GitHub — common questions
Answered from what our own scheduled checks found, not from the provider's marketing.
Is GitHub free to use?
GitHub is listed in our free catalogue, but it requires OAuth, so you will need to register before your first call. Providers frequently reserve higher limits and commercial use for paid plans.
Does GitHub need an API key?
GitHub uses OAuth rather than a simple key, so you register an application and complete an authorisation flow before making calls. That is more setup than a key, and it is why OAuth APIs are harder to try quickly.
Can I call GitHub from browser JavaScript?
Yes. GitHub returned CORS headers when we checked it, so a browser will let your page read the response. You can fetch it directly from client-side JavaScript with no proxy and no backend.
Is GitHub still working?
Yes, as of 2026-09-18. Our automated check reached GitHub and recorded a 100% reliability score with a median response time of 1321 ms. We re-check on a schedule, and this page updates with the result.
Is GitHub available over HTTPS?
Yes. GitHub serves over HTTPS, so you can call it from a secure page without triggering a mixed-content block.
