# Gitea and Forgejo
Renovate supports [Gitea](https://gitea.io) and the [Forgejo](https://forgejo.org) fork.
Forgejo exists since `v1.18.0` and is currently fully compatible to Gitea.
## Authentication
First, [create a Personal Access Token (PAT)](https://docs.gitea.io/en-us/api-usage/#authentication) for the bot account.
The bot account should have full name and email address configured.
Then let Renovate use your PAT by doing _one_ of the following:
- Set your PAT as a `token` in your `config.js` file
- Set your PAT as an environment variable `RENOVATE_TOKEN`
- Set your PAT when you run Renovate in the CLI with `--token=`
You must set `platform=gitea` in your Renovate config file.
The PAT should have these permissions:
| Scope | Permission | Valid for Gitea versions | Notes |
| -------------- | ---------------- | ------------------------------ | ----------------------------- |
| `repo` | `Read and Write` | all | |
| `user` | `Read` | all | |
| `issue` | `Read and Write` | `>= 1.20.0` | |
| `organization` | `Read` | `>= 1.20.0` | Required to read group labels |
| `email` | `Read` | `<= 1.19.3` | |
| `misc` | `Read` | Only for `1.20.0` and `1.20.1` | |
If you use Gitea packages, add the `read:packages` scope.
## Unsupported platform features/concepts
- **Adding reviewers to PRs not supported**: Gitea versions older than `v1.14.0` do not have the required API.
- **`platformAutomerge` (`true` by default) for platform-native automerge not supported**: Gitea versions older than v1.17.0 do not have the required API.
- **Git upload filters**: If you're using a Gitea version older than `v1.16.0` then you must enable [clone filters](https://docs.gitea.io/en-us/clone-filters/).
## Features awaiting implementation
- none
## Repo autodiscover sorting
You can change the default server-side sort method and order for autodiscover API.
Set those via [`RENOVATE_X_AUTODISCOVER_REPO_SORT`](../../../self-hosted-experimental.md#renovate_x_autodiscover_repo_sort) and [`RENOVATE_X_AUTODISCOVER_REPO_ORDER`](../../../self-hosted-experimental.md#renovate_x_autodiscover_repo_order).
Read the [Gitea swagger docs](https://try.gitea.io/api/swagger#/repository/repoSearch) for more details.
