What is it?

About Devin

Devin is one of the Dev / SCM / CI / IaC platforms BeforeQuery connects to. Once linked, the platform's data becomes a first-class source for grounded AI answers and a target for policy-gated agent actions — the same identity, approval, and audit-log guarantees every other integration ships with.

Setup

How to connect Devin

  1. Step 01

    In the BeforeQuery dashboard, go to Integrations → Dev / SCM / CI / IaC and select Devin.

  2. Step 02

    Sign in to Devin with an account that has permissions to grant BeforeQuery the Dev / SCM / CI / IaC scopes required.

  3. Step 03

    Confirm the connection. Devin is now available as a source and action target for every playbook in your workspace.

Use cases

What teams actually do with the Devin integration

Engineering knowledge Q&A

Engineers ask "how does auth work in our stack?" → BeforeQuery answers from the exact Devin README + code comments that document it. Onboarding speed doubles; senior engineers stop repeating themselves.

PR-summary drafts

New PR opened in Devin → BeforeQuery drafts a summary grounded in the diff, related issues, and prior similar PRs. Reviewer opens the PR with context already framed.

Issue triage

Every new Devin issue gets categorized (bug, feature, question), routed to the right team, and — if it looks like a known-bug pattern — linked to the prior fix. Triage cycle drops from hours to seconds.

Answer questions grounded in Devin

Employees and customers ask Devin-related questions in Slack, Teams, or the widget — BeforeQuery answers with the exact Devin record shown alongside the response. No context switching, no "log into Dev / SCM / CI / IaC to check" round-trips.

Devin — Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about connecting BeforeQuery to Devin.

No. Your code is indexed for your workspace's own retrieval — never used to train shared models. Bring-your-own-model deployments (self-hosted) available on Enterprise if you want inference to stay in your infrastructure.
Yes on approval. Merges are always human-approved; auto-merge is available only for specific playbooks (e.g., "auto-merge Dependabot PRs that pass CI + have no code owner"), gated by your matrix.
Standard OAuth 2.0 where Devin supports it, otherwise API-key or bearer-token auth. Credentials are stored encrypted at rest (AES-256-GCM) per workspace, never shared across customers, and rotated on request. The connection is scoped to the least-privilege set of scopes each playbook needs — you approve the scope list on install.
No. Your Devin data feeds only your workspace's own agents and answers. Nothing is used to train a shared model, and nothing crosses workspace boundaries. Bring-your-own-model is available on Enterprise if you want to pin inference to your own OpenAI / Anthropic / self-hosted deployment.
Yes. Every Devin integration is scoped at install time — you pick which resources, users, or record types are visible. You can further restrict per-playbook: a single playbook only touches the specific Devin objects it needs. Scope changes take effect on the next sync.
Every write is logged with the acting user, the playbook that fired it, the exact operation, the target entity IDs, and the timestamp — all in the immutable audit log. Writes are rehearsable in simulation mode against a copy of live data before they touch Devin for real.
