Use the REST API to manage GitHub notifications.
About GitHub notificationsYou can use the REST API to manage GitHub notifications. For more information about notifications, see About notifications.
All calls to these endpoints require the notifications
or repo
scopes. You will need the repo
scope to access issues and commits from their respective endpoints.
Notifications are returned as "threads". A thread contains information about the current discussion of an issue, pull request, or commit.
Notifications are optimized for polling with the Last-Modified
header. If there are no new notifications, you will see a 304 Not Modified
response, leaving your current rate limit untouched. There is an X-Poll-Interval
header that specifies how often (in seconds) you are allowed to poll. In times of high server load, the time may increase. Please obey the header.

About notification reasons
These GET endpoints return a reason
key. These reason
s correspond to events that trigger a notification.
There are a few potential reason
s for receiving a notification.
approval_requested
You were requested to review and approve a deployment. For more information, see Reviewing deployments. assign
You were assigned to the issue. author
You created the thread. comment
You commented on the thread. ci_activity
A GitHub Actions workflow run that you triggered was completed. invitation
You accepted an invitation to contribute to the repository. manual
You subscribed to the thread (via an issue or pull request). member_feature_requested
Organization members have requested to enable a feature such as Copilot. mention
You were specifically @mentioned in the content. review_requested
You, or a team you're a member of, were requested to review a pull request. security_alert
GitHub discovered a security vulnerability in your repository. security_advisory_credit
You were credited for contributing to a security advisory. state_change
You changed the thread state (for example, closing an issue or merging a pull request). subscribed
You're watching the repository. team_mention
You were on a team that was mentioned.
Note that the reason
is modified on a per-thread basis, and can change, if the reason
on a later notification is different.
For example, if you are the author of an issue, subsequent notifications on that issue will have a reason
of author
. If you're then @mentioned on the same issue, the notifications you fetch thereafter will have a reason
of mention
. The reason
remains as mention
, regardless of whether you're ever mentioned again.
List all notifications for the current user, sorted by most recently updated.

Marks all notifications as "read" for the current user. If the number of notifications is too large to complete in one request, you will receive a 202 Accepted
status and GitHub will run an asynchronous process to mark notifications as "read." To check whether any "unread" notifications remain, you can use the List notifications for the authenticated user endpoint and pass the query parameter all=false
.
This endpoint does not work with GitHub App user access tokens, GitHub App installation access tokens, or fine-grained personal access tokens.
Parameters for "Mark notifications as read" Headers Name, Type, Descriptionaccept
string
Setting to application/vnd.github+json
is recommended.
last_read_at
string
Describes the last point that notifications were checked. Anything updated since this time will not be marked as read. If you omit this parameter, all notifications are marked as read. This is a timestamp in ISO 8601 format: YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SSZ
. Default: The current timestamp.
read
boolean
Whether the notification has been read.

If you are watching a repository, you receive notifications for all threads by default. Use this endpoint to ignore future notifications for threads until you comment on the thread or get an @mention.
You can also use this endpoint to subscribe to threads that you are currently not receiving notifications for or to subscribed to threads that you have previously ignored.
Unsubscribing from a conversation in a repository that you are not watching is functionally equivalent to the Delete a thread subscription endpoint.
Fine-grained access tokens for "Set a thread subscription"This endpoint does not work with GitHub App user access tokens, GitHub App installation access tokens, or fine-grained personal access tokens.

Marks all notifications in a repository as "read" for the current user. If the number of notifications is too large to complete in one request, you will receive a 202 Accepted
status and GitHub will run an asynchronous process to mark notifications as "read." To check whether any "unread" notifications remain, you can use the List repository notifications for the authenticated user endpoint and pass the query parameter all=false
.
This endpoint does not work with GitHub App user access tokens, GitHub App installation access tokens, or fine-grained personal access tokens.
