Github API Create Issues return 404 Not found - github-api

Question

I am making a request to the below URL-
Post https://api.github.com/repos/kvimal/2048/issues
With my Token as a header for authorization.
The Curl Request
curl -i -X POST https://api.github.com/repos/kvimal/2048/issues -d "{title:'hey'}" -H "Authorization: Bearer xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" -H "Content-Type: application/json"
And GitHub sends a response 404 Not found. I have reade the Documentation and as far as i have observed i am doing it by the github standards. Can anyone Help with this issues?

Answer 1

As illustrated in this python script, the header should be using 'token' not Bearer'
headers = {
'Content-Type':'application/json',
'Authorization': 'token %s' % token,
}
(That script doesn't use curl, but give an idea of the header)
For curl queries, see this curl POST tutorial:
curl -H "Authorization: token OAUTH-TOKEN"
And the POST message must be complete as well (as in this python script)
issue = {'title': title,
'body': body,
'assignee': assignee,
'milestone': milestone,
'labels': labels}
# Add the issue to our repository
r = session.post(url, json=issue)
(again, not curl, but gives you an example of the body)

Answer 2

Go to "Edit personal access token" page, checkout the "Select scopes" session.
Make sure the token has been granted required access right.
I encountered similar case when trying to create public repo with 'Authorization: token ...' header.
