## Recommended Permissions
In order to add labels to pull requests, the GitHub labeler action requires write permissions on the pull-request. However, when the action runs on a pull request from a forked repository, GitHub only grants read access tokens for `pull_request` events, at most. If you encounter an `Error: HttpError: Resource not accessible by integration`, it's likely due to these permission constraints. To resolve this issue, you can modify the `on:` section of your workflow to use
[`pull_request_target`](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/using-workflows/events-that-trigger-workflows#pull_request_target) instead of `pull_request` (see example [above](#create-workflow)). This change allows the action to have write access, because `pull_request_target` alters the [context of the action](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/using-workflows/events-that-trigger-workflows#pull_request_target) and safely grants additional permissions. Refer to the [GitHub token permissions documentation](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/security-guides/automatic-token-authentication#permissions-for-the-github_token) for more details about access levels and event contexts.

There exists a potentially dangerous misuse of the pull_request_target workflow trigger that may lead to malicious PR authors (i.e. attackers) being able to obtain repository write permissions or stealing repository secrets, Hence it is advisible that pull_request_target should only be used in workflows that are carefully designed to avoid executing untrusted code and to also ensure that workflows using pull_request_target limit access to sensitive resources. Refer to the [GitHub token permissions documentation](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/security-guides/automatic-token-authentication#permissions-for-the-github_token) for more details about access levels and event contexts.
