On the Options page, proceed to the Server & Repositories tab:

To add a new server, name your profile and choose the Git Server of your choice:
Gitoqlok connects to GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket Cloud, Bitbucket Server, Azure DevOps, Gitea, and AWS CodeCommit through their APIs. Hence you need to paste your token.
Token - is a special hash code that identifies your user and grants access rights to create repositories and make commits.
Generate new token
Each token in GitHub has pool of access rights. You need to select scope of your token.
Select "repo" scope for your token
After that you need to press the "Generate token" button.
Github successfully generates a token
Write up the API URL for the server type of your choice, paste your token, and check the connection:
Paste the generated token into User Personal Token field in Settings
Click on "Create connection" at the bottom of the page:

You will be redirected to the Applications Manager page. Learn more about Applications Manager here. You can skip this step and find Apps Manager later in Qlik Sense hub when opening Gitoqlok.
Eventually you will be redirected to the server profiles list. You may have several profiles for different server types and switch between them. If you want to modify your profile settings, click on "Configure".
