Microsoft Team Onboarding

If you are new to Microsoft, you will need to onboard into various GitHub projects in order to get your work done.

Getting Permissions

You first need to link your GitHub accoount so that you can use Microsoft's GitHub management tools.

• Link your GitHub account

There are two main teams to join to get access to Microsoft .NET-related projects.

• Add yourself to the microsoft team (dotnet org)
• Add yourself to the dotnet team (microsoft org)

Once your permission requests are approved, you should have write permissions to .NET Core Repos. Repo users will be able to @mention you at that point.

Service Accounts

Service accounts should also be linked. For more details, see Service accounts for GitHub.

Best Practices

• Use your full name for your account.
• Add a picture to your account.
• Add @dotnet or @microsoft as your Company in your profile.
• Make your Microsoft and dotnet org memberships public. Only do this if you have added a picture to your profile (as opposed to the auto-generated GitHub image).
