> How would I go about changing my personal connected GitHub account to another GitHub Organization account?

Do you want to replace the connected GitHub account of your [Bitrise.io](http://Bitrise.io) account with a new GitHub account, or do you want to change the “API communication” user (the one [bitrise.io](http://bitrise.io) uses when it communicates with external services) to another one?

## How to change your [Bitrise.io](http://Bitrise.io) account’s connected GitHub/Bitbucket/GitLab/… account

1. Go to your [Account Settings](https://www.bitrise.io/me/profile)
2. On the left side **turn off** the connection (click on the toggle)

3. Now **make sure that you’re signed in in that browser with the right GitHub/Bitbucket/… account - the one you’re signed in with will be connected!** (You can of course use a **new** incognito browser window too, just to be sure).
4. Turn the toggle back on. This will connect the GitHub/Bitbucket/… account you’re signed in with in the same browser to your [bitrise.io](https://www.bitrise.io) account (the one you’re signed in with)!

### How to specify another user as the “Service credential User” of a specific app

1. Open the app on [bitrise.io](https://www.bitrise.io)
2. Go to the **Team** tab
3. Go to the **Service credential User** section
4. In the dropdown select the team member whos connected GitHub account you want to use for communication between [bitrise.io](https://www.bitrise.io) and GitHub/Bitbucket/…

If you have any questions, just let us know!  
Happy Building! 🙂
