GitHub

Connect GitHub to enrich every anomaly insight with deployment context. Know immediately if a metric change is linked to a recent commit, pull request, or release.

When a critical KPI shifts, the first question is: Did our latest deployment cause this?

Without development context, teams waste hours cross-referencing Git logs with dashboards. DataLight + GitHub integration closes that gap. We automatically link anomalies in business or product metrics to code changes, commits, and releases so engineering, product, and data teams can align on the cause in minutes instead of days.

Benefits
  • Release Context: Quickly see if a recent commit, pull request, or release aligns with an anomaly.

  • Automated Root Cause: AI cross-checks GitHub events against performance data (e.g., GA4, Stripe, Amplitude) to find the exact deployment responsible.

  • Cross-Team Visibility: Share anomaly alerts with product, data, and engineering teams enriched with GitHub context, reducing back-and-forth.

  • Effortless Setup: No custom scripts or DevOps overhead — connect GitHub once and DataLight handles correlation automatically.

How it works

Get actionable insights with development context in minutes:

  1. One-Click Connection: Select “GitHub” and authorize with secure OAuth login.

  2. Context Matching: DataLight correlates GitHub events (commits, pull requests, releases) with anomalies in connected sources like GA4, Stripe, or Mixpanel.

  3. Automated Root Cause: When anomalies occur, alerts are enriched with the exact deployment or release link, giving your team immediate answers.

Security

Your GitHub data is handled with enterprise-grade security:

  • Read-only Access: We only read repository event metadata (commits, PRs, releases). We cannot access or modify code.

  • Encrypted Storage: All extracted event metadata is encrypted, pseudonymized, and stored in segregated secure vaults.

  • Full Control: Disconnect DataLight at any time from your GitHub account settings to revoke access instantly.

FAQs

Answers to top questions

Explore detailed answers to the most commonly asked questions about our platform, features, integrations

Can DataLight access my actual code in GitHub?

No. DataLight only reads repository event metadata (commits, PRs, releases). Your source code remains completely inaccessible.

How does GitHub integration improve anomaly detection?

By adding deployment context to alerts, DataLight helps teams immediately see if a release, commit, or pull request caused a metric change.

Can I connect multiple repositories?

Yes. You can connect multiple GitHub repositories to DataLight, and anomalies will be matched against events from all authorized repos.
