With this only we can have access to the features of the gem Repository Users can also create an issue with this gem but, usage will be limited to issue creation only To get the token goto Developer Settings > Personal Access token > Generate new token

options = { token: "above_mentioned", repo: "on_which_repo_you_want_issu", organization: "organization", exception_data: e, request: request}
client = RubyGitIssue.new(options)
client.issue_options = { title: "Exception[#{Rails.env}]": e.message, labels: ["BUG", "Enhancement"], assignees: ['github_repo_username_1', 'github_repo_username_2'] }

Generate issue on repo
