+Github webhook integration
+==========================
+
+Kanboard can be synchronized with Github.
+Currently, it's only a one-way synchronization: Github to Kanboard.
+
+Github webhooks are plugged to Kanboard automatic actions.
+When an event occurs on Github, an action can be performed on Kanboard.
+
+List of available events
+------------------------
+
+- Github commit received
+- Github issue opened
+- Github issue closed
+- Github issue reopened
+- Github issue assignee change
+- Github issue label change
+- Github issue comment created
+
+List of available actions

+- Change the category based on an external label
+- Create a comment from an external provider
+
+Configuration on Github
+-----------------------
+
+Go to your project settings page, on the left choose "Webhooks & Services", then click on the button "Add webhook".
+
+![Github configuration](http://kanboard.net/screenshots/documentation/github-webhooks.png)
+
+- **Payload url**: This url is available on Kanboard, go to "projects", select your project, at the bottom of the page, you have a section Github webhooks, just copy and paste the link.
+- Select **"Send me everything"**
+
+Each time an event happens, Github will send an event to Kanboard now.
+The Kanboard webhook url is protected by a random token.
+
+Everything else is handled by automatic actions in your Kanboard project settings.
+
+Examples
+--------
+
+### Close a Kanboard task when a commit pushed to Github
+
+- Choose the event: **Github commit received**
+- Choose the action: **Close the task**
+
+When one or more commits are sent to Github, Kanboard will receive the information, each commit message with a task number included will be closed.
