GitHub secrets

Name Value Required
ORG_TOKEN A repo, read:org and read:enterprise scoped Personal Access Token true
ACTIONS_STEP_DEBUG true Enables diagnostic logging false

💡 The read:enterprise scope is only needed when running the Action on the enterprise level.

💡 Disable token expiration to avoid failed workflow runs when running on a schedule.

💡 If the organization has SAML SSO enabled, make sure the personal access token is authorized to access the organization.

Action inputs

If the organization name in the workflow is left blank, the Action will generate a report for the organization the workflow is located in. If an enterprise slug is used in the workflow, this will supersede the organization parameter and the Action will run on the enterprise level instead.

Name Description Default Location Required
org Organization different than workflow context workflow.yml false
enterprise Enterprise slug, to retrieve invitations for the entire enterprise workflow.yml false
sort Sort the CSV report by column (select column in JSON format) created_at action.yml false
