Quick start

Integrating listen.dev into your workflows is a straightforward process that provide real-time monitoring and security policy enforcement in just a few steps.

1) Sign up on listen.dev

Go the the dashboard to create an org and project. Copy or save the generated API key to be used in GitHub actions.

2) Integrate listen.dev in GitHub Actions: add the listen.dev action to your .github/workflows to set up monitoring for your CI workflows.

We recommend creating a secret in GitHub for the repo you want to configure. See the guide on using secrets in GitHub.

Once the secret is added, you can proceed to use it in your workflow as shown below.

Example workflow snippet:

jobs:
  my_job:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      uses: listendev/action@v0.4
      with:
        api_key: ${{ secrets.LISTEN_DEV_API_KEY }}

3. Review Security Insights: After each build, access detailed security insights directly on the listen.dev dashboard and the GitHub action workflow.
