Code integration

## Built into your support workflow

### Find the relevant implementation

Search indexed repositories for the code behind a customer’s question.

### Make answers easy to verify

Reference specific files in the investigation so your team can check the reasoning.

### Keep product knowledge current

Refresh repository context with periodic re-indexing.

## Check how the API handles a request.

### “Does this API still support the parameter we’re sending?”

Decimal searches the relevant implementation to understand how the parameter is handled. Together with a connected ticketing system and runtime logs, that code provides the context to explain the behavior and investigate a failed request.

## Connect your workspace

1. Open Settings → Integrations → GitHub in Decimal.
2. Install and authorize the Decimal GitHub App for your organization after reviewing its permissions.
3. Choose the repositories to index and allow the initial indexing to complete.

## Access and permissions

Install the Decimal GitHub App and choose which repositories to index. Review the app’s requested permissions during installation.

## Connection details

Initial indexing takes longer for large repositories. Decimal re-indexes periodically; connect logs separately to add runtime evidence.
