[FEAT]: Manage github personal access tokens (PATs) with terraform

[nitrocode]

Describe the need

I'd like to create and manage permissions of personal access tokens for a service account with terraform

In cloudflare, in a service user account, I issued a user-management token, and then use cloudflare_api_token to create other tokens and manage their permissions as well as allowed IPs that can use this token. After the token is created, I can save it in AWS SSM store.

We can do this in AWS and in cloudflare and I'd like to do this with github as well.

Thanks!

That StackOverflow link is interesting. Is that API public? I can't seem to find docs about it, and I didn't think we supported such an API.

Seconding this, as it would be helpful in order to have terraform setting up GitHub integrations on other systems (Snyk to take an example), where I'd like to be able to automate tainting and rotation of any such tokens easily using Terraform.

That API has unfortunately been revoked. If you can help petition github to make a replacement, please do.

How can we petition Github?
