I am an admin of [WildGums · GitHub](https://github.com/wildgums) and I am trying to add this organization. However, it keeps asking me for a login. While checking the requests, I see this: {“errors”:[{“msg”:“User is not admin of the ALM organization”}]} However, I just double checked and am part of the “owners” group in GitHub. Note that this is the first organization where there are multiple owners (the other ones I added so far only have a single owner (me)). Anything specific I need to do? ---

Hi @GeertvanHorrik, Welcome to our community forum ! Could you detail the steps you took to add the organization ? Thanks ---

1. Login using a GitHub account 2. Plus button =\> Create new organization 3. Choose organization on GitHub 4. Select WildGums (app already installed, so I hit Configure) 5. Select all repositories (or specific ones, doesn’t really matter) =\> save 6. I am redirected back to SonarCloud, but then it requires me to login again I have inspected the requests via Edge (chromium), and get this error message: [https://sonarcloud.io/api/alm\_integration/show\_alm\_organization?installationId=7531191](https://sonarcloud.io/api/alm_integration/show_alm_organization?installationId=7531191) The response is: {“errors”:[{“msg”:“User is not admin of the ALM organization”}]} I am 1 of the 2 owners in the GitHub organization. Note that, due to alphabetically ordering, I am the 2nd in the list. Maybe that makes the difference? ---

Hi, Can you try to uninstall the GitHub app and then retry exactly what you did from step 2 please? Thanks, Benoît ---

1. Uninstalled the app 2. Gave access to all repositories =\> install Same issue, different installation id: [https://sonarcloud.io/api/alm\_integration/show\_alm\_organization?installationId=7579525](https://sonarcloud.io/api/alm_integration/show_alm_organization?installationId=7579525) {“errors”:[{“msg”:“User is not admin of the ALM organization”}]} ---

Thanks for trying. > [@GeertvanHorrik](#): > > I am 1 of the 2 owners in the GitHub organization. Note that, due to alphabetically ordering, I am the 2nd in the list. Maybe that makes the difference? That shouldn’t make any difference. We’ll investigate further and come back to you! ---

Any updates on this? Our trial for the self-hosted version (which we used to evaluate the branches feature) has expired and we want to move to the cloud, but this is blocking us. Thanks! ---

I’ve tried removing the other owner (so I am the only owner left), but it’s still not working. Not sure if there are other things that could prevent this? I think I have everything allowed in GH.
