I have found the following previous requests and subscribed.
Also, I learned that GitHub GraphQL API has the ability to change the pull-request status with the next functions. I will investigate those. |
Close #436 ## Overview My proposal about a REST API to toggle pull-request draft status ([pulls.update: Change pull-request draft status · Issue #69 · octokit/rest.js](octokit/rest.js#69)) has been rejected since the GitHub API v4 (GraphQL API) has the ability to do that. Unfortunately, an auto-generated access token called `GITHUB_TOKEN` seems not to have full control permission of the GraphQL API. We got the error `Resource not accessible by integration` with the GitHub API v4 and `GITHUB_TOKEN`. This problem may be related to the following thread. - [API v4 - Unable to Retrieve Email - Resource not accessible by integration - GitHub Ecosystem - GitHub Support Community](https://github.community/t/api-v4-unable-to-retrieve-email-resource-not-accessible-by-integration/13831/3) This pull-request uses a personal access token with a `public_repo` scope (for a public repository) as a workaround. ## References - [convertPullRequestToDraft - Mutations - GitHub Docs](https://docs.github.com/en/graphql/reference/mutations#convertpullrequesttodraft) - [markPullRequestReadyForReview - Mutations - GitHub Docs](https://docs.github.com/en/graphql/reference/mutations#markpullrequestreadyforreview) - https://github.com/actions/toolkit/blob/%40actions/tool-cache%401.1.1/packages/github/README.md?plain=1#L32 - [octokit/graphql.js: GitHub GraphQL API client for browsers and Node](https://github.com/octokit/graphql.js) - [octokit/graphql-schema: GitHub’s GraphQL Schema with validation.

Describe the solution you'd like
There should be additional actions to turn a PR into a Draft or turn a Draft into a PR.
Perhaps the
openaction could be re-used here to do draft -> PR?Describe alternatives you've considered
Doing it manually... obviously.
Additional context
We have a specific setup for PRs in a repository, where a PR is a draft until it's ready for review and merge in which case it will receive a
Status: Readylabel, where the comment action comments about this change.Having a way to directly change the PRs draft-status on (un)label would allow us to remove one extra step (Lazyness for the win!)
