Hello,  
I created a credential in awx with the github token.  
Type: GitHub Personal Access Token

When I put this credential in my project it does not appear.

Source Control Credential Type: git

Default Execution Environment: Control Plane Execution Environment

We use AWX running on Kubernetes.

How can I link a credential with a project type?

Hello,

A project can only use a “Source Control” type credential. A credential of type “GitHub Personal Access Token” or “GitHub Token” will not be selectable on the project edit screen.
