GitHub App authentication as alternative to PATs #212
-
|
Are there any plans for supporting GitHub app authentication as an alternative to the PATs? Outside of the security improvements related to github apps, PATs share the hourly rate limit of the account under which they are created, by default 5000, while every github app gets its own rate limit allocation of 15000 requests per hour. |

I don't see why not. Will look into this for the next release. In the meantime, if you're hitting rate limits, try upgrading to v0.1.4. It should alleviate some issues with many requests. Also, from a security perspective, version v0.1.4 is also capable of using JIT runners. It should do so by default unless explicitly disabled. |

@gabriel-samfira just following up on this, we switched over to github app authentication about a week ago and everything seems to be working well. Closing this discussion for now, thank you. |
