This Self-Serve Action allows you to centralize repository creation in configure8 using a golden path that codify your standards. We are also creating a service inside configure8 Universal Catalog via our API, keeping all new projects visible and organized.
Change the USER and REPO above to reflect your GitHub account. The workflow name (ssa-run-create-user-repository.yml) should be the same created in below section Backend setup - create workflow.
Create or use a repository that matches the YOUR_REPO name passed on the webhook URL.
Create a workflow to execute the action
Inside YOUR_REPO, create a new workflow with the same name we used in the Webhook URL, in this case 'ssa-run-create-user-repository.yml' with the following content:
name: 'SSA Create User Repository Workflow'
