`gh api` example paths should not have a leading slash

What article on docs.github.com is affected?

This is in any article that uses the cURL/JavaScript/GitHub CLI examples.

Here is what it looks like for me:

That request will produce a 404. Whereas this request works:

gh api \
  -H "Accept: application/vnd.github+json" \
  repos/OWNER/REPO/actions/artifacts

The only difference is in removal of the leading slash.

What changes are you suggesting?

The examples don't work as written, apparently due to the leading slash before repos. That slash is (correctly) not used in the examples in the documentation of the gh api subcommand.

I presume these examples are generated and that a single code change would correct all instances.

Thank you for opening this issue! Changes to the REST API schema can be requested in github/rest-api-description. I will transfer your issue over to that open source repo.

I'm not finding this to be an issue. gh api works for me with and without the slash mentioned. Here's my output for the top trending repo today

% gh api \
  -H "Accept: application/vnd.github+json" \
  /repos/acheong08/ChatGPT/actions/artifacts
{
  "total_count": 0,
  "artifacts": []
}

% gh api \
  -H "Accept: application/vnd.github+json" \
  repos/acheong08/ChatGPT/actions/artifacts
{
  "total_count": 0,
  "artifacts": []
}

You might need to update your gh version

% gh --version
gh version 2.22.1 (2023-01-27)
https://github.com/cli/cli/releases/tag/v2.22.1

Thanks for looking into this, and sorry about the noise. I can't reproduce it now either. 🤷🏽
