Body

I'm a collaborator on a private repository outside my organization. How do I grant access to it within my Codespace? I've modified my devcontainer.json but it's not working.

  "customizations": {
    "codespaces": {
      "repositories": {
        "outside_org/private_repo": {
          "permissions": {
            "issues": "write"
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

Even though it won't show up in YOUR repositories, it should appear on your github dashboard (click the github logo), on the bottom right. There should be a list that has buttons at the top to filter all, public, and private repos. Try clicking the private button and it should be there.
