What would you like?

Document the necessary permission settings for GITHUB_TOKEN.

Why is this needed?

As documented in the README Automatic PR number and URL detection, if the GITHUB_TOKEN is set when recording to Cypress Cloud, PR information is extracted.

Restrictive permissions for the GITHUB_TOKEN can however have been set in the enterprise, organization, repository or workflow which may prevent this working.

  • Can you provide any assistance on this? It's a result of feat: [CYCLOUD-1447] Auto-detect PR numbers #1009 and I'm not sure that I understand the whole story yet, so I'm trying to reverse engineer it.
  • I don't know exactly what circumstances permissions are needed. In a test with all permissions disabled (permissions: {}) recording was successful. From reports of other users I know that this is not always the case.
