# EasyCLA Requirements

EasyCLA has the following requirements:

* Your project repositories are in GitHub or Gerrit
* If your project uses Gerrit source control, the Gerrit instance should be hosted on The Linux Foundation platform.
* You have an LF Single Sign-On (SSO) account. If you do not have an SSO account, [create an account](/lfx/sso/create-an-account.md).
* For Corporate CLAs, your company has a corporate authority role

As a repository administrator, enable Branch Restrictions and Branch Protection for your organizations in GitHub. Set the restrictions and protection to enable required status checks on a branch regardless of the role for the organization.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.linuxfoundation.org/lfx/easycla/v1-deprecated/getting-started/easycla-requirements.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
