This version of GitHub Enterprise was discontinued on 2023-07-06. 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. 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."

Repository invitations

Use the REST API to view and manage invitations to collaborate on a repository.

About repository invitations

You can view and manage invitations to collaborate on a repository. The invited users (or external services on behalf of invited users) can choose to accept or decline the invitations.

To add a user as a collaborator, use the Collaborators endpoints instead. For more information, see "Collaborators."

Note that the repo:invite OAuth scope grants targeted access to invitations without also granting access to repository code, while the repo scope grants permission to code as well as invitations.

List repository invitations

Works with GitHub Apps

When authenticating as a user with admin rights to a repository, this endpoint will list all currently open repository invitations.
