Sample - GitHub REST API
GET/orgs/{org}/issues

List organization issues assigned to the authenticated user

List issues in an organization assigned to the authenticated user.

[!NOTE] GitHub's REST API considers every pull request an issue, but not every issue is a pull request. For this reason, "Issues" endpoints may return both issues and pull requests in the response. You can identify pull requests by the pull_request key. Be aware that the id of a pull request returned from "Issues" endpoints will be an issue id. To find out the pull request id, use the "List pull requests" endpoint.

This endpoint supports the following custom media types. For more information, see "Media types."

  • application/vnd.github.raw+json: Returns the raw markdown body. Response will include body. This is the default if you do not pass any specific media type.
  • application/vnd.github.text+json: Returns a text only representation of the markdown body. Response will include body_text.
  • application/vnd.github.html+json: Returns HTML rendered from the body's markdown. Response will include body_html.
  • application/vnd.github.full+json: Returns raw, text, and HTML representations. Response will include body, body_text, and body_html.
  • RetriesRetries up to 2×, 500ms backoff, 30s timeout.
