List repository contributors

Works with GitHub Apps

Lists contributors to the specified repository and sorts them by the number of commits per contributor in descending order. This endpoint may return information that is a few hours old because the GitHub REST API caches contributor data to improve performance.

Create a repository dispatch event

Works with GitHub Apps

You can use this endpoint to trigger a webhook event called repository_dispatch when you want activity that happens outside of GitHub Enterprise Server to trigger a GitHub Actions workflow or GitHub App webhook. You must configure your GitHub Actions workflow or GitHub App to run when the repository_dispatch event occurs. For an example repository_dispatch webhook payload, see "RepositoryDispatchEvent."

The client_payload parameter is available for any extra information that your workflow might need. This parameter is a JSON payload that will be passed on when the webhook event is dispatched. For example, the client_payload can include a message that a user would like to send using a GitHub Actions workflow. Or the client_payload can be used as a test to debug your workflow.

This endpoint requires write access to the repository by providing either:

This input example shows how you can use the client_payload as a test to debug your workflow.

List repository teams

Works with GitHub Apps

Lists the teams that have access to the specified repository and that are also visible to the authenticated user.

For a public repository, a team is listed only if that team added the public repository explicitly.

Personal access tokens require the following scopes:

  • public_repo to call this endpoint on a public repository
  • repo to call this endpoint on a private repository (this scope also includes public repositories)

This endpoint is not compatible with fine-grained personal access tokens.

Transfer a repository

Works with GitHub Apps

A transfer request will need to be accepted by the new owner when transferring a personal repository to another user. The response will contain the original owner, and the transfer will continue asynchronously. For more details on the requirements to transfer personal and organization-owned repositories, see about repository transfers. You must use a personal access token or an OAuth token for this endpoint. An installation access token cannot be used because it is only granted access to a single account.

owner string Required

The account owner of the repository. The name is not case sensitive.
