Currently we use a PAT for everything, can we convert this to use a GitHub App? That way it is not tied to a user, which is better to use in an enterprise setting.

Setup would be:

  1. Create an App
  2. Use the ClientId and ClientSecret in the secrets
  3. Get a token during execution through gh-token

Things to check:

  • Can this work across orgs? We make the fork and the checks in another org. Maybe use the App from that org?
  • Do we then still need an App in this org (rajbos / or this repo github-actions-requests)?
