I had a Render service connected to a GitHub repository under my personal account.
Recently, I transferred the repository to my client’s GitHub account (different owner/organization).
After the transfer, Render lost access to the repo, and now I can’t update the linked repository path in the service settings.
What I tried:
-
Removed Render’s GitHub authorization from my account.
-
Attempted to reconnect GitHub in Render, but it still doesn’t let me select the repo under the new owner.
What I need:
-
Reconnect my existing Render service to the transferred repository (now under my client’s account/org).
-
Keep my service settings (environment variables, database, custom domains).
-
Avoid recreating the service if possible.
How can I properly re‑authorize or switch the GitHub connection in Render so it points to the new repository owner?
