Authorizations

Authorization · string · header · required

JWT bearer token signed with your organization's registered signing key. There is no OAuth authorization server; you mint tokens yourself and the token's scopes claim carries the granted permission scopes. Public scopes: git:read (read repository contents), git:write (write branches, commits, tags, and notes), repo:write (create and manage repositories), org:read (list an organization's repositories). Each operation's security requirement names the scopes it requires. See https://code.storage/docs/getting-started/authentication for how to mint tokens.
