how to add AddCollaborator by email address?

[yuseferi]

I'm looking for a way to add collaborators by email address.

I checked AddCollaborator only support username,

opt := &github.RepositoryAddCollaboratorOptions{Permission: "push"}
collaboratorInvitation, _, err := client.Repositories.AddCollaborator(ctx, orgName, name, "GITHUB_USERNAME", opt)
	

is there any method to get username by email address or add AddCollaborator by email addrress?

Thanks,

Going back to the official GitHub v3 API documentation: https://docs.github.com/en/rest/reference/collaborators#add-a-repository-collaborator and searching for "email", it looks like this is not possible via the API, and therefore this repo (which is just a Go client for the API) will not be able to do that. Sorry.

Not that I know of. You probably will want to contact GitHub Tech Support to get an answer to this question. Feel free to report back here what you find out from them.
