First, create the streams you’d like to use for Codebase notifications. There
will be two types of messages: commit-related updates and issue-related updates.
After creating these streams (we suggest naming them `codebase commits` and
`codebase issues`), make sure to subscribe all interested parties.

You will need your Codebase API Username. You can find it in the settings page
of your account, under **API Credentials**.

{!change-zulip-config-file.md!}

Also, edit the following Codebase credentials in `zulip_codebase_config.py`:

```
CODEBASE_API_USERNAME = "zulip-inc/leo-franchi-15"
CODEBASE_API_KEY = 0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef
```

Before your first run of the script, you may optionally choose to configure it
to mirror some number of hours of prior Codebase activity:

```
CODEBASE_INITIAL_HISTORY_HOURS = 10
```

Now, simply run the `api/integrations/codebase/zulip_codebase_mirror` script.
If needed, this script may be restarted, and it will automatically resume from
when it was last running.

Whenever you create a new project, commit, issue, deployment, or more, you’ll
get notifications in your selected streams with the associated information.
