+Git provider integrations
+=========================
+
+Your Read the Docs account can be connected to your Git provider's account.
+Connecting your account provides the following features:
+
+🔑️ Easy login
+  Log in to Read the Docs with your |git_providers_or| account.
+
+🔁️ List your projects
+  Select a project to automatically import from all your Git repositories and organizations.
+  See: :doc:`/intro/import-guide`.
+
+⚙️ Automatic configuration
+  Have your Git repository automatically configured with your Read the Docs :term:`webhook`,
+  which allows Read the Docs to build your docs on every change to your repository.
+
+🚥️ Commit status
+  See your documentation build status as a commit status indicator on :doc:`pull request builds </pull-requests>`.
+
+.. note::
+
+   **Are you using GitHub Enterprise?**
+      We offer customized enterprise plans for organizations.
+      Please contact [email protected].
+
+   **Other Git providers**
+      We also generally support all Git providers through :doc:`manual configuration </guides/setup/git-repo-manual>`.
+
+.. figure:: /img/screenshot-webhook.png

+   All calls to the incoming webhook are logged.
+   Each call can trigger builds and version synchronization.
+
+Read the Docs incoming webhook
+------------------------------
+
+Accounts with |git_providers_and| integration automatically have Read the Docs' incoming :term:`webhook` configured on all Git repositories that are imported.
+Other setups can setup the webhook through :doc:`manual configuration </guides/setup/git-repo-manual>`.
+
+When an incoming webhook notification is received,
+we ensure that it matches an existing Read the Docs project.
+Once we have validated the webhook,
+we take an action based on the information inside of the webhook.
+
+Possible webhook actions outcomes are:
+
+* :doc:`Builds </builds>` the latest commit.
+* Synchronizes your versions based on the latest tag and branch data in Git.
+* Runs your :doc:`automation rules</automation-rules>`.
+* Auto-cancels any currently running builds of the same version.
+
+Other features enabled by Git integration
+-----------------------------------------
+
+We have additional documentation around features provided by our Git integrations:
+
+.. seealso::
+
+   :doc:`/pull-requests`
+      Your Read the Docs project will automatically be configured to send back build notifications,
+      which can be viewed as commit statuses and on pull requests.
+
+   :ref:`sso_git_provider`
+      Git integration makes it possible for us to synchronize your Git repository's access rights from your Git provider.
+      That way, the same access rights are effective on Read the Docs and you don't have to configure access in two places.
