GitHub Authorization
When you click “Add New Site” for the first time, you’ll be prompted to authorize Sitepins with GitHub:

Sitepins only requests the minimum necessary access to manage your repositories for deployment.
Missing a Repository?
If you don’t see the repository you’re looking for:
- Click “Configure on GitHub” (or GitLab)
- You’ll be redirected to your Git provider’s install flow
- Choose the repositories or organizations you want to grant Sitepins access to
- Return to Sitepins – your repo list will automatically refresh
Still not showing? Click “Refresh Repositories” or ensure the repo is under the same account you authorized.
What’s Next?
After creating your site, you’ll be taken to the configuration page where you’ll set up:
- Content folders
- Media storage locations
- Code folders (optional)
- Site configuration files (optional)
- Commit message preferences
Check out the Configure Your Site guide to complete your setup.
Auto Deploy
Once configured, all edits you make in Sitepins are committed directly to your Git repository.
If your site is connected to a deployment platform like Vercel, Netlify, or Cloudflare Pages, each commit from Sitepins will automatically trigger a build and deploy the latest changes to your live site.
