Use the REST API to create and manage membership of enterprise teams in your GitHub enterprise.

About enterprise team members

Note

These endpoints are currently in public preview and subject to change.

This API documentation is for enterprises on GitHub Enterprise Cloud.

If your enterprise is Copilot Business for non-GHE, please refer to the early access documentation link that was previously shared to you.

These endpoints are only available to authenticated members of the enterprise team's enterprise with classic personal access tokens with the read:enterprise scope for GET APIs and admin:enterprise for other APIs.

These endpoints are not compatible with fine-grained personal access tokens or GitHub App access tokens.

GitHub generates the enterprise team's slug from the team name and adds the ent: prefix.
