Get a user using their ID

Provides publicly available information about someone with a GitHub account. This method takes their durable user ID instead of their login, which can change over time.

The email key in the following response is the publicly visible email address from your GitHub profile page. When setting up your profile, you can select a primary email address to be “public” which provides an email entry for this endpoint. If you do not set a public email address for email, then it will have a value of null. You only see publicly visible email addresses when authenticated with GitHub. For more information, see Authentication.

The Emails API enables you to list all of your email addresses, and toggle a primary email to be visible publicly. For more information, see "Emails API".

Get contextual information for a user

Provides hovercard information. You can find out more about someone in relation to their pull requests, issues, repositories, and organizations.

The subject_type and subject_id parameters provide context for the person's hovercard, which returns more information than without the parameters. For example, if you wanted to find out more about octocat who owns the Spoon-Knife repository, you would use a subject_type value of repository and a subject_id value of 1300192 (the ID of the Spoon-Knife repository).

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