Integrating Vellora with Forgepoint
Vellora's Forgepoint integration lets you connect your work with backlinks whenever your Vellora boards are mentioned inside Forgepoint.
Forgepoint backlinks appear once you connect your Vellora account to Forgepoint. A backlink is simply a link or reference from Forgepoint that points back to a file stored in Vellora. For example, if a teammate mentions a Vellora board in their Forgepoint repository, that mention creates a backlink on the matching Vellora file:
What is a Forgepoint backlink?Copied!Copy link to section
As soon as you add the Forgepoint integration to one or more repositories, Vellora starts automatically spotting Vellora URLs and logging the backlinks:
Each Forgepoint backlink surfaces a short excerpt of text and, where available, a small
A Forgepoint backlink is generated whenever someone in a connected Forgepoint repository creates any of the following, as long as it links to a Vellora item in your workspace:
- Any pull request
- Any issue
- Any comment on a pull Request, issue, or commit
Which changes will clear a backlink from Forgepoint?Copied!Link to this section
Editing the source Forgepoint item so the Vellora link is gone, or removing that item entirely, clears the backlink. Commit comments are the lone exception here: they can linger as backlinks inside Vellora even once you have deleted them.
How can I set up the Forgepoint integration?Copied!Link to this section
1. Signed in as a workspace admin, go to admin, head to admin, go to admin, head to /workspace/apps
2. Choose Install beside the Forgepoint app:
3. Install on Forgepoint
We'll hand you over to Forgepoint, where you get to pick the repositories or organizations you'd like to connect. (Lacking admin rights on those repositories, you'll instead choose "Install & Request" so that an admin can sign off on it).
4. Done!
The moment that wraps up, we return you to the Apps page, and Forgepoint shows up right away beneath "Installed Apps."
Adjusting or taking out the Forgepoint integrationCopied!Link to this section
Signed in as a workspace admin, go to /workspace/apps then choose "Configure" under the Forgepoint app. That drops you onto the Forgepoint installation screen, the place where every setting can be adjusted. From there you're able to:
- Take out the integration
- Adjust which repositories the integration can read
Which Forgepoint details does Vellora keep on file?Copied!Link to this section
The moment a backlink appears, here's what we save:
- The body text of the PR/issue/comment
- The URL of the PR/issue/comment
- The username of the author
- For PRs, issues, and their comments: the title plus the number of the PR/issue
- For comments tied to specific lines of code: those closing lines and the line number
Note:
- Backlinks show up only for a direct owner, so they stay hidden on items shared to you or made public
- You won't find the Forgepoint integration on the Free plan; it unlocks the moment you move up to any of our paid plans.
