Description

My customer is concerned with the amount of permissions that the GitHub PAT requires and is specifically concerned with the admin:org and delete_repo permissions. They decided to deploy manually using the -c local option

Describe the solution you'd like

Provide options for the customer.

• I believe that the delete_repo is only required for a terraform destroy command. We could mention that it is optional in the documentation.
• For the admin:org option, modify the accelerator to use an existing approval team if it already exists. Then provide instructions to the customer as to how to create the team manually themselves.

Additional context

These are good points. We can alter the documentation around the delete repo perm and add the option of supplying an existing team.
