When your GitHub App acts on behalf of a user, it performs user-to-server requests. These requests must be authorized with a user's access token. User-to-server requests include requesting data for a user, like determining which repositories to display to a particular user. These requests also include actions triggered by a user, like running a build.
Identifying users on your site
To authorize users for standard apps that run in the browser, use the web application flow.
Web アプリケーションフロー
Using the web application flow, the process to identify users on your site is:
- Users are redirected to request their GitHub identity
- Users are redirected back to your site by GitHub
- Your GitHub App accesses the API with the user's access token
If you select Request user authorization (OAuth) during installation when creating or modifying your app, step 1 will be completed during app installation. For more information, see "Authorizing users during installation."
1. Request a user's GitHub identity
GET http(s)://[hostname]/login/oauth/authorize
When your GitHub App specifies a login
parameter, it prompts users with a specific account they can use for signing in and authorizing your app.
パラメータ
名前 | 種類 | 説明 |
---|---|---|
client_id | string | Required. The client ID for your GitHub App. You can find this in your GitHub App settings when you select your app. |
redirect_uri | string | The URL in your application where users will be sent after authorization. This must be an exact match to the URL you provided in the User authorization callback URL field when setting up your GitHub App and can't contain any additional parameters. |
状態 | string | This should contain a random string to protect against forgery attacks and could contain any other arbitrary data. |
login | string | Suggests a specific account to use for signing in and authorizing the app. |
Note: You don't need to provide scopes in your authorization request. Unlike traditional OAuth, the authorization token is limited to the permissions associated with your GitHub App and those of the user.
2. Users are redirected back to your site by GitHub
If the user accepts your request, GitHub redirects back to your site with a temporary code
in a code parameter as well as the state you provided in the previous step in a state
parameter. If the states don't match, the request was created by a third party and the process should be aborted.
Note: If you select Request user authorization (OAuth) during installation when creating or modifying your app, GitHub returns a temporary code
that you will need to exchange for an access token. The state
parameter is not returned when GitHub initiates the OAuth flow during app installation.
Exchange this code
for an access token.
POST http(s)://[hostname]/login/oauth/access_token
パラメータ
名前 | 種類 | 説明 |
---|---|---|
client_id | string | Required. The client ID for your GitHub App. |
client_secret | string | Required. The client secret for your GitHub App. |
コード | string | Required. The code you received as a response to Step 1. |
redirect_uri | string | The URL in your application where users are sent after authorization. |
状態 | string | The unguessable random string you provided in Step 1. |
レスポンス
By default, the response takes the following form:
access_token=e72e16c7e42f292c6912e7710c838347ae178b4a&token_type=bearer
3. Your GitHub App accesses the API with the user's access token
The user's access token allows the GitHub App to make requests to the API on behalf of a user.
Authorization: token OAUTH-TOKEN
GET http(s)://[hostname]/api/v3/user
For example, in curl you can set the Authorization header like this:
curl -H "Authorization: token OAUTH-TOKEN" http(s)://[hostname]/api/v3/user
Check which installation's resources a user can access
Note: To access the API with your GitHub App, you must provide a custom media type in the Accept
Header for your requests.
application/vnd.github.machine-man-preview+json
Warning: The API may change without advance notice during the preview period. Preview features are not supported for production use. If you experience any issues, contact GitHub Enterprise サイト管理者.
Once you have an OAuth token for a user, you can check which installations that user can access.
Authorization: token OAUTH-TOKEN
GET /user/installations
You can also check which repositories are accessible to a user for an installation.
Authorization: token OAUTH-TOKEN
GET /user/installations/:installation_id/repositories
More details can be found in: List app installations accessible to the user access token and List repositories accessible to the user access token.
Handling a revoked GitHub App authorization
If a user revokes their authorization of a GitHub App, the app will receive the github_app_authorization
webhook by default. GitHub Apps cannot unsubscribe from this event. Anyone can revoke their authorization of a GitHub App from their GitHub account settings page. Revoking the authorization of a GitHub App does not uninstall the GitHub App. You should program your GitHub App so that when it receives this webhook, it stops calling the API on behalf of the person who revoked the token. If your GitHub App continues to use a revoked access token, it will receive the 401 Bad Credentials
error.
User-level permissions
You can add user-level permissions to your GitHub App to access user resources, such as user emails, that are granted by individual users as part of the user authorization flow. User-level permissions differ from repository and organization-level permissions, which are granted at the time of installation on an organization or user account.
You can select user-level permissions from within your GitHub App's settings in the User permissions section of the Permissions & webhooks page. For more information on selecting permissions, see "Editing a GitHub App's permissions."
When a user installs your app on their account, the installation prompt will list the user-level permissions your app is requesting and explain that the app can ask individual users for these permissions.
Because user-level permissions are granted on an individual user basis, you can add them to your existing app without prompting users to upgrade. You will, however, need to send existing users through the user authorization flow to authorize the new permission and get a new user-to-server token for these requests.
User-to-server requests
While most of your API interaction should occur using your server-to-server installation access tokens, certain endpoints allow you to perform actions via the API using a user access token. Your app can make the following requests using GraphQL v4 or REST v3 endpoints.
