Maybe somebody knows what is wrong

Thank you.

We had both project and repo scopes, but were still getting the Cannot read properties of null (reading 'id') error.

However, I realized it was because our bot user had not been added to the project 😞

It’s working now.

Why does this project need admin:org permission? That is not documented in the readme.

It should not anymore.

Prior to the projects scoped tokens it was required. The deprecated projectsNext graphql queries required it.

Since the projectsV2 queries replaced it, and tokens with project scope were made available, this is no longer necessary
