You can only import projects from external Git providers (GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, etc.). Projects stored in Prophecy-managed Git cannot be imported using this method.
Import a project
To import a project from Git:- Open Create Entity from the left sidebar.
- Hover over the Project tile.
- Click Import.
- Connect to the Git account that hosts your project repository.
- Select your repository from the Repository dropdown. If your repository doesn’t appear (common with forked repositories), paste the repository URL directly into the Repository field.
- Verify the Default Branch field auto-populates correctly.
- Keep the default root path or specify a path to the project folder within the repository.
- Click Continue.
-
Configure your project settings:
- Name: Display name for the project in Prophecy
- Description: Optional context about the project
- Team: The team that will own this project
- Project type: Prophecy automatically sets the language based on the repository content (cannot be changed)
- Provider: Where pipelines will execute
- Click Complete.
Import vs. clone
Importing a project connects directly to the existing repository without creating a new copy. This means:- Multiple Prophecy projects can point to the same Git repository
- Changes made in any connected project affect the shared repository
- All projects connected to the same repository will see each other’s commits
