GitHub

Bring your GitHub developer tool spend into Pump View alongside your cloud costs. Pump pulls Copilot seat costs, GitHub Actions minutes, Packages storage, and Codespaces usage so you can see everything in one place.

Setup time: ~3 minutes

Access level: Read-only


Prerequisites

  • A fine-grained Personal Access Token (PAT). This token starts with github_pat_.... Classic tokens are not supported for this integration.

  • Your GitHub Organization set as the resource owner on the token. This scopes the token to your org's billing data, not your personal account.

  • Administration and GitHub Copilot Business permissions, both set to Read-only on the token.

  • Your GitHub Organization name. This is the slug that appears in your GitHub URL (e.g., github.com/pump-corppump-corp).


Setup Instructions

1. Create a Fine-Grained Personal Access Token

  1. In GitHub, go to Settings → Developer settings → Personal access tokens → Fine-grained tokens.

  2. Click Generate new token.

  3. Under Resource owner, select your Organization (not your personal account).

Note: If your organization doesn't appear in the dropdown, an org owner may need to enable fine-grained PAT access for the org. Go to Organization Settings → Personal access tokens → Settings and allow fine-grained tokens.

2. Set Permissions

Under Organization permissions, enable the following (both set to Read-only):

  • Administration

  • GitHub Copilot Business

You do not need to enable any repository permissions.

3. Generate and Copy the Token

Click Generate token and copy it immediately. It is only displayed once. The token will start with github_pat_....

4. Connect in Pump

  1. In Pump, go to Settings → Integrations.

  2. Find GitHub and click Connect.

  3. Paste your Personal Access Token.

  4. Enter your Organization name (the slug, e.g., pump-corp).

  5. Click Connect.

5. Verify

Pump validates your token and backfills up to 365 days of historical data. Your GitHub spend should appear alongside your cloud costs within a few minutes.

Frequently Asked Questions

My organization doesn't appear in the "Resource owner" dropdown.

Your org may not have fine-grained PATs enabled. An org owner needs to go to Organization Settings → Personal access tokens → Settings and allow fine-grained tokens. Some orgs also require admin approval for new tokens, so check if your token is pending approval.

Can I use a classic Personal Access Token?

No. Classic tokens don't support the granular organization-level permissions Pump needs. You must use a fine-grained token.

I set the permissions but Pump says the token is invalid.

Double-check that:

  • The Resource owner is set to your Organization, not your personal account.

  • Both Administration and GitHub Copilot Business are set to Read-only under Organization permissions.

  • The token hasn't expired. Fine-grained tokens have a configurable expiration date.

How far back does Pump pull data?

Pump backfills up to 365 days of historical data from the date you connect.

What happens when my token expires?

Pump will stop syncing new data. You'll need to generate a new fine-grained PAT with the same permissions and reconnect in Pump under Settings → Integrations.

Can I revoke the token later?

Yes. You can delete the token from GitHub at Settings → Developer settings → Personal access tokens → Fine-grained tokens at any time. This will disconnect the integration in Pump.

My data isn't showing up after connecting.

  • Confirm the token starts with github_pat_....

  • Verify the Organization name matches exactly (case-sensitive slug).

  • Ensure both required permissions are set to Read-only.

  • Wait a few minutes for the initial backfill.

  • If the issue persists, reach out to [email protected]envelope.
