For GitHub this returns the App install URL carrying a signed, short-lived state token that binds the install back to the authenticated caller. The caller redirects the user there; GitHub completes the install with a callback to a route this contract does not publish, since it is invoked by GitHub’s own installation flow rather than by your client. An unsupported provider is rejected with 422, naming the supported providers.

Authorization

This route requires the write scope. A missing or invalid credential returns 401 authentication_error. A valid credential without the scope returns 403 permission_denied, and the problem body names the exact scope required.

Headers

These are request conventions the contract does not declare as parameters, so they do not appear in the schema tables below.

Header	Applies	What it does
`X-Exo-API-Key`	Required	Your Exo API key, `exo_<env>_<token>`. `Authorization: Bearer exo_...` is accepted as an alternate.
`X-Exo-Subject`	Not applicable	This route is not subject-scoped.
`Idempotency-Key`	Not honoured	This route does not replay: the returned install URL carries a short-lived state token.
`X-Request-Id`	Response	Returned on every response, including `204`s. Quote it in a support request.

Success responses

Status	Meaning
`200`	Successful Response

Errors

Status	Code	When
`400`	`invalid_request`	Malformed request, for example an invalid cursor.
`401`	`authentication_error`	Missing or invalid credentials.
`403`	`permission_denied`	Missing scope, or an unprovisioned subject selector.
`404`	`not_found`	The resource does not exist, or is not visible to this caller.
`409`	`conflict`	A conflict with the current state of the resource.
`422`	`validation_error`	The request was understood but failed field validation.
`429`	`rate_limit_exceeded`	Rate limit exceeded. Retry after the Retry-After interval.
`503`	`service_degraded`	A dependency is temporarily unavailable. Safe to retry.

Every error is an RFC 9457 application/problem+json body carrying a stable code, a requestId, and a suggestedAction where Exo has one. See Errors.

Notes

This returns a URL to send the user to. The install is finalized by the provider’s callback, not by this call.

Authorizations

X-Exo-API-Key

string

header

required

An Exo API key (exo_...) sent as the X-Exo-API-Key header.

Path Parameters

connector

string

required

The connector provider to connect. Supported in v1: github.

Response

Successful Response

POST /v1/connectors/{provider}: the URL to send the user to.

For GitHub this is the App install URL carrying a signed state token that binds the install back to the caller's user and org.
