Overview of TeamScore GitHub Integration

The TeamScore GitHub integration provides organizations with clear visibility into their GitHub activity, helping you understand what's happening when team members create code or interact with GitHub.

How It Works

To set up the integration, you install the TeamScore app listed as a GitHub App in the GitHub Marketplace. Once installed, GitHub communicates important events to TeamScore, including:

• Pull requests being created
• Code commits and pushes
• Comments within the GitHub interface

This lets TeamScore track and display relevant high-level metadata about your team’s work without accessing the actual code.

Using Commit Messages to Track Time

Developers can include time tracking information by adding the hashtag symbol (#) followed by time data in their commit messages. TeamScore reads these values through the GitHub API and associates a duration to that specific commit.

This feature allows you to gain insightful, passive time tracking without any extra manual input.

Privacy and Security

TeamScore’s integration never ingests or stores your code. It only pulls commit messages, pull request titles, and other metadata that describe the activity. Your code remains secure and private, with no code representation inside TeamScore.

Benefits of the Integration

• Gain passive, accurate insights into developer activity
• Understand what your team is working on each day
• Ensure your codebase privacy is maintained
• Use high-level metadata to improve visibility without technical burden

With the TeamScore GitHub integration, you get a powerful way to connect your GitHub activity to your team’s performance metrics seamlessly and securely.
