{% data variables.product.prodname_github_apps %} don't have any permissions by default. When you register a {% data variables.product.prodname_github_app %}, you can select permissions for the app. The permissions that you select determine what the app can do with {% data variables.product.company_short %}'s APIs and what webhooks the app can subscribe to. You should select the minimum permissions required for the app.

Although {% data variables.product.prodname_github_apps %} don't have any permissions by default, they do have implicit permissions to read public resources when acting on behalf of a user. When a user authorizes the app to act on their behalf, the {% data variables.product.prodname_github_app %} can use the resulting user access token to make requests to the REST API and the GraphQL API to read public resources. To learn more about acting on behalf of a user, see [AUTOTITLE](/apps/creating-github-apps/authenticating-with-a-github-app/authenticating-with-a-github-app-on-behalf-of-a-user).
