Team discussions

The Team discussions API allows you to get, create, edit, and delete discussion posts on a team's page.

About the Team discussions API

You can use team discussions to have conversations that are not specific to a repository or project. Any member of the team's organization can create and read public discussion posts. For more details, see "About team discussions." To learn more about commenting on a discussion post, see the team discussion comments API.

This API is only available to authenticated members of the team's organization. OAuth access tokens require the read:org scope. GitHub generates the team's slug from the team name.
