If you need to use multiple accounts on GitHub, you can sign in to your accounts and switch between them without always being required to reauthenticate. You can use the account switcher if you have a personal account and service accounts (sometimes called machine users) or if you need to switch between your personal account and managed user accounts in an enterprise that uses Enterprise Managed Users.

When you are signed in to multiple accounts and using the account switcher, those sessions remain on your computer or browser. If you access GitHub on another computer or browser, the same accounts will not be available until you add them.

If you are signed in to multiple accounts and follow a link to GitHub from an external source, such as a request to install or approve a GitHub App, you will first be prompted to choose which account you want to use.

Your SSO sessions will persist when you switch away from an account and return. This means you will not always need to authenticate with your identity provider (IdP) each time you want to use your SSO-linked account. If you're a member of an enterprise that uses Enterprise Managed Users and add your managed user account to the account switcher, the managed user account will appear grayed out if your session has expired. Selecting the expired account will send you to reauthenticate with your IdP.

Adding an account to the account switcher

When you add a new account to the account switcher, both the account you are currently signed in to and the account you have added will become available in the account switcher. You will be signed in to the new account immediately.
