There was quite a bit of traffic on this list about having a credential that is able to comment on GitHub PRs, but we (Phoenix project) still have this problem.
What I am trying to do is posting a comment on the PR like this: https://github.com/apache/phoenix/pull/940#issuecomment-716666308 (Development versions of Yetus are supposed to be able to add the same information to the *Checks* tab, but that's not what I'm after this time) I have tried these credentials: asf-ci 9fa62308-3a11-4abe-a22a-b6bb63d07362 b0c25240-9660-4100-b67d-b3bdb2609cd6 683f5dcf-5552-4b28-9fb1-6a6b77cf53dd but Yetus is not able to comment on the PR with these, additionally I get the following message in the Jenkins log: Could not update commit status, please check if your scan credentials belong to a member of the organization or a collaborator of the repository and repo:status scope is selected I have added a personal access to my GitHub account, that has *repo:status * and* public_repo* permissions (only), to the Jenknis credentials, and the job works as expected and can comment to GitHub. I would like to have a way to add comments that do not reply on my personal account. I can see that the HBase project uses a separate github account credential *apache-hbase-at-github.com <http://apache-hbase-at-github.com>* for this purpose. That solution would be fine for us too, but I could not find a way to grant permissions to any account to our repos. I'd like to have either a credential in Jenkins that is able to comment to repos, or help with granting permission to a github robot account to the repos, so that I can use that instead of mine for the job. best regards Istvan
