How can I deal with a star a repository error with GitHub api?

I'm trying to star/unstar repository with the GitHub REST API, but it isn't working properly.

According to the document, I should use PUT to star a repository.

Swift Code

But it isn't working; the response is always Not Found 404.

The URL is not wrong.
I renewed my access token but is still not working. I made another account, set Content-Length as 0 in the header but it still doesn't work. I tried with other repositories but it's still not working. And When I create a new account accessToken, I checked all of the scopes, doesn't work either. Also, Unstar (delete) sends the same response too.
Not found 404. All the other API calls work fine.

Please help.

Solution

  • It looks like you tried to attach your owner and repository as query parameters.

    If you are referring to this API call (PUT /user/starred/{owner}/{repo}), then you need to include them as positional parameters instead. Update your url:

    let url = URL(string: 
  "https://api.github.com/user/starred/\(repoModel.ownerName)/\(repoModel.repoName)"
);
