when trying to connect my github app to gain access to the repo its showing this error: Error 401 User (role: guests) missing scope (vcs.read)

general_unauthorized_scope

repos are private.

TL;DR
Developers are facing an error (vcs.read) when trying to connect their Github app, showing Error 401 with a message about missing scope (vcs.read). Ensure project id and appwrite url are properly set in the project to resolve this issue.

Sounds similar to an issue I had. Have you set the project id and appwrite url in your project?
