Questions
OAuth or a personal access token?
OAuth is one click and the token it stores does not expire. Reach for a personal access token when you script the setup, when you want a token scoped to fewer repositories, or when your instance has no OAuth client configured.
Classic or fine-grained token?
Either works. Fine-grained tokens are scoped per repository and expire.
There is no Connect button on my instance
Self-hosted instances need an OAuth client configured once by an admin before the tile appears. Until then, use the token.
