Hi, Thanks for the community support first of all.

I've this requirement for an application, I want to access an organization's data where user is added as a collaborator, so suppose if I'm added in an X repo, i would like to access my data to that repository like the commits or PRs I made. In my observation, with the oauth token flow, Github requests for the respective organization and it can only access its resources when the request is approved by the organization. But with a private access token, it just gives us the data without any approval. Our flow in the app do not have time to wait for the org approval, is there any way to deal with it? or is it fine if i just scrap that data, does github allows that ?
