### GitHub as a Backend
|
||||
|
||||
When you're setting up a new CMS configuration you will need to authorize GitHub as your provider.
|
||||
The default Github-based authenticator integrates with Netlify's [Authentication Provider feature](https://www.netlify.com/docs/authentication-providers) and the repository
|
||||
backend integrates directly with Github's API.
|
||||
|
||||
To get everything hooked up, setup continuous deployment from Github to Netlify
|
||||
and then follow [the documentation](https://www.netlify.com/docs/authentication-providers)
|
||||
to setup Github as an authentication provider.

#### Authorizing GitHub as Provider
|

|
||||
If you already have your site on Netlify with continuous deployment from Github activated, you can setup the authentication with these steps:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Go to your GitHub Settings page.
|
||||
2. On the left menu, click “Oauth Applications”.
|
||||
3. Create a new OAuth application (you can name it anything you want), authorization callback must be: `https://api.netlify.com/auth/done`.
|
||||
4. Next, you need to go to your app settings on Netlify:
|
||||
1. Go to “Access” menu.
|
||||
2. On "Authentication Providers”, click “Install Provider”.
|
||||
3. Choose “GitHub” and copy the "API Client ID” and "API Secret” that GitHub gave you when you created an Oauth application there.
|
||||
|
||||
For detailed information on how to get everything hooked up, follow [the documentation](https://www.netlify.com/docs/authentication-providers).
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
That's it, now you should be able to go to the `/admin` section of your site and
|
||||
log in.
