Getting Started

This extension brings GitHub Gist support to Raycast through the personal access tokens. To get started, first:

  • Login to your GitHub instance (Eg. https://github.com)
  • Click on your avatar image in the right upper corner
  • From the dropdown menu, click on Settings
  • On the left-hand side, click on Developer settings.
  • On the left-hand side, click on Personal access tokens.
  • On this page, we'll create a new access token. Click on Generate new token in the upper-right.
  • Leave a note for your token (Eg. Raycast). This will help you identify it in the future.
  • You'll need to check the following boxes to ensure this extension can perform properly:
    • repo
    • gist
    • user
  • Click Generate token and save this value somewhere. You'll only be able to see this once.

Future updates to this extension will offer more functionality that may require additional scopes be defined in this token.
