Body

Github and Github Enterprise Server both support adding issues from different organizations to a given Github Project:

However, I haven't been able to figure out if it's possible to set up a project on Github Enterprise Server that combines issues from organizations inside the Enterprise with others from organizations hosted on GitHub.com. For example, there could be a project tracking work where some developers are working on the company's internal GHES repos and other developers are working on external open-source enhancements or bugfixes that the company needs.

Is this mixed GHES/GitHub.com integration in Projects supported as part of Github Connect?

I might expect to be able to do this with a full github.com URL based on the documentation here:

https://docs.github.com/en/[email protected]/issues/planning-and-tracking-with-projects/managing-items-in-your-project/adding-items-to-your-project#pasting-the-url-of-an-issue-or-pull-request

However, when I do this with a known issue an external GitHub repository that I'd like to add to my GHES project, I just get a draft item with a title that's the URL. For example, if I paste the full URL to this issue from the ros2_control repository in the ros-controls organization I get:

In a private project on github.com, instead, I can start by typing #ros-controls to find the repo and issue I want:

I'd like to be able to do the same from my GHES project.
