GitHub permissions not approved

github_permissions_pending

This GitHub organization hasn't approved ComputeSphere's updated permissions yet.

What this means​

ComputeSphere's GitHub App now reads an organization's members, to confirm that the person connecting it is an owner. No owner of this organization has approved that yet.

How to fix it​

Ask an owner of the organization to approve the updated permissions in its GitHub settings, under GitHub Apps, then connect again.

Retry behavior​

Retry after an owner has approved the updated permissions.

How it appears in the response​

ComputeSphere returns errors as RFC 7807 Problem Details. The type field is the docs URL for this page — switch on code in your client.
