Manual GitHub App Creation
Enable webhooks
Webhooks need to be enabled for the GitHub App to work. This is the method the app uses to connect and communicate with Codecov.
To create a GitHub App Integration for Codecov, first navigate to your organization in the GitHub UI.

You can use the drop down in the left sidebar of the Settings page in GitHub to access your organization.
Then from the Sidebar Click Developer Settings > GitHub Apps:
Choose "New GitHub App" and fill out the information as follows:
Create the App for your Organization
When creating the GitHub app, ensure that you're creating it for your organization, not your personal account. The URL on the app creation page should read: https://github.com/settings/apps/new

It's important to set the proper callback URL. They should point to your Codecov Dedicated Cloud install as follows:
<your-codecov-url>/login/github_enterprise
for GitHub Enterprise (on premises)<your-codecov-url>/login/github
for GitHub (and GitHub Enterprise cloud)
For the webhook URL:
<your-codecov-url>/webhooks/github_enterprise
for GitHub Enterprise (on premises)<your-codecov-url>/webhooks/github
for GitHub (and GitHub Enterprise cloud)
Add a webhook secret (not optional) and include in the information packet to securely send to Codecov.
