**Name** and **Git URL** are required.

### Git URL and repository path

The **Git URL** must be an URL to a git repository that can be used for `git clone` command.

```{warning}
The **Git URL** must be publicly accessible in order for Fleio to be able to clone the repository.
```

You can also specify a repository path if the application templates are not stored at the top level using the
**Repository path** field.

## Application repository status and refreshing a repository

An application repository may have one of the following statuses:

- **New** - repository was just added
- **Error** - there was an error when refreshing the repository
- **Updating** - repository is currently updating
- **Ready** - repository is ready to be used

When a repository is first added, its status is set to **New**. In order to use the repository you must click on the
**Refresh** button on the repository card to refresh it.

Refreshing a repository updates the list of application templates stored in the Fleio database for that repository.
