GitHub imposes a rate limmit on unauthenticated users for API access of 60 requests/hr. the usage of the API varies per scan, but is roughly the same as the amount of public repos the target maintains. If 60 requests is not going to be enough, you can authenticated using a Personal Acess Token (PAT) and unlock up to 5000 requests an hour. How do I get one?
