# How can I use the Code Change Review (CCR) feature with GitHub?

For Ketryx to fetch Pull Request data from GitHub, authentication needs to happen via a _Personal Access Token_. Access tokens can be generated at the user level and provide authorization for specific scopes.

This Personal Access Token will serve as the authentication method to fetch both Pull Request data and the Git repository for SOUP dependency analysis from GitHub.

To find out how to generate a Personal Access Token, please see our GitHub FAQ entry [here](https://ketryx.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/21747500582669) for the classic token and [here](https://support.ketryx.com/knowledge/editor/01HGBD8FN6JCYM11Z7PKRXGAJ3/en-us?brand_id=21249112595853) for the fine-grained token.
