Configure the GitHub integration in TigerAccess with your OAuth credentials and organization settings.
tacctl integrations add github \
--org=your-org-name \
--client-id=Iv1.abc123... \
--client-secret=ghp_secret... \
--team-mapping=admins:admin,developers:devConfigure SSH Certificates
Enable SSH certificate authentication for Git operations and verify repository access.
# Users can now login and get certificates
tac login --auth=github
# Use Git with certificate authentication
tac git clone [email protected]:org/repo.git
# Verify certificate-based access
tac git ls-remote [email protected]:org/repo.gitReal-World GitHub Scenarios
Secure Developer Access
Replace long-lived SSH keys and personal access tokens with short-lived certificates. Developers get seamless Git access with automatic certificate renewal and comprehensive audit trails.
Contractor & External Access
Grant temporary access to external contributors with automatic expiration. Track all repository access and enforce approval workflows for sensitive repositories.
GitHub Actions Security
Integrate TigerAccess with GitHub Actions to provide workflows with short-lived credentials for accessing infrastructure, eliminating stored secrets in repositories.
Compliance & Audit
Centralize audit logs from GitHub with infrastructure access logs. Track who accessed which repositories, when, and what operations they performed for SOC 2 and ISO 27001 compliance.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does TigerAccess integrate with GitHub SSO?
TigerAccess integrates with GitHub as an OAuth application or GitHub App. Users authenticate through GitHub, and TigerAccess maps GitHub organizations and teams to internal roles. This provides centralized identity management while leveraging GitHub as your identity provider.
Can I replace SSH keys with certificates for Git access?
Yes. TigerAccess issues short-lived SSH certificates (typically 1-12 hours) that replace traditional SSH keys. Users run "tac login" to get certificates, and all Git operations use these certificates automatically. This eliminates the risk of leaked long-lived SSH keys and provides comprehensive audit trails.
Does TigerAccess work with GitHub Enterprise Server?
Yes. TigerAccess supports both GitHub.com and GitHub Enterprise Server. For Enterprise Server, configure the integration with your self-hosted GitHub URL. All features including SSO, team sync, and SSH certificates work with Enterprise Server.
How does team mapping work between GitHub and TigerAccess?
TigerAccess automatically syncs GitHub teams and maps them to TigerAccess roles based on your configuration. For example, members of the "admins" GitHub team can be automatically assigned the "admin" role in TigerAccess. Team membership changes in GitHub are reflected in TigerAccess within minutes.
Can I use TigerAccess with GitHub Actions?
Yes. GitHub Actions workflows can authenticate to TigerAccess using OIDC tokens (GitHub's OIDC provider). This allows workflows to obtain short-lived credentials for accessing infrastructure without storing secrets in repository settings or workflow files. Configure the GitHub OIDC connector in TigerAccess and use the "tac login --auth=github-actions" command in your workflows.
