📝 1. Confirm the app installation is under the new organization 👉 GitHub > Your Organization > Settings > Installed GitHub Apps Check if "Lovable" is listed under the new organization’s installed apps. If it's listed under the old org name (or not showing at all), it’s still linked to the old org. If needed, uninstall it completely from the new org, then reinstall fresh. 🔍 Sometimes reinstalling from Lovable's UI doesn't properly trigger a fresh org-level install — do it directly from GitHub’s settings. 📝 2. Check repository-specific app access 👉 GitHub > Your Organization > Settings > Installed GitHub Apps > Lovable > Configure Confirm that the renamed repository shows up and is checked in the list of repositories with access. If you selected “All repositories” access, make sure that option is actually active (sometimes toggling it off and back on forces GitHub to update permissions). 📝 3. Reauthorize OAuth tokens or refresh app authorization inside Lovable Look for an option inside Lovable’s account settings to: ✅ Disconnect GitHub 📝 4. Manually reselect repositories in Lovable’s integration settings Go into Lovable > GitHub Integration settings See if it lets you manually select repositories again If the renamed repository doesn’t appear, trigger a “resync repositories” or equivalent option. 📝 5. GitHub API permissions propagation delay? Try checking: bash If it doesn’t, the issue may be deeper in GitHub’s backend. 📝 6. Contact Lovable support with GitHub org + repo IDs ✅ You can find the organization and repository IDs in GitHub’s GraphQL API or REST API: bash ✨ In summary: Most effective fixes: ✅ Fully uninstall → reinstall the GitHub App from the new organization’s GitHub Settings Let me know if uninstalling from GitHub and reinstalling fresh helped, or if you see the app listed under the new org but it’s still not connecting! |

This what I got from Lovable support AI and it worked for me:

Body
Hi everyone,
I probably f***** up. I recently renamed my GitHub organization ...
The repository was renamed along with it and now lives under the new name. Everything seems to have migrated correctly — however, a third-party app Lovable.so can no longer access the repository.
The app displays the following error when I try to open or connect the project:
“We can’t access your repository – we couldn’t find the Lovable GitHub app installation for your account. To resolve this issue, please connect the GitHub app again.”
What I’ve tried so far:
• Re-installed the Lovable GitHub App
• Granted the app access to the new organization and the repository (also tried “All repositories” access)
• Synced GitHub from within Lovable
• Logged out and back into both GitHub and Lovable
Despite all this, Lovable still shows the same error and cannot find or access the repository.
Is there something I need to reset or clear after an organization rename to make sure third-party apps recognize the new repo path? Or could this be a permission propagation issue?
Any help or experience with a similar issue would be greatly appreciated 🙏
Thanks in advance!
