checks

Update a check run

Changed on Mar 14, 2024

Updates a check run for a specific commit in a repository.

Note: The endpoints to manage checks only look 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.

OAuth apps and personal access tokens (classic) cannot use this endpoint.
