Back in 2025 GitHub App support was added and a blog post was published how to use it: https://fluxcd.io/blog/2025/04/flux-operator-github-app-bootstrap/

But the bootstrap guide is missing a section on how to utilize / configure GitHub App bootstrapping

Thanks for this PR!

I would omit mentions to --app-installation-id entirely now that --app-installation-owner is available and is much easier for users to find out. I would consider static installation ID a legacy feature after the introduction of lookup via owner.

@matheuscscp thanks for the quick review. I removed the section about the CLI and replaced all references of app-installation-id with app-installation-owner :)

Thanks! You missed removing step 10 from Register a GitHub App.

Also, we can replace --app-id with the new --app-client-id everywhere as well, looks like GitHub is now favoring client ID instead of app ID:

Yeah I was already thinking about app-id vs app-client-id but as its still in place after 2 years, I was like 🤷🏼 lets keep it for now as long as they support it but if you would like to only show the best way forward

LGTM! 🚀

Thanks @tuunit!
