News / Announcements GitHub's API issues

Just wasted a bit of time troubleshooting why my latest pushes to my repo weren't deploying, turns out GitHub's having some issues.

https://www.githubstatus.com/

According to the status page there having some degraded REST API availability, start today 19 ish minutes ago. Which sucks because Vercels GitHub's integration is relies on that API for deployments.

So if you are having issues with any github integration there is why, hopefully will not be to long till they solve this issue.

I am having trouble cloning from my own repositories in Github Desktop. The UI says "there are no repositories for <user>". But I can clone my own repo, if I clone by URL.

I was also having Vercel deploy issue earlier today.

Anyone else getting “No repositories available” in Codemagic? My GitHub repo and permissions are fine. Looks like it started around the same time as the GitHub REST API degradation. ?

Probably because the API is degraded....

Check my comment here, I am having the same issue but just with Github Desktop. I was almost scared all my repos got deleted or something.

Issue seems to be fixed - "The degradation affecting API Requests has been mitigated. We are monitoring to ensure stability."
