Install Socket for Origin

Before you start

You need:

• Access to a Cursor Origin workspace, with permission to install apps.
• The Owner or Admin role in the Socket organization you connect. See User Roles and Permissions. Socket roles are separate from Origin roles.

Install and connect

1. In Origin, open the App Marketplace, select Socket, and install it on the repositories you want to scan.
2. When Origin sends you to Socket, sign in and choose the Socket organization to connect. If your organization uses SSO, sign in with SSO.
3. Approve the requested access. See Socket for Origin permissions for what each permission is used for.
4. On the Confirm your connection page, select Connect workspace.

After you connect:

• Socket scans new pull request activity.
• Socket scans the default branch on the next push to it.
• You choose which repositories Socket can access in your Origin app settings.

Each Origin workspace connects to one Socket organization, and several Origin workspaces can connect to the same Socket organization.

Reconnect or disconnect

To reconnect, for example when a different Owner or Admin takes over the connection, uninstall Socket from your Origin workspace's app settings and install it again from the App Marketplace. Repeat the connect steps above.

To stop scanning, uninstall Socket from your Origin workspace's app settings. Socket stops processing events for that workspace and deletes its stored credentials. Scans already in your Socket dashboard stay there.
