AppVeyor - Share Project between users?


I'm very new to appveyor. We're having a contributor trying to setup CI for us on this repo https://github.com/kenakamu/UCWA2.0-CS/
So he forked https://github.com/lazaromenezes/UCWA2.0-CS/ and created the appveyor project under his account.
He gave upstream contributors permissions on his fork as well as administrator role on project in appveyor (including myself). I still can't see the project on my dashboard however and we couldn't find a clear anser in the documentation.
So the question is how can one share an appveyor project with somebody else so it appears on his/her dashboard?
issue we're using to track progress of CI implementation
Thanks!


Solution

  • AppVeyor permission model is not directly tied to GitHub one (because AppVeyor supports other version control systems as BitBucket, GitLab, VSTS etc).

    To see and manage some project, user should sign in to the account which contains that project. For that account owner (in your case that contributor who is trying to setup CI) or another user with Administrator role should create a user. Or if you already registered with AppVeyor as part of another account - a collaborator. If you already logged to another account, you need to switch.

    Also for GitHub, you can implement integration based on team, but this is optional.
