Prerequisites

  1. A PlayerZero account – you can get started by creating an account.
  2. Sufficient permissions to grant PlayerZero read access to your code and read/write access for managing pull requests in your SCM (Source Control Management) system.
To connect SCM systems, admin permissions are required on the repository you want to integrate.

Process

1

Create or Join a Project

Inside the PlayerZero platform, create a new project or join an existing project (project owners can invite new users through email).
2

Connect Your Code

Grant PlayerZero read access to your code and read/write access for managing pull requests in your SCM system.
3

Enable Specific Repositories

Select which repositories PlayerZero should monitor.
4

Allow for Processing

PlayerZero begins processing data to surface relevant insights.

Create or Join a Project

If you’re creating a project for the first time

  1. Create an account
  2. Name and create a workspace
    If you want other teammembers with the same email domain to be able to automatically join, check the “Allow anyone with @domain emails to join this project.” box.

If you’re joining an existing project

  1. Create an account
  2. If sharing has been setup correctly for the desired project, the name of the project will appear.
    If you do not see the “Join an existing project” option, but rather just the “Create a new project” option, then contact your project admin and ask them to either invite you directly or enable domain sharing.

If you want to create/join an additional project

At the top-left of the PlayerZero portal, select the option to create/join a new project. If you don’t see the project you’re looking for listed, contact your project admin and ask them to either invite you directly or enable domain sharing.

Connect & Enable Repositories

To connect PlayerZero to your version control and select which repositories to monitor, follow the guide for your SCM: Each guide walks you through:
  1. Authorizing PlayerZero with the required permissions
  2. Picking the repositories (and primary branch) you’d like PlayerZero to analyze
Admin permissions are required on the repositories you connect.

Allow for Ingestion

Once you’ve enabled your repositories, PlayerZero will begin analyzing the code to surface relevant insights. This process can take anywhere from a few minutes to several hours, depending on the size and complexity of your repositories.
