If something's not right

• An approver who isn’t on the bypass list clicks Publish and Orbit explains that GitHub only accepts changes to the live branch through its own review. Add them to the bypass list (step 4) — or they can finish it on GitHub as a pull request.
• An editor without write access can’t send to testing; Orbit shows the push error. Give them the Write role (step 2). Signed in with GitHub, they’re shown as a viewer instead, so they never reach that error.
• “Your GitHub sign-in can’t reach this site” — Orbit MD isn’t added to the repository (step 5), or the person signed in to a different GitHub account. See Sign in with GitHub.

Prefer every change reviewed on GitHub?

Set Settings ▸ Branches ▸ Go live to Through your git host’s review (goLive: pullRequest in the config). Then Publish opens GitHub’s page for reviewing the change instead of going live in Orbit.
