaughnessy !
We're currently soft-rolling a seamless integration between GitHub for Atlassian and Compass, which is the preferred and default integration for Compass today for new Compass sites, as long as Jira and GitHub for Atlassian are already installed and configured, with US as their data residency region.
I believe the integration of Compass and GitHub for Atlassian can work for GHES - you're right that the Compass (Forge) GitHub App doesn't support this kind of integration, and that the other alternative would be using a GitHub Server incoming webhook.
If your site would meet the requirements for the GitHub for Atlassian integration, all you need to do is to provision a new Compass site and complete the onboarding flow - if your Jira projects are already connected with your GitHub instance, you'll see some of them imported from the beginning and starting to receive events and subsequently metric and health scorecard value updates.
You can also keep adding new connected Compass Components to your site using the Create > Import Components > Jira > Import option of your Compass instance.
Thanks @Enrique Serrano Valle This is helpful and timely as we have been experimenting with Compass and now want to roll it out to our users with GHE integration. If I understand correctly, the order of events we need to follow is:
1. Ensure my Jira instance is configured for US data residency.
2. Install GitHub for Atlassian and configure for GHE per this article
3. Provision a 'new' Compass site. Is this required? If we have components created with repository details is that sufficient for the flow of github data/events? It might be nice to start fresh, but I want to check if this is this is a 'must have'.
Can you confirm my understanding before I push ahead with the work
Thanks!
