UPDATE: As mentioned in the official documentation: Connecting to public GitHub or GitHub Enterprise Cloud for the first time in Azure Data Factory.

Note: Make sure to clear cookie and cache to the browser or make sure to use another browser to connect to github for first time.

If you're connecting to public GitHub or GitHub Enterprise Cloud from Azure Data Factory for the first time, follow these steps to connect to a GitHub organization.

1. In the Git configuration pane, enter the organization name in the GitHub Account field. A prompt to log into GitHub appears.
2. Sign in using your user credentials.
3. You are asked to authorize Azure Data Factory as an application called AzureDataFactory. On this screen, you see an option to grant permission for ADF to access the organization. If you don't see the option to grant permission, ask an admin to manually grant the permission through GitHub.

Once you follow these steps, your factory can connect to both public and private repositories within your organization. If you're unable to connect, try clearing the browser cache and retrying.

Already connected to public GitHub or GitHub Enterprise Cloud using a personal account

It seems like you are having trouble setting up Azure Data Factory authentication with your personal GitHub account. You will experience this error when you are unable to authorize the Github account.

In general, when you connect to a GitHub organization for the first time in Azure Data Factory, you need to enter the organization name in the GitHub Account field in the Git configuration pane. Then, you will be prompted to log in to GitHub using your user credentials. After logging in, you will be asked to authorize Azure Data Factory as an application called AzureDataFactory. On this screen, you will see an option to grant permission for ADF to access the organization. If you don't see the option to grant permission, ask an admin to manually grant the permission through GitHub.
