Installing microsfot github Policy Service is basically the first step, but you don’t manually “accept” the CLA somewhere in settings.

Usually what happens is:

1. You open a PR to this repo.

2. The CLA bot will automatically check your PR.

3. If you havent signed it yet, it will comment with a link.

4. You click the link and follow the steps to sign it.

After that, the bot updates your PR status automatically.

So if you already installed the policy service, the next step is just to submit a PR and let the bot trigger the CLA check. There is nothing else you need to manually configure.

To sign the CLA (Contributor License Agreement) in Microsoft repositories, you need to follow a few simple steps:

1. After creating a pull request, wait for the @microsoft-github-policy-service bot to add a comment with a link to sign the CLA.
2. Follow the link and log in to your GitHub account.
3. Select the “Individual” type (if you do not represent a company).
4. Fill in the fields: full name, email (linked to GitHub), and username.
5. Check the box “I agree” and click “Sign”.

After that, the bot will automatically update the status of your PR, remove the “Needs-CLA” label, and add “CLA-Signed”.

If the status hasn’t updated automatically, you can write in the comments on the PR:

@microsoft-github-policy-service agree

I agree to the terms of the Microsoft license agreement. My GitHub username is [your_nickname], and the email matches the one listed in my GitHub profile.

Or simply send the command to recheck: @microsoft-github-policy-service recheck
After that, the bot will check the signing status and update the PR.
