Integrate Save App Token to Secrets in Slack
with Axolo

Save App Token to Secrets is a GitHub application designed to automate the process of saving or updating an app's installation token into the secrets of the current repository. This is particularly useful when the limitations of secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN are too restrictive, and a personal access token is not suitable. By using the app's installation token, users can impersonate a GitHub App and take advantage of the more appropriate automation solutions it offers.

The app is only intended for demonstration purposes and is deployed on Netlify. However, users can fork the source code and follow the tutorial to deploy their own app with custom permissions, bot name, avatar, and other specifications.

One of the main benefits of using Save App Token to Secrets is that it allows users to trigger a new workflow from another workflow, which is not possible with secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN. This makes it an ideal solution for organizations that require more advanced automation capabilities.

Overall, Save App Token to Secrets is a powerful tool for GitHub users looking to streamline their workflows and take advantage of the full range of automation solutions offered by GitHub Apps.
