GitHub Enterprise

GitHub Enterprise is GitHub's offering for organizations that need advanced security, compliance, identity, and scale on top of the GitHub platform. It ships in two flavors: GitHub Enterprise Cloud, a hosted multi-tenant service on api.github.com with enterprise-managed users and SAML SSO; and GitHub Enterprise Server (GHES), a self-hosted appliance with the same REST and GraphQL APIs served from a customer's domain at /api/v3 and /api/graphql. Both expose the full GitHub REST API for repositories, issues, pull requests, actions, packages, advanced security, audit log, SCIM, and admin operations, authenticated with personal access tokens or GitHub App tokens.

GitHub Enterprise publishes 9 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Actions API, Code Scanning API, Enterprise Admin API, and 6 more. Tagged areas include Source Control, DevOps, CI/CD, Code Hosting, and Enterprise.

GitHub Enterprise’s developer surface includes authentication, documentation, pricing, signup flow, engineering blog, and 6 more developer resources.

Create-or-Update Ergonomics applies to this provider. This API accepts writes, so it carries 10 points of the composite. It is scored from the published contracts themselves: whether a caller can create-or-update in one call, whether the write accepts a key the caller already holds, and whether the response says which branch ran. Without that, every write needs a search-and-branch in front of it, and the first time that check is skipped a duplicate record is created. Scored against the observed mean rather than raw — a provider at the catalog average is unchanged by this facet, not penalised by it.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/github-enterprise: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts. Submit an artifact on GitHub — free → Manage your own listing — the Influence plan, $499/mo →
