Configuring a Personal Access Token

You can use a personal access token instead of logging in through OAuth to authenticate your GitHub account:

The following link can be used as a shortcut to create your token: https://github.com/settings/tokens/new?description=Raycast&scopes=repo,read:org,read:user,read:project,notifications

Otherwise, you can manually create it:

1. Go to https://github.com/settings/tokens
2. Click "Generate new token" then "Generate new token (classic)
3. Add a "Note" for the token.
4. Select the required scopes:

• repo
• read:org
• read:user
• read:project
• notifications

5. Click "Generate token".
6. Copy the token in the "GitHub Token" field in the extension's preferences.

FAQ

Can I use my GitHub pull request or issue template?

Yes! Templates for pull requests and issues are supported as long as they are in the .github directory.

Why can't I see my GitHub organization?

Double-check that you have enabled the correct settings for your organizations on the GitHub Oauth page to ensure that Raycast is able to show you the data from those repos.
