Here's how you can reauthenticate your GitHub account on CodePen: 1. *Sign Out and Sign In Again*: - Log out of your CodePen account (if you're already logged in). - Clear your browser's cache and cookies to ensure a clean session. - Log back in to your CodePen account. 2. *Reconnect GitHub Account*: - Once you're logged in to CodePen, go to your account settings or profile. - Look for the GitHub integration settings or connected accounts section. - Disconnect your GitHub account if it's already connected. - Reconnect your GitHub account by following the steps provided by CodePen. 3. *Generate a New Personal Access Token*: - If the reconnection doesn't solve the issue, you might need to generate a new Personal Access Token on GitHub. - Go to your GitHub account settings. - Under "Developer settings," select "Personal access tokens." - Generate a new token with the necessary scopes for Gist (e.g., "gist" scope). - Copy the newly generated token. 4. *Update Token on CodePen*: - Go back to your CodePen account settings or profile. - Find the GitHub integration settings or connected accounts section. - Update the Personal Access Token with the newly generated token from GitHub. 5. *Export to Gist*: - Once your GitHub account is reconnected and the token is updated, try exporting your work from CodePen to GitHub as a Gist again. If you're still facing issues after following these steps, you might want to contact CodePen's support or community forums for further assistance. They can provide more specific guidance based on their platform's current setup and any recent changes. — Reply to this email directly, view it on GitHub <#63888 (comment)>, or unsubscribe <https://github.com/notifications/unsubscribe-auth/APVP7N2L2FH2UFTFSXRVDMLXVS37DANCNFSM6AAAAAA3R7DWEA> .

Go to your Pen in CodePen.

At the bottom of the editor, click Export → Export as Gist.

You’ll be prompted to connect your GitHub account (via OAuth).

Once connected, CodePen will create a Gist in your GitHub profile containing your Pen’s code.

Limitation: Gists are not full repositories; they’re snippets. You can’t push updates automatically from CodePen to a repo.
