Valoryx Cloud can sync your documentation with a GitHub repository. This gives you the best of both worlds: a beautiful web editor AND the full power of git.

Why connect GitHub?

  • Backup — your docs are always safe in GitHub, even if you cancel your account
  • IDE editing — developers on your team can edit docs in VS Code, Vim, or any editor
  • Pull requests — use GitHub’s PR workflow for doc reviews before publishing
  • Version history — full git blame, diff, and rollback for every change
  • CI/CD integration — trigger builds or tests when docs change

How it works

You edit in browser → auto-saves → auto-commits → pushes to GitHub
                                                        ↕
Teammate pushes from IDE → GitHub → webhook → pulls to Valoryx

Changes flow in both directions automatically. You never have to think about syncing.

Setting up

  1. Go to Workspace SettingsGit Sync
  2. Click Connect GitHub
  3. Authorize Valoryx to access your repositories
  4. Select the repo and branch to sync with
  5. Done — your workspace is now connected

What gets synced

Every page in your workspace maps to a .md file in the repository:

your-repo/
├── getting-started.md
├── api/
│   ├── authentication.md
│   └── endpoints.md
├── guides/
│   ├── deployment.md
│   └── troubleshooting.md
└── .docplatform.yaml     ← workspace metadata

Do I need GitHub?

No. GitHub sync is completely optional. Valoryx Cloud works perfectly without it. Your docs are stored securely on our servers. GitHub adds backup and IDE access — but it’s not required for any feature to work.
