Details
Teams building Vercel for Platforms can now create deployments directly from users' GitHub repositories without requiring users to install a separate Vercel GitHub App.
When creating a deployment, passing gitAccessToken along with gitSource via the API allows Vercel to use that token to fetch the source and build the deployment.
The token must meet the following conditions:
- Read-only permissions and restricted to specific repositories
- Validity period of 24 hours or less
Vercel encrypts and temporarily stores the token for source extraction, and never stores the token in deployment data.
