# GitHub Connector

[Set Noa](https://tajo.io/set-noa/)

Connector status: Planned Not built yet. Tajo does not run this connector today.

| Source field | Destination field | Sample value |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `record.id` | `source_id` | `record_1042` |
| `record.updated_at` | `updated_at` | `2026-10-18T08:00:00Z` |
| `record.value` | `value` | `sample_value` |

Tajo does not run a GitHub connector today. The code can hold a GitHub connection, but it has no actions: nothing reads from or writes to GitHub.

## Planned, not built

- Issue, pull request and release events
- Contributors as contacts

## Open-Source Implementation Map

This section is derived from official or public repository material discovered for the GitHub connector. Use it as the engineering companion to the setup guide above: it shows where the API surface lives, what implementation assets exist, and how Tajo should translate them into reliable Brevo sync behavior.

### Tajo Revamp Checklist

- Keep authentication setup aligned with the vendor docs and the public repository’s current API shape.
- Map primary resources into explicit Tajo sync objects with stable external IDs.
- Prefer cursor-based or updated-at incremental sync where the API exposes it; otherwise document the fallback.
- Treat webhook handlers as idempotent and replay-safe, especially for order, contact, ticket, and campaign events.
- Capture pagination, rate limits, retry headers, and partial-failure behavior in connector smoke tests.
- Keep examples small and runnable against sandbox or test-mode accounts.
