GitFlowy

Create a fine-grained GitHub Personal Access Token (PAT) with read-only access so GitFlowy can check your PR review backlog and keep reviews moving.

Set up your token

  1. Open GitHub Developer settingsPersonal access tokensFine-grained tokens.
  2. Click Generate new token. Name it GitFlowy and set an expiration (recommended).
  3. Choose where it applies: All repositories or limit to a specific org/repo.
  4. Under Repository permissions, give read access needed to list pull requests and review status (keep it minimal / least privilege).
  5. Click Generate token, then copy it immediately — GitHub won’t show it again.
  6. Paste it into the GitFlowy popup under GitHub token, set your urgency threshold (default 24 hours), then hit Save.
🛡️
Security tip: treat your PAT like a password. If you ever suspect it’s exposed, revoke it in GitHub settings and generate a new one.

GitFlowy only uses this token to read repository + PR data so it can show your traffic-light status and highlight stale PRs.
