GitHub + Foldr Integration
GitHub is the dominant git host. Use Foldr to attach release assets larger than GitHub's 2GB limit or host files too sensitive for a public repo, then link from release notes.
How to Connect GitHub to Foldr
Create an inbound webhook in GitHub
In GitHub's webhook / automation settings, add a new webhook that fires on the event you care about.
Point the webhook at Foldr
Use https://foldr.space/api/v1/webhooks/ingest?token=<your-foldr-webhook-token> — Foldr accepts JSON bodies and deduplicates by source ID.
Add an outgoing Foldr webhook (optional)
If you want events to flow the other way (Foldr → GitHub), add your GitHub webhook URL to your Foldr workspace settings.
Common Use Cases
- Upload CI job artifacts from GitHub to Foldr for shareable public URLs
- Store GitHub backups on Foldr on a cron schedule
- Attach Foldr URLs to GitHub issues, PRs, or runs
- Post Foldr links to GitHub dashboards or alerts
GitHub + Foldr FAQ
How do I connect Foldr to GitHub?
You connect Foldr to GitHub via Webhook. Full steps are listed above under "How to Connect". In short: create a Foldr API key, configure the Webhook integration pointed at https://foldr.space/api/v1/, and map GitHub's data into Foldr's request body.
Do I need a paid Foldr plan to use GitHub with Foldr?
The Foldr free tier supports basic uploads via the API with 7-day expiry. For integration use with GitHub — higher rate limits, permanent storage, multiple API keys, and webhook subscriptions — Foldr Pro (from $5/mo) is recommended.
What Foldr features can I call from GitHub?
From GitHub you can invoke any Foldr action: uploading files (up to 2 GB each), creating short links, generating bio pages, creating hosted forms, and reading download analytics. See the Foldr API docs for the full endpoint list.
Is there an official Foldr app for GitHub?
Not a first-party app — Foldr integrates with GitHub through Webhook, which is usually a better fit because it doesn't require installing an extra app. If you'd rather have a native integration, let us know at foldr.space/contact.
