Rather than adding engineers one by one, an admin can import your entire team — every member of your connected GitHub org, GitLab group, or Bitbucket workspace — to seed the roster.

​
How to import

  1. Go to Admin → Engineer Roster.
  2. Click Import your team.
  3. DevPerform reads your members and creates an engineer for each, with their handle (and name + avatar) attached. Emails are filled in automatically from commit metadata — the reliable source across every host and on private repos, since the member APIs rarely expose email.
Imported engineers start ungrouped — they appear under an Unassigned view until you assign them to teams. DevPerform deliberately does not invent a placeholder “Engineering” team for you; the Unassigned view is just a prompt to organize people into the real teams you want. The import is idempotent and case-insensitive on handles, so running it again won’t create duplicates — it only adds members who aren’t already on the roster. Run it again after your team grows to pull in new hires.

​
Requirements

  • You must be an admin.
  • At least one repo must be configured, so DevPerform knows which org / group / workspace to read.
  • DevPerform needs member-read access: the GitHub App (or OAuth) for GitHub, and the stored OAuth token for GitLab/Bitbucket. If the import returns a permissions error, re-authorize the connection or contact us.

After importing

Imported engineers behave exactly like manually-added ones: assign them to teams, add additional handles if they use multiple accounts, and they’ll start showing up in metrics as their PR/MR activity syncs.
