‘It is required to install our GitHub Application’ error occurs right after changing the organization member role to ‘Owner’

Prerequisites:

  • You have a GitHub organization with at least one non-owner member.

  • You have a GitHub Cloudback application installed in your organization.

  • Cloudback Dashboard is accessible for the organization owners only.

Steps to reproduce:

  • Change the organization member role to ‘Owner’.

  • Open the Cloudback Dashboard.

Expected result:

  • The Cloudback Dashboard is accessible.

Actual result:

  • The ‘It is required to install our GitHub Application’ error occurs.

Root cause:

  • GitHub does not send any notification of a role change of the organization member to the GitHub application. Cloudback uses cached data. It is a known issue, confirmed by the GitHub Support Team.

Workaround:

  • Remove the member from the organization.

  • Re-add the member to the organization with the Owner role.
