To use project with Github App Token, DeviceFlow must be set up. #88

Closed dennougorilla closed 1 year ago

Although the documentation recommends Github App, it will not work properly without DeviceFlow enabled. I think we need to explicitly state this somewhere.

Related to #72.

Hi there @dennougorilla! Thanks for the issue and PR.

Although the documentation recommends Github App, it will not work properly without DeviceFlow enabled. I think we need to explicitly state this somewhere.

This is a different and older kind of integration called an OAuth app. I recommend using GitHub Apps instead, which have their own identity and a sense of "installation" on repositories. Hope that makes sense, but if not, feel free to use a Personal Access Token.
