Background information: I have a small java application (using quarkus/gradle) that simply provides REST API from other services' yaml file. Currently, the yaml files are copied to this repository manually which needs to be automated.

Therefore, I need to access a github repository where the original yaml files exists and copy those yaml files from there into my own repository.

This is what I found out from my research here, but this didn't really help to solve my problem: How to connect to github using Java Program

Anyone idea how this is realizeable/ How the access to another repository can be enabled using github token?

Thanks in advance!

You need to explain in much more detail what you want to do. Please read [ask]. – tgdavies May 23 '22 at 12:06
thank you for the hint, I just edited my question, is it now better? – watermelone May 23 '22 at 13:24
The library mentioned in the answer you linked to seemed like a good start. How far did you get and where are you stuck? – tgdavies May 23 '22 at 22:48
I couldn't find the gradle dependency for this githubrepository... – watermelone May 24 '22 at 07:08
