Packages

Use the REST API to interact with GitHub Packages.

About GitHub Packages

You can use the REST API to manage packages in your GitHub repositories and organizations. For more information, see "Deleting and restoring a package."

To use the REST API to manage GitHub Packages, you must authenticate using a personal access token (classic).

To access package metadata, your token must include the read:packages scope.
To delete packages and package versions, your token must include the read:packages and delete:packages scopes.
To restore packages and package versions, your token must include the read:packages and write:packages scopes.

If your package is in a registry that supports granular permissions, then your token does not need the repo scope to access or manage this package. If your package is in a registry that only supports repository-scoped permissions, then your token must also include the repo scope since your package inherits permissions from a GitHub repository. For a list of registries that only support repository-scoped permissions, see "About permissions for GitHub Packages."

To access resources in an organization with SSO enabled, you must enable SSO for your personal access token (classic). For more information, see "Authorizing a personal access token for use with SAML single sign-on."

If the package_type belongs to a GitHub Packages registry that only supports repository-scoped permissions, your token must also include the repo scope. For the list of these registries, see "About permissions for GitHub Packages."
If the package_type belongs to a GitHub Packages registry that supports granular permissions, you must have admin permissions to the package whose version you want to delete. For the list of these registries, see "About permissions for GitHub Packages."

Restore package version for an organization

Restores a specific package version in an organization.

You can restore a deleted package under the following conditions:

The package was deleted within the last 30 days.
The same package namespace and version is still available and not reused for a new package. If the same package namespace is not available, you will not be able to restore your package. In this scenario, to restore the deleted package, you must delete the new package that uses the deleted package's namespace first.

Restore a package for the authenticated user

Restores a package owned by the authenticated user.

You can restore a deleted package under the following conditions:

The package was deleted within the last 30 days.
The same package namespace and version is still available and not reused for a new package. If the same package namespace is not available, you will not be able to restore your package. In this scenario, to restore the deleted package, you must delete the new package that uses the deleted package's namespace first.

To use this endpoint, you must authenticate using an access token with the read:packages and write:packages scopes. If the package_type belongs to a GitHub Packages registry that only supports repository-scoped permissions, your token must also include the repo scope. For the list of GitHub Packages registries that only support repository-scoped permissions, see "About permissions for GitHub Packages."

Delete a package for a user

Deletes an entire package for a user. You cannot delete a public package if any version of the package has more than 5,000 downloads. In this scenario, contact GitHub support for further assistance.

To use this endpoint, you must authenticate using an access token with the read:packages and delete:packages scopes. In addition:

If the package_type belongs to a GitHub Packages registry that only supports repository-scoped permissions, your token must also include the repo scope. For the list of these registries, see "About permissions for GitHub Packages."
If the package_type belongs to a GitHub Packages registry that supports granular permissions, you must have admin permissions to the package you want to delete. For the list of these registries, see "About permissions for GitHub Packages."

Parameters for "Delete a package for a user"

Headers
Name, Type, Description
`accept` string Setting to `application/vnd.github+json` is recommended.
Path parameters

To use this endpoint, you must authenticate using an access token with the read:packages and write:packages scopes. In addition:
