# REST-API-Endpunkte für Git-BLOBs

Verwende die REST-API, um mit einem Git-Blob (Binary Large Object) zu interagieren. Git-Blob ist der Objekttyp, der zum Speichern des Inhalts jeder Datei in einem Repository verwendet wird.

## Informationen zu Git-Blobs

Ein Git-Blob (Binary Large Object) ist der Objekttyp, der zum Speichern des Inhalts jeder Datei in einem Repository verwendet wird. Der SHA-1-Hash der Datei wird berechnet und im Blobobjekt gespeichert. Mit diesen Endpunkten können Sie [BLOB-Objekte](https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-Internals-Git-Objects) in Ihrer Git-Datenbank GitHublesen und schreiben. Blobs nutzen benutzerdefinierte Medientypen. Weitere Informationen zur Verwendung von Medientypen in der API findest du unter [Erste Schritte mit der REST-API](/de/enterprise-server@3.22/rest/using-the-rest-api/getting-started-with-the-rest-api#media-types).

> \[!NOTE]
> Most endpoints use `Authorization: Bearer <YOUR-TOKEN>` and `Accept: application/vnd.github+json` headers, plus `X-GitHub-Api-Version: 2026-03-10`. Curl examples below omit these standard headers for brevity.
