How to Fix AWS Transform Not Detecting Github Repositories

Select Language:

If you’re having trouble getting your AWS Transform job to connect with your GitHub repositories, here are some simple steps to help you troubleshoot and fix the issue.

First, check your GitHub App settings. Even if you have installed the AWS Connector for GitHub, it might not have access to the right repositories. After installing the app, you need to specify which repositories the app can access. Go into your GitHub App configuration and make sure the repositories you want to work with are included in the access list.

Next, make sure you’re an active member of the project that holds your repositories. Sometimes, you might see the repositories list as empty because you haven’t accepted a project invitation or aren’t recognized as a member. Confirm your membership status and accept any pending invitations if needed.

Also, double-check that your AWS connection was created in the same region where you’re trying to run your transformation job. If the connection was set up in an incorrect region, it won’t work correctly. If needed, create a new connection in the right region using your existing installation ID.

Another thing to look into is whether the repository administrators have approved the connector. Sometimes, the admin of the GitHub repository must grant explicit permission for AWS Transform to access the repositories. Contact the repository admin to see if any approval is pending and get it sorted.

Here’s what you should do next:
– Review your GitHub App settings to ensure repository access is properly set up.
– Confirm the AWS connection is created in the right region.
– Talk to your repository administrators to verify all permissions and approvals are in place.
– Make sure your IAM role has the correct permissions to use the connection.

If you’ve checked everything and still face issues, try recreating the connection. Sometimes, starting fresh can solve lingering problems. If that doesn’t work, reaching out to AWS support can provide further assistance tailored to your setup.

These steps should help you get your repositories connected smoothly and your AWS Transform job running without problems.
