+# Architecture
+
+Keptn-Gitea-Provisioner-Service is a microservice with a simple job: When a Keptn project without an upstream is created, it creates a git repo and a token on a (remote) Gitea installation, and return the Git Remote URL, username and token, e.g.:
+
+**Request**
+```
+POST /repository
+{
+    "project": "foobar",
+    "namespace": "keptn"
+}
+```
+
+**Response**
+```
+{
+    "gitRemoteUrl": "http://gitea-server:3000/xyz/foobar.git",
+    "gitUser": "xyz",
+    "gitToken": "<secret-token>"
+}
+```
+
+See [Keptn API: Repository - addInstance](https://keptn.sh/api/#/repository/addInstance) for more information.
+
+In addition, Keptn-Gitea-Provisioner-Service is also responsible for deleting the upstream repository in Gitea when a Keptn project with an automatic provisioned upstream is deleted.
