# GitHub

> Integrate GitHub Single Sign-On with Nile Auth

<Steps>
  <Step title="Setup GitHub Developer Portal">
    1. Create a [GitHub Developer](https://github.com/settings/developers) account.
    2. Follow the documentation for [creating an OAuth App](https://docs.github.com/en/developers/apps/building-oauth-apps/creating-an-oauth-app) in GitHub.
    3. Obtain a **Client ID** and **Client Secret** from [GitHub OAuth](https://github.com/settings/developers). Be sure to set the redirect URL to your application handling the Nile Auth requests.

           </Accordion>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Save Client ID and Client Secret in Nile">
    Save them to your database at `console.thenile.dev` under GitHub in **Tenants & Users -> Configuration**\\

  </Step>

  <Step title="Add the `GitHub` button to your login page">
    The button will redirect the user to GitHub for authentication. Upon successful authentication, the user will be redirected back to your application.

    ```jsx theme={null}
    import { GitHub } from '@niledatabase/react';

    function App() {
      return (
        <div>
          <GitHub callbackUrl="/" />
        </div>
      );
    }
    ```
  </Step>
</Steps>
