Why teams connect GitHub and Onelogin

Keep the users, groups, and profile details that GitHub and Onelogin share consistent in real time, so who can work in GitHub always matches who your directory in Onelogin says belongs there.

Onelogin is where a company records who its people are: their accounts, the groups and roles they hold, and the attributes attached to each one. GitHub is where a slice of those same people do their work, as agents, members, or seats, and every one of them needs a matching account with the right access. When a directory and a productivity tool are maintained by hand, someone added, moved, or offboarded in one becomes a stale entry in the other within the hour.

Stacksync syncs Releases, Workflow runs (Actions), Organizations and Teams, Users in GitHub with Apps (app instances), Groups, Mappings (mapping rules), Events in Onelogin bi-directionally and in real time. A user created, renamed, moved between groups, or deactivated in either system updates the matching record in the other within seconds, with field-level mapping and conflict resolution in place of CSV uploads and nightly IT batch jobs.

That matters most at the edges of employment. When both systems agree on who has an account, which groups they belong to, and whether they are still active, granting access on day one and revoking it on the last day stops being a manual checklist that trails the directory.

Common use cases

  • 01 Two-way sync of GitHub issues with Jira, Linear, or a support system so engineering and customer-facing teams work in their own tools.
  • 02 Mirror repository, PR, and workflow-run data into a Postgres database for engineering-metrics reporting.
  • 03 Two-way sync Users between OneLogin and an HRIS or Postgres so new hires, attribute changes, and terminations provision and deprovision SSO accounts automatically.
  • 04 Read the OneLogin Events audit log into a warehouse or SIEM for login analytics, access reviews, and SOC 2 audit evidence.

Common sync patterns

Provision access when someone joins

A user added to Onelogin, or moved into a group inside it, gets the matching account or membership created in GitHub, so a new hire can start working without a separate setup ticket.

Close access when someone leaves

When a user is disabled or removed in Onelogin, their account in GitHub is deactivated in step, so offboarding shuts down access everywhere instead of leaving a live login behind.

Keep profile attributes current

A person's name, email, department, manager, or phone number corrected in either system updates the other, so the productivity tool shows the same details the directory holds of record.

What you can sync between GitHub and Onelogin

Representative objects on each side — any object or custom field can map to any target. Schemas are auto-detected; types are converted between the two systems.

GitHub objects Onelogin objects How this pairing syncs
Users Author and assignee identities matched to internal directories. Users User accounts (email, username, custom attributes, status, roles); full CRUD via the v2 Users API - create, update, delete, set password, lock/unlock, and add or remove role assignments. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions. Custom fields on either side are included in the mapping.
Pull Requests Review state, status checks, and merge status feed engineering dashboards and workflow tools. Mappings (mapping rules) Attribute-driven rules that assign roles and app access; full CRUD via the Mappings API, then reapplied across matching users. Pull Requests is specific to GitHub and Mappings (mapping rules) to Onelogin — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Commits Read-only history used to link code activity to tickets and releases. Events Audit log of every authentication and admin action; read-only, filtered by since/until, and pushed live through the Event Webhook. Commits is specific to GitHub and Events to Onelogin — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Releases Tagged versions synced into changelogs, CRMs, or customer-notification systems. Authentication factors (MFA) Per-user registered MFA factors; enrolled, verified, and removed through the MFA API for lifecycle and security workflows. Releases is specific to GitHub and Authentication factors (MFA) to Onelogin — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Workflow runs (Actions) CI results synced into incident and reporting systems. Custom user fields Account-level custom attributes on the User record; read and written alongside the standard user profile fields. Workflow runs (Actions) is specific to GitHub and Custom user fields to Onelogin — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Organizations and Teams Membership data synced with identity systems and HR directories for access reviews. Roles Roles that bundle app access; created, updated, and deleted via the Roles API, with users, admins, and apps assigned to each role. Organizations and Teams is specific to GitHub and Roles to Onelogin — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between GitHub and Onelogin

Each direction of the sync is driven by what the source system can signal and what the destination accepts — detection, delivery, and expected latency below.

GitHub Onelogin Sub-second propagation

DetectionGitHub notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks with a broad event catalog covering issues, pull requests, pushes, and releases.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Onelogin through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Onelogin GitHub Sub-second propagation

DetectionOnelogin notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Event Webhook (Event Broadcaster) posts batches of Event objects to a registered endpoint in near real time.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to GitHub through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Rate-limit considerations

  • GitHub: Authenticated REST requests are limited to 5,000 per hour per user; GitHub Apps scale limits per installation.
  • Onelogin: Account-level limit of 5,000 API calls per hour shared across all access tokens; responses carry X-RateLimit-Limit, X-RateLimit-Remaining, and X-RateLimit-Reset, over-limit calls return HTTP 429, and the count resets each hour. Paid plans can request an increase.

Authentication
OAuth 2.0 client credentials - an admin generates an API credential pair (client_id + client_secret) in the OneLogin portal and exchanges it at POST /auth/oauth2/v2/token for a bearer access token sent on every call; each credential carries a scope (Manage all, Manage users, Read users, etc.) that governs read vs write.

Event Webhook (Event Broadcaster) posts batches of Event objects to a registered endpoint in near real time; the Events API also supports polling with since/until time filters and pagination for historical backfill.
