Receive a GitHub secret scanning report
POST
https://forumulate.com/api /secret-scanning/github GitHub’s secret scanning partner endpoint. The body is an array of {token, type, url, source} matches for cfd_ (delivery) and cfv_ (preview) keys, signed with GitHub’s published key (Github-Public-Key-Identifier, Github-Public-Key-Signature). A live preview key is revoked at once and a delivery key after 24 hours; the org’s admins are notified. Publishable cfp_ keys are public by design and never registered. Answers GitHub’s token-feedback array.
Parameters
github-public-key-identifierstringheadergithub-public-key-signaturestringheaderforumulate-versionstringheaderAPI version negotiation. Send
forumulate-version: 2026-12-01 on every request from a new integration; it is optional only so that integrations written before versioning keep working. Each version includes everything before it:Idempotency-KeystringheaderMakes this write safe to retry. Optional — send any unique string (a UUID is ideal) and the first request runs while its response is remembered under that key for 24 hours; an identical retry replays that same status and body instead of acting twice, so a timeout or a 5xx from the edge can be retried without creating a second row. A retry sent while the first request is still in flight is refused with
409. The key is scoped to the method and path, so the same key on a different endpoint is a different request. Error responses of 5xx are never cached — those retries re-run. A key is bound to the BODY it was first used with: reusing it with a different body is a 409 idempotency.key_reused, not a replay, because replaying would tell you a write landed that never ran. Generate one key per request, never per process or per session.Request body application/json
