In my case I had previously used my personal GitHub repository to create an application on AWS amplify. I needed to create a new app from the repo of the organization I was part of. The problem was that I could not find the organization repo when I click on 'select a repository' box under 'Add repository and branch'. The solution that worked for me was to click on 'update my GitHub permissions'. Then I selected my organization.

Hello.

I think you can change it by running the following command.  
https://awscli.amazonaws.com/v2/documentation/api/latest/reference/amplify/update-app.html  
```
aws amplify list-apps
aws amplify update-app --app-id {app-id}  --repository {github-repository-url} --access-token {github-access-token}
```
