List secret scanning alerts for a repository

Lists secret scanning alerts for an eligible repository, from newest to oldest. To use this endpoint, you must be an administrator for the repository or for the organization that owns the repository, and you must use a personal access token with the repo scope or security_events scope. For public repositories, you may instead use the public_repo scope.

GitHub Apps must have the secret_scanning_alerts read permission to use this endpoint.

get /repos/{owner}/{repo}/secret-scanning/alerts

Parameters

Name	Type	In	Description
`accept`	string	header	Setting to`application/vnd.github.v3+json` is recommended.
`owner`	string	path
`repo`	string	path
`state`	string	query	Set to `open` or `resolved` to only list secret scanning alerts in a specific state.
`secret_type`	string	query	A comma-separated list of secret types to return. By default all secret types are returned. See "Secret scanning patterns" for a complete list of secret types (API slug).
`resolution`	string	query	A comma-separated list of resolutions. Only secret scanning alerts with one of these resolutions are listed. Valid resolutions are `false_positive`, `wont_fix`, `revoked`, `pattern_edited`, `pattern_deleted` or `used_in_tests`.
`page`	integer	query	Page number of the results to fetch. Default: `1`
`per_page`	integer	query	Results per page (max 100) Default: `30`
