This integration allows you to deploy your Catalyst projects in GitHub directly from the Catalyst console. When you integrate your GitHub account with your Catalyst account, you can view your Git repositories and their URLs in the Catalyst console. The files in your Git repository must be in the standard project directory structure. When you deploy the functions and the client packages present in the Git repository in Catalyst, they will be reflected in the _Functions_ and the _Hosting_ sections of the console. You can also synchronize the changes made in the GitHub repositories with your Catalyst console. > **Note:** 1. This component is available to Catalyst users who were active before **July 2024** or have already integrated their GitHub repositories with Catalyst. 2. If you are a new user, we strongly recommend you explore our new service, [Catalyst Pipelines](https://docs.catalyst.zoho.com/en/pipelines/getting-started/introduction/), an advanced version of the Git component. Catalyst Pipelines enables you to define the entire end-to-end build-to-deployment workflow using commands in a YAML file. To learn more, refer to the [help documentation](https://docs.catalyst.zoho.com/en/pipelines/help/pipelines/introduction/).
