Somewhat related to this, you could use the GitHub Authentication Provider to automatically allow folks to log in to GitHub when making API calls.

The VS Code GitHub auth provider, can give rest-book the GitHub access token used for making those requests.

Are you thinking to use this for making GitHub API calls?

[TylerLeonhardt]

Yep! Exactly. Just to streamline making GitHub API calls.

Theoretically we can do it for Microsoft APIs but that'll be less useful given the limitations in the Microsoft Auth Provider (which I can chat with you about if you're interested).

Personally, I think starting with a button somewhere to "login in to GitHub" would be a decent start.

Also happy to show you the GitHub Auth Provider API if need be!

thanks Tyler! I'll take you up on that in just a bit!
