Question: How does CodeApprove handle external contributors? #99

Open mtlynch opened 1 year ago

mtlynch commented 1 year ago

We've been using CodeApprove extensively within my team, but I'm realizing I don't know what happens if we try to use it for a review with an external contributor on a public repo who's just doing a one-off PR.

How do we use CodeApprove in such a situation?

@mtlynch good question! I don’t believe any paying CodeApprove customers have done this yet. My intention is not to charge you for users who don’t participate in any private repos, although I’ll want to double check that is the reality.

In the meantime please go ahead and in the worst case I’ll issue a refund/credit.

@samatcodeapprove - "go ahead" as in add them to our account? Or try to participate in a review with them? Do they get any interesting privileges if I add them to our account?

If the repo is public and they sign up for CodeApprove you can just add them as a reviewer. There are no privileges involved. The only reason they’ll need an invite is to get into the alpha in general, they won’t be associated with your organization.
