Hi @FalconSid ,

You may want to check/follow the steps documented on this link: https://cloud.google.com/build/docs/access-github-from-build

Hope this helps.

Hello @anjelisa  thanks for the update , actually I wanted connect using https ssh not allowed in my organization to connect github.example.com

Hello @FalconSid 

In order to connect to Private Git Repo, you need to save the Private SSH key in Secret Manager. And use that secret key during your build step.

I don't understand 3/4 of what i'm trying to do 🙂  Very confusing.

i cloned a public github repository, made it private.  it had a button that you click that would open Google cloud and push ?? the repository to cloud.

I'm trying to do that with my private github repository, but it does not seem to be working the same.  It just spins and says clone image error or something.

Here is the link :

Is there not something straightforward i can do to make this work?
