Current situation: FME Flow’s Git integration relies on broad‑scope personal access tokens, which many security policies prohibit.
Why fine‑grained: Fine‑grained PATs were created to align access with what really matters—specific repositories, operations, and lifetimes—enforcing least‑privilege and reducing risk. This will make it easier to implement version control because current organizations like ours don’t allow broad scope.
Request: Add native support for GitHub fine‑grained PATs in FME Flow version control so teams can adopt it while meeting modern security policies.

Hi ​@jkr_wrk , this isn't currently on our roadmap, but it's a reasonable ask. Fine-grained PATs are GitHub's recommended token type, and we understand the least-privilege need.

Are you on GitHub.com or Enterprise Server? And does your security policy require token approval or a maximum token lifetime we'd need to accommodate?

Thanks for posting the idea—upvotes and use cases shared here help us prioritize.
