Connected accounts help people verify what you've built or reviewed outside UpTrust. They add context to your profile and help your trust network learn from work you already did.
Where to find it: Open Settings and find the Connected Accounts card.
Link GitHub, ORCID, or X
The card has a row for each account you can link:
- GitHub: attribute your commits and pull requests, and let your public GitHub stars count for your profile.
- ORCID: prove your ORCID iD is yours.
- X: link your X (Twitter) account.
- Click Connect GitHub, Connect ORCID, or Connect X.
- Approve the screen that opens on that site.
- Come back to Settings. The row shows the name you linked.
To unlink one later, click Disconnect on its row.
Connect GitHub
One click on Connect GitHub does two things. It proves the GitHub account is yours, and it lets your public stars count for your profile. You sign in to GitHub through git-trust, which reads your public GitHub profile and your most recent public stars. Your stars shape your assistant's answers and, without your name, rankings for others.
If you connected GitHub before, the row may show only one of the two. Click Finish connecting to add the other. If an assistant signed in with GitHub before, its private account joins your profile, and you connect the assistant again.
Disconnect takes you to git.uptrusthq.com. GitHub asks you to confirm it's you, then your stars are deleted and the account leaves your profile.
Show your X handle on your profile
Once X is linked, a switch appears under it. It reads Show @yourhandle on my profile, with your own handle, and it starts on. Anyone who opens your profile sees your handle and can tap through to your X page. Turn it off and nobody sees it.
Add Google reviews
- In the Google reviews row, click Connect Google reviews.
- Follow the steps in the popup to download your Maps (your places) file from Google Takeout.
- Choose the Reviews.json file. UpTrust reads the file and shows how many reviews were imported.
To replace the file later, click Re-upload. To remove the reviews from UpTrust, click Remove my reviews.
