I have a service account that I need to use to access GitHub.
This service account has two-factor authentication enabled.
I do not have access to the UI.
I do have the password for that service account.
I need to create a personal access token and to accept transfer of a GitHub app to this service account.
Is this possible using the GitHub API v4?
There is a feature request pending using the official GitHub CLI gh
Create/Revoke Personal Access Tokens #2531
Proposed solution
Calling
gh token createwill create a new token and output the token value Callinggh token revokewill revoke the token passed in
But there is no obvious existing API to create/revoke a PAT, only SSH keys, which could be a workaround, if you can use SSH URLS: the PAT is only needed for HTTPS URLs.
However, for checking an OAuth App token, you do need indeed a token.
