I am trying to create a GitHub App that would allow any user to query all of their project boards (non-classic boards). When I created the GitHub App, I went to the "Permissions" tab (as outlined here) and added that I want to request read & write access for project boards. My understanding is that when a user authorizes access to the app, they would be authorizing access to their project boards because of this. However, after inspecting the authorities of the token generated from authorizing the app, it only has authorities [ROLE_USER, SCOPE_read:user]
, no project read or write role. Am I missing something here/does GitHub prevent GitHub Apps from accessing a user's non-classic boards?

I have also tried to hit this endpoint: (https://docs.github.com/en/issues/planning-and-tracking-with-projects/automating-your-project/using-the-api-to-manage-projects#finding-the-node-id-of-a-user-project) on a variety of public projects from my own account using the token generated from this app & get no results (returns null) - despite having non-classic projects. – Khalid Hussain Feb 08 '23 at 04:25
