Esta versão do GitHub Enterprise foi descontinuada em 2022-10-12. Nenhum lançamento de patch será feito, mesmo para questões críticas de segurança. Para obter melhor desempenho, segurança aprimorada e novos recursos, atualize para a última versão do GitHub Enterprise. Para obter ajuda com a atualização, entre em contato com o suporte do GitHub Enterprise.

We've recently moved some of the REST API documentation. If you can't find what you're looking for, you might try the Actions REST API page.

Management Console

The Management Console API helps you manage your GitHub Enterprise Server installation.

You must explicitly set the port number when making API calls to the Management Console. If TLS is enabled on your enterprise, the port number is 8443; otherwise, the port number is 8080.

If you don't want to provide a port number, you'll need to configure your tool to automatically follow redirects.

You may also need to add the -k flag when using curl, since GitHub Enterprise Server uses a self-signed certificate before you add your own TLS certificate.

Authentication

You need to pass your Management Console password as an authentication token to every Management Console API endpoint except /setup/api/start.

Use the api_key parameter to send this token with each request. For example:

$ curl -L 'https://HOSTNAME:ADMIN-PORT/setup/api?api_key=YOUR_PASSWORD'

You can also use standard HTTP authentication to send this token. For example:

$ curl -L -u "api_key:YOUR_PASSWORD" 'https://HOSTNAME:ADMIN-PORT/setup/api'

Get the configuration status

This endpoint allows you to check the status of the most recent configuration process:

Note that you may need to wait several seconds after you start a process before you can check its status.

The different statuses are:

StatusDescription
PENDINGThe job has not started yet
CONFIGURINGThe job is running
DONEThe job has finished correctly
FAILEDThe job has finished unexpectedly

Create a GitHub license

When you boot a GitHub instance for the first time, you can use the following endpoint to upload a license.

Note that you need to POST to /setup/api/configure to start the actual configuration process.

When using this endpoint, your GitHub instance must have a password set. This can be accomplished two ways:

  1. If you're working directly with the API before accessing the web interface, you must pass in the password parameter to set your password.
  2. If you set up your instance via the web interface before accessing the API, your calls to this endpoint do not need the password parameter.

Note: The request body for this operation must be submitted as application/x-www-form-urlencoded data. You can submit a parameter value as a string, or you can use a tool such as curl to submit a parameter value as the contents of a text file. For more information, see the curl documentation.

Parâmetros

Headers
Name, Type, Description
acceptstring

Setting to application/vnd.github+json is recommended.

Body parameters
Name, Type, Description
licensestringRequired

The content of your .ghl license file.

passwordstring

You must provide a password only if you are uploading your license for the first time. If you previously set a password through the web interface, you don't need this parameter.

settingsstring

An optional JSON string containing the installation settings. For a list of the available settings, see the Get settings endpoint.
