GitHub offers a system for managing third-party applications that integrate with its platform, ensuring that organization administrators can control which apps access their data by maintaining a whitelist of trusted applications. This setup requires explicit approval for any application seeking access, thereby allowing administrators to authorize only trusted services, such as continuous integration tools, while blocking others. Organization members can request app approvals from admins, who will then evaluate the application's suitability for accessing organizational resources. Additional guidance for setting up approved application lists and recommendations for developers integrating their apps with GitHub are available in the documentation and the Developer Blog.
