This provider also exposes a GitHub-compatible endpoint. This endpoint can be used by applications, which support authenticating against GitHub Enterprise, but not generic OpenID Connect.
To use any of the GitHub Compatibility scopes, you have to use the GitHub Compatibility Endpoints.
| Endpoint | URL |
| --------------- | --------------------------- |
| Authorization | `/login/oauth/authorize` |
| Token | `/login/oauth/access_token` |
| User Info | `/user` |
| User Teams Info | `/user/teams` |
To access the user's email address, a scope of `user:email` is required. To access their groups, `read:org` is required. Because these scopes are handled by a different endpoint, they are not customisable as a Scope Mapping.
This grant is used to convert an authorization code to an access token (and optionally refresh token). The authorization code is retrieved through the Authorization flow, and can only be used once, and expires quickly.
:::info
Starting with authentik 2024.1, applications only receive an access token. To receive a refresh token, applications must be allowed to request the `offline_access` scope in authentik and also be configured to request the scope.
By default, every user that has access to an application can request any of the configured scopes. Starting with authentik 2022.4, you can do additional checks for the scope in an expression policy (bound to the application):
```python
# There are additional fields set in the context, use `ak_logger.debug(request.context)` to see them.
if "my-admin-scope" in request.context["oauth_scopes"]:
When a client does not request any scopes, authentik will treat the request as if all configured scopes were requested. Depending on the configured authorization flow, consent still needs to be given, and all scopes are listed there.
