GitHub REST API
GET /assignments/* endpoint removal
Stopped workingSubscribe to GitHub REST APIShare
On August 28, 2026, GitHub removed the GET /assignments/* endpoints from the REST API. Calls to these paths fail since that date, as the operations are no longer available. Any requests made to them are no longer answered by the service.
Calls it hits
GET /assignments/*
What to use instead of these calls
There is no direct replacement API because GitHub Classroom is retired in favor of partner solutions, and the endpoints return 410 Gone. Moving to a partner education platform requires a product decision rather than a simple endpoint change.
GitHub Classroom has no replacement API: moving to a partner education platform is a product decision.
In GitHub REST API's words
This operation is no longer available as of August 28, 2026.
