The Checks API is currently available for developers to preview. During the preview period, the API may change without advance notice. Please see the blog post for full details. To access the API during the preview period, you must provide a custom media type in the Accept header:
application/vnd.github.antiope-preview+json
Warning: The API may change without advance notice during the preview period. Preview features are not supported for production use. If you experience any issues, contact GitHub support.
By default, check suites are automatically created when you create a check run. You only need to use this endpoint for manually creating check suites when you've disabled automatic creation using "Set preferences for check suites on a repository". Your GitHub App must have the checks:write permission to create check suites.
