Create a check suite

Note: The Checks API only looks for pushes in the repository where the check suite or check run were created. Pushes to a branch in a forked repository are not detected and return an empty pull_requests array and a null value for head_branch.

By default, check suites are automatically created when you create a check run. You only need to use this endpoint for manually creating check suites when you've disabled automatic creation using "Update repository preferences for check suites". Your GitHub App must have the checks:write permission to create check suites.

Project maintainers have the right and responsibility to remove, edit, or reject comments, commits, code, wiki edits, issues, and other contributions that are not aligned to this Code of Conduct, or to ban temporarily or permanently any contributor for other behaviors that they deem inappropriate, threatening, offensive, or harmful. ## Scope This Code of Conduct applies both within project spaces and in public spaces when an individual is representing the project or its community. Examples of representing a project or community include using an official project e-mail address, posting via an official social media account, or acting as an appointed representative at an online or offline event. Representation of a project may be further defined and clarified by project maintainers. ## Enforcement Instances of abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior may be reported by contacting the project team at [EMAIL]. The project team will review and investigate all complaints, and will respond in a way that it deems appropriate to the circumstances. The project team is obligated to maintain confidentiality with regard to the reporter of an incident. Further details of specific enforcement policies may be posted separately. Project maintainers who do not follow or enforce the Code of Conduct in good faith may face temporary or permanent repercussions as determined by other members of the project's leadership. ## Attribution This Code of Conduct is adapted from the [Contributor Covenant][homepage], version 1.4, available at [http://contributor-covenant.org/version/1/4][version] [homepage]: http://contributor-covenant.org [version]: http://contributor-covenant.org/version/1/4/ html_url: type: string format: uri nullable: true license: type: object properties: key: type: string name: type: string spdx_id: type: string url: type: string node_id: type: string forks: type: integer example: 0 open_issues: type: integer example: 0 watchers: type: integer example: 0 allow_forking: type: boolean web_commit_signoff_required: type: boolean example: false security_and_analysis: type: object properties: advanced_security: type: object properties: status: type: string enum: - enabled - disabled secret_scanning: type: object properties: status: type: string enum: - enabled - disabled secret_scanning_push_protection: type: object properties: status: type: string enum: - enabled - disabled created_at: type: string format: date-time nullable: true updated_at: type: string format: date-time nullable: true head_commit: type: object title: Simple Commit properties: id: type: string tree_id: type: string message: type: string timestamp: type: string format: date-time author: type: object properties: name: type: string email: type: string committer: type: object properties: name: type: string email: type: string latest_check_runs_count: type: integer check_runs_url: type: string rerequestable: type: boolean runs_rerequestable: type: boolean
