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.
