What article on docs.github.com is affected?

For the endpoints and permissions specified in REST API endpoints for teams (https://docs.github.com/en/rest/teams/teams?apiVersion=2022-11-28#add-or-update-team-repository-permissions), they are not documented on the following pages:

• https://docs.github.com/en/rest/authentication/endpoints-available-for-github-app-installation-access-tokens?apiVersion=2022-11-28
• https://docs.github.com/en/rest/authentication/endpoints-available-for-github-app-user-access-tokens?apiVersion=2022-11-28
• https://docs.github.com/en/rest/authentication/endpoints-available-for-fine-grained-personal-access-tokens?apiVersion=2022-11-28
• https://docs.github.com/en/rest/authentication/permissions-required-for-github-apps?apiVersion=2022-11-28
• https://docs.github.com/en/rest/authentication/permissions-required-for-fine-grained-personal-access-tokens?apiVersion=2022-11-28

For example, if you search for the (i guess older?) endpoints that contain {team_slug} and some others:

/orgs/{org}/teams/{team_slug}
/orgs/{org}/teams/{team_slug}/projects
/orgs/{org}/teams/{team_slug}/projects/{project_id}
/orgs/{org}/teams/{team_slug}/repos
/orgs/{org}/teams/{team_slug}/repos/{owner}/{repo}
/orgs/{org}/teams/{team_slug}/teams
/user/teams

They do not appear on those pages.

What changes are you suggesting?

Document them, because some of them work with Fine-grained personal access tokens and some don't, and some work with GitHub App installation access tokens and some don't.

It's really confusing because crucially the ability to create a repo and assign a team with admin permission to it is only seemingly available through PUT /orgs/{org}/teams/{team_slug}/repos/{owner}/{repo} with personal access tokens (classic and fine-grained), but not available to a GitHub App installed in an organization, which seems like a big gap and an issue for organizations that restrict access with PATs and want to automate actions on GitHub through GitHub Apps.

Furthermore, creating a new repo with the team_id only grants that team read access, which is not useful (see: github/rest-api-description#3689).

Overall it seems like this aspect of the documentation has been neglected.
