🏦 Configure metrics for organizations

While metrics targets mainly user accounts, it's possible to render metrics for organization accounts.

*️⃣ Using metrics on organization

Setup is the same as for user accounts, and a personal access token from an user account is required excepted that read:org scope must be enabled, whether you are member of the target organization or not.

user option will need to be set to organization name instead.

Example: render metrics for github organization

- uses: lowlighter/metrics@latest
  with:
    token: ${{ secrets.METRICS_TOKEN }}
    user: github

💡 If your organization using single sign-on, you may need to authorize your personal token access

💡 Plugins supporting organizations account are labeled with 👥 Organizations. Note that rendering consume way more API requests and huge organization may not actually be able to use a given plugin.

💡 To support private repositories, add repo scope

*️⃣ Organizations memberships for user accounts

By default, GitHub only display public memberships. Membership visibility canbe managed in the People tab of your organization.

⚠️ Seeing your organization membership in your profile does not mean that it is visible from other users! You can check this by viewing your profile in an private browser window.
