Hello Everyone,
This tutorial will help to add the plugins for Git and GitHub in Jenkins.

Jenkins is an open-source automation tool written in Java with plugins built for Continuous Integration purposes. Jenkins is used to build and test your software projects continuously making it easier for developers to integrate changes to the project, and making it easier for users to obtain a fresh build.

To connect GitHub with Jenkins, the following essential plugins must be installed.
  • Git
  • Git client plugin
  • Git server plugin
  • GitHub
  • GitHub API Plugin

Following are the steps to install the plugins on Jenkins. (These steps are common for the installation of all the plugins).

Step 1) Select Manage Jenkins option from the dashboard.


Step 2) In Manage Jenkins, select Manage Plugins.


Step 3) Now click on the Available tab. In the search bar, enter Git. (If the plugins are already installed, click on updates tab to update the plugins to latest version.)



Step 4) Select Git, Git client plugin, Git server plugin, GitHub and GitHub API Plugin. Now click on Install without restart. The required plugins will be installed now. It may take some time to download and install.



Step 5) Once the installation is complete, navigate back to dashboard. Create a New Item. Now in the Source Code Management, Git option would be available.
