REST API endpoints for packages

About GitHub Packages

GitHub Packages supports a range of package managers for publishing packages. For more information, see Introduction to GitHub Packages.

After you publish a package, you can use the REST API to manage the package 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.

Restore a package for an organization

Restores an entire package in an organization.

You can restore a deleted package under the following conditions:

Delete package version for an organization

Deletes a specific package version in an organization. If the package is public and the package version has more than 5,000 downloads, you cannot delete the package version. In this scenario, contact GitHub support for further assistance.

The authenticated user must have admin permissions in the organization to use this endpoint. If the package_type belongs to a GitHub Packages registry that supports granular permissions, the authenticated user must also have admin permissions to the package. For the list of these registries, see "About permissions for GitHub Packages."

OAuth app tokens and personal access tokens (classic) need the read:packages and delete:packages scopes to use this endpoint. For more information, see "About permissions for GitHub Packages."

Fine-grained access tokens for "Delete package version for an organization"

This endpoint works with the following fine-grained token types:

GitHub App installation access tokens

The fine-grained token does not require any permissions.

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.

The authenticated user must have admin permissions in the organization to use this endpoint. If the package_type belongs to a GitHub Packages registry that supports granular permissions, the authenticated user must also have admin permissions to the package. For the list of these registries, see "About permissions for GitHub Packages."
