- URL differences
- GitHub Actions workflows from GitHub Marketplace
- Retirement of namespaces for actions accessed on GitHub.com
- GitHub Connect
API access
Integrators with the REST and GraphQL APIs must send requests to your enterprise's dedicated URL on GHE.com. For more information, see "About GitHub Enterprise Cloud with data residency."
URL differences
The URL formats for certain features and services vary between GitHub.com and GHE.com. If you're migrating to GHE.com and have automations or integrations that depend on URL values for GitHub.com, you will need to updates these values.
The following examples are not exhaustive.
| Feature | Example on GitHub.com | Example on GHE.com |
|---|---|---|
| GitHub Packages | The Container registry is located at ghcr.io. | The Container registry is located at https://containers.SUBDOMAIN.ghe.com. |
| User provisioning | The "tenant URL" for Microsoft Entra ID is https://api.github.com/scim/v2/enterprises/ENTERPRISE | The "tenant URL" for Microsoft Entra ID is https://api.SUBDOMAIN.ghe.com/scim/v2/enterprises/SUBDOMAIN |
| OIDC trusts for GitHub Actions deployments | The OIDC token is issued from https://token.actions.githubusercontent.com. | The OIDC token is issued from https://token.actions.SUBDOMAIN.ghe.com |
| Raw URLs | https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ | https://raw.SUBDOMAIN.ghe.com/ |
| Anonymized URLs for images and videos | https://private-user-images.githubusercontent.com/ | https://SUBDOMAIN.ghe.com/user-attachments/assets/ |
GitHub Actions workflows from GitHub Marketplace
GitHub Actions workflows from the GitHub Marketplace may not work as users expect.
- Some actions hard-code API calls to api.github.com, which don't currently work for enterprises on GHE.com.
- Some actions make requests to resources on GitHub.com, and these actions will not work for enterprises on GHE.com unless the author has built a mechanism to inject a secondary token for API calls. A
GITHUB_TOKENwithin a workflow run for your enterprise on GHE.com does not grant access to resources on GitHub.com.
Retirement of namespaces for actions accessed on GitHub.com
To ensure workflows use their intended actions and to block the potential for abuse, once an action on GitHub.com is used for the first time, the namespace associated with that action is retired in your enterprise. This blocks users from creating an organization and repository in your enterprise that match the action's namespace on GitHub.com.
To allow people to use namespaces that match actions you have used from GitHub.com, you can make a retired namespace available. See "Making retired namespaces available on GHE.com."
GitHub Connect
You can use GitHub Connect to connect to GHE.com from GitHub Enterprise Server.
- GitHub Connect features that rely on data from GitHub.com are not available.
- To enable GitHub Connect, you must configure your GitHub Enterprise Server instance to connect to your GHE.com subdomain. See "Enabling GitHub Connect for GHE.com."
