The Webhook Update suddenly does not work
I can use manual sync in Admin tab to do the update. (although the changelog messsage is lost)
I changed the source link now it is back to normal.
I guess this is because the login requirement in github.com ?
Jason, could you please take a look?
I faced such issue once before.
Login required: (sometimes?)
Login NOT required:
I haven't changed anything here recently. I'll have to investigate.
Can you post the request data for the one that failed?
Some sensitive info are replaced to ******

For a GitHub push event, in order to find a matching script for the webhook request, it's looking at this data:
- repository.url:
https://api.github.com/repos/cyfung1031/userscript-supports - ref:
refs/heads/main - commits.modified:
473972.user.js
It takes this data and transforms it as follows:
- For the repository URL, it translates to two possibilities:
https://api.github.com/repos/cyfung1031/userscript-supports/raw/andhttps://raw.githubusercontent.com/repos/cyfung1031/. - For ref, it strips
refs/head, so it's justmain. - Filename remains the same.
It concatenates those three things, so it will be looking for scripts with a sync URL of either https://api.github.com/repos/cyfung1031/userscript-supports/raw/main/473972.user.js or https://raw.githubusercontent.com/repos/cyfung1031/main/473972.user.js. Now, testing this URLs out, neither of them work.
Your script has an actual sync URL of https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cyfung1031/userscript-supports/refs/heads/main/473972.user.js, which does work, and is the URL I get when browsing your report from GitHub.
I believe the thing that's changed here is that your repository.url is in the format https://api.github.com/repos/cyfung1031/userscript-supports, while I just ran a test webhook on my repo and it was in the format https://github.com/JasonBarnabe/webhooktest (and correctly matched my script). I could change the logic to instead look at respository.html_url, but I would like to understand why yours is acting differently than mine.

No response from the GitHub community, so I've gone ahead and made the change to look at repository.html_url. If you have further problems, let me know.
I checked that the response log in Github is 200, but the response body is different.
(Same script. no change of script namespace and script name)
2025-03-22 (normal. success)
2025-03-24 (200 response but failed)
