Use cases
Illustrative examples of everyday lookups. They describe how the features combine, not any real customer, and every name in them is made up.
Who is this account?
A log line shows an account name. One lookup returns the directory user behind it, or tells you it is a directory service account.
Typical lookups
- GET /api/ldap-sync-cache/user/jdoe
- Title and manager
- Service-account flag
Give a group access to its repos
Bind a directory group to a GitHub team, preview the grants, then confirm. New members get access on the next access run.
Typical lookups
- POST /api/access/bindings
- Preview, then confirm
- access.reconciled event
Put the right keys on a host
A provisioning script fetches the SSH keys of everyone in a group and writes them to a host.
Typical lookups
- GET /keys/platform-admins
- One key per member
- Re-run after changes
Show a public team page
An admin publishes a group and its people. A public page searches them without credentials and never sees personal fields.
Typical lookups
- PATCH /api/directory/groups/{id}/mode
- GET /public/search?type=groups
- group.public_changed event
Look up anyone in your directory
