Hi @clinicarehn

Ah you mean release? Github release uses tags for versioning.

You can read more on the official docs:

• Releasing Projects on Github
• Git Tagging
• Github REST API Release

I got this but it is not working

$githubToken = 'ghp_######';
$repoOwner = '#####';
$repoName = '#####';

$apiUrl = "https://api.github.com/repos/$repoOwner/$repoName/releases/latest";

$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $apiUrl);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, ["Authorization: token $githubToken"]);
$response = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);

$data = json_decode($response, true);

if (isset($data['tag_name'])) {
    echo $data['tag_name'];
}
