Thank you!

It does say which sounds really ominous: https://imgur.com/a/w8M0wcE

The link on the page points to https://docs.github.com/en/apps/using-github-apps/authorizin... which basically says the app can do whatever whenever.

I think if the wording was different I would be able to successfully pitch this to my work.

It's unfortunately terrible wording from GitHub for any app install: https://github.com/orgs/community/discussions/37117

Despite the scary warning, you're only granting the listed permissions.

What a terrible UX by Github.

> Despite the scary warning, you're only granting the listed permissions.

Is there a way for me to verify that that's the case? At least after granting the permissions?

Yes you can. If you click on your profile, and then Settings->Applications->Configure you can see the permissions

If you have it installed for an organization its slightly different. Go to the organization, then Settings->Github Apps->Configure.

For me at least, it lists the permissions the app has. Additionally, if we ever want to request new permissions in the future, you will have to grant them.

I'll try that, thanks

This is weird, and it does sound ominous. I went to double check the configuration!

On-prem is on our roadmap, we can definitely make that happen for you. We just went this route for now to make the app easily accessible to everyone
