packages
Deletes an entire package for a user. You cannot delete a public package if any version of the package has more than 5,000 downloads. In this scenario, contact GitHub support for further assistance.
To use this endpoint, you must authenticate using an access token with the read:packages
and delete:packages
scopes. In addition:
- If the
package_type
belongs to a GitHub Packages registry that only supports repository-scoped permissions, your token must also include therepo
scope. For the list of these registries, see "About permissions for GitHub Packages." - If the
package_type
belongs to a GitHub Packages registry that supports granular permissions, you must have admin permissions to the package you want to delete. For the list of these registries, see "About permissions for GitHub Packages."
