About GitHub App URL parameters
You can add query parameters to these URLs to preselect the configuration of a GitHub App on a personal or organization account:
- User account:
https://github.com/settings/apps/new - Organization account:
https://github.com/organizations/:org/settings/apps/new
The person creating the app can edit the preselected values from the GitHub App registration page, before submitting the app. If you do not include required parameters in the URL query string, like name, the person creating the app will need to input a value before submitting the app.
The following URL creates a new public app called octocat-github-app with a preconfigured description and callback URL. This URL also selects read and write permissions for checks, subscribes to the check_run and check_suite webhook events, and selects the option to request user authorization (OAuth) during installation:
https://github.com/settings/apps/new?name=octocat-github-app&description=An%20Octocat%20App&callback_url=https://example.com&request_oauth_on_install=true&public=true&checks=write&events[]=check_run&events[]=check_suite
The complete list of available query parameters, permissions, and events is listed in the sections below.
GitHub App configuration parameters
| 名前 | 種類 | 説明 |
|---|---|---|
name | string | The name of the GitHub App. Give your app a clear and succinct name. Your app cannot have the same name as an existing GitHub user, unless it is your own user or organization name. A slugged version of your app's name will be shown in the user interface when your integration takes an action. |
説明 | string | A description of the GitHub App. |
url | string | The full URL of your GitHub App's website homepage. |
callback_url | string | The full URL to redirect to after someone authorizes an installation. This URL is used if your app needs to identify and authorize user-to-server requests. |
request_oauth_on_install | boolean | If your app authorizes users using the OAuth flow, you can set this option to true to allow people to authorize the app when they install it, saving a step. If you select this option, the setup_url becomes unavailable and users will be redirected to your callback_url after installing the app. |
setup_url | string | The full URL to redirect to after someone installs the GitHub App if the app requires additional setup after installation. |
setup_on_update | boolean | Set to true to redirect people to the setup URL when installations have been updated, for example, after repositories are added or removed. |
public | boolean | Set to true when your GitHub App is available to the public or false when it is only accessible to the owner of the app. |
webhook_url | string | The full URL that you would like to send webhook event payloads to. |
webhook_secret | string | You can specify a secret to secure your webhooks. See "Securing your webhooks" for more details. |
イベント | array of strings | webhook イベント. Some webhook events require read or write permissions for a resource before you can select the event when registering a new GitHub App. See the "GitHub App webhook events" section for available events and their required permissions. You can select multiple events in a query string. For example, events[]=public&events[]=label. |
ドメイン | string | The URL of a content reference. |
single_file_name | string | When you grant read or write access to the single_file permission, this field provides the path to the single file your GitHub App will manage. |
GitHub App permissions
You can select permissions in a query string using the permission name in the following table as the query parameter name and the permission type as the query value. For example, to select Read & write permissions in the user interface for contents, your query string would include &contents=write. To select Read-only permissions in the user interface for blocking, your query string would include &blocking=read. To select no-access in the user interface for checks, your query string would not include the checks permission.
