GH_AppInstallation

A GitHub App installed on the organization with specific permissions and repository access

Represents a GitHub App installed on an organization. App installations have specific permissions and can be scoped to all repositories or a selection of repositories. The permissions granted to the app are captured as a JSON string in the properties.

Each installation is linked to its parent GH_App via a GH_InstalledAs edge. For installations with repository_selection set to all, GH_CanAccess edges are created to every repository in the organization. For installations with repository_selection set to selected, repository-level edges cannot be enumerated with a PAT (requires app installation token authentication).
