PATCH/orgs/{org}/properties/installations/values/{property_name}

Create or update external custom property values for a property across organization repositories

Create new or update existing external custom property values for a single named property across repositories that belong to an organization.

Up to 100 repository values can be updated in a single request. Repositories not included in the request are left unchanged.

Using a value of null for a repository will remove or 'unset' the property value for that repository. A request that only contains null values for a property that does not yet exist is a no-op.

To use this endpoint, the authenticated GitHub App must have the organization_external_properties_for_repos:write permission.

  • IdempotentThe SDK sends Idempotency-Key, so a retried request is only applied once.
