Possibly incorrect examples for content attachments / content references

[dtakahas]

What article on docs.github.com is affected?

https://docs.github.com/en/rest/reference/apps#create-a-content-attachment

What part(s) of the article would you like to see updated?

We have a GitHub App that creates content attachments and we received an email that the content_references URL path was changing to have the repository owner and repository name prefixed to it:

https://api.github.com/content_references/1512/attachments

becomes

https://api.github.com/OWNER/REPOSITORY/content_references/1512/attachments

The examples in the article appear to have been updated that way. However when I tried to update our app, I was receiving 404s. My colleague had a hunch and it began working again when we added the prefix /repos/ before the owner/repo part (e.g. https://api.github.com/repos/OWNER/REPOSITORY/content_references/1512/attachments)

Does that article possibly need to be corrected to have that prefix in the URLs?

Thanks for noticing and reporting this, @dtakahas 🙇‍♂️

Yep, you are correct; this was an error with that recent update 🙁. It has been fixed internally, and the docs have recently been updated: https://docs.github.com/en/rest/reference/apps#create-a-content-attachment
