How to use it?

All installation instructions are available on the GitHub marketplace.

How different is the GitHub Action from the GitHub App?

The Code Inspector GitHub App is a full integration of Code Inspector capabilities with GitHub whereas the GitHub Action only supports code quality checks.

When installing the GitHub App, Code Inspector is notified of each push or pull and updates the project data accordingly. The GitHub App also supports automated code reviews and annotate the code modification with any defect that has been introduced.

To use the GitHub App, you need to use Code Inspector with your GitHub account (log using a GitHub account) When using the GitHub action, you can use any account on Code Inspector.
