Auto-link DevRev GitHub accounts

The Auto-link DevRev GitHub accounts snap-in links GitHub accounts to corresponding DevRev accounts at scale. The snap-in supports automatic creation of shadow users for inactive DevRev accounts and handles the conversion to active users upon their first login.

Features

• The system reads a CSV file containing user data.
• For each user, it checks if a DevRev account exists using the provided email (saml_name_id).
• If the user exists and is active, the GitHub account is linked directly.
• If the user does not exist or is inactive, a shadow user is created and the GitHub account is linked.
• Shadow users automatically convert to active users upon their first login.
• If the user does not exist or is inactive, a shadow user is created and the GitHub account is linked.
• Shadow users automatically convert to active users upon their first login.
