Importing archived repositories from GitHub

[Oli]

Would it be possible to either:

- Have an option to not import archived repositories from GitHub

- Import but mark them as archived in Compass automatically (And ideally refresh if any future repositories are archived)

At the moment I am having to go through all of our repositories and ensure they are both archived correctly on GitHub and then repeat the process on Compass and make sure that the two lists stay aligned.

This is awkward and could do with being streamlined as GitHub exposes archival status over its API.

Having hundreds of repositories to manage is what is preventing more uptake of Compass from our teams

Hi, @Oli , welcome to the Compass Community!

You make a good point regarding GitHub archived repositories. Our teams will work on an update so that the import utilities for existing repositories do not include archived ones. We'll let you know once the change is rolled out.

Thank you for your valuable feedback, and please, keep it coming!

@Oleksii Melnyk _MOY Apps_ @Oli I'm happy to announce that our teams recently released an update so that GitHub archived repositories will be filtered out during importing. Please let me know whether that addresses what you were asking for!

Also, don't hesitate to reach out if you have any other questions or ideas while using the product - we're here to help!

Thank you @Enrique Serrano Valle ! Should I remove all components and re-connect GitHub to see the changes?
