This version of GitHub Enterprise Server was discontinued on 2024-03-26. No patch releases will be made, even for critical security issues. For better performance, improved security, and new features, upgrade to the latest version of GitHub Enterprise Server. For help with the upgrade, contact GitHub Enterprise support.

After a site administrator upgrades your Enterprise Server instance to Enterprise Server 3.9 or later, the REST API will be versioned. To learn how to find your instance's version, see "About versions of GitHub Docs". For more information, see "About API versioning."

REST API endpoints for team discussions

Use the REST API to get, create, edit, and delete discussion posts on a team's page.

About team discussions

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 "REST API endpoints for team discussion comments."

These endpoints are 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.

List discussions

List all discussions on a team's page.

Note: You can also specify a team by org_id and team_id using the route GET /organizations/{org_id}/team/{team_id}/discussions.

OAuth app tokens and personal access tokens (classic) need the read:discussion scope to use this endpoint.
