Jenkins GitHub OAuth Plugin

Overview

The GitHub OAuth plugin provides a means of securing a Jenkins instance by offloading authentication and authorization to GitHub. The plugin authenticates by using a GitHub OAuth Application. It can use multiple authorization strategies for authorizing users. GitHub users are surfaced as Jenkins users for authorization. GitHub organizations and teams are surfaced as Jenkins groups for authorization. This plugin supports GitHub Enterprise.

More comprehensive documentation is listed on the wiki page.

This plugin was last compiled with the following versions.

  • Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS
