Question

Can't setup with 2fa (instead, g:gist_token allow me to complete setup :))

My Vim said below after I installed vim-gist then did :Gist.

Gist.vim requires authorization to use the GitHub API. These settings are stored in "~/.gist-vim". If you want to revoke, do "rm ~/.gist-vim".
GitHub Password for aiya000: <input here with my an access token>

Gist.vim requires authorization to use the GitHub API. These settings are stored in "~/.gist-vim". If you want to revoke, do "rm ~/.gist-vim".
Not Found

I'm using 2fa.
Maybe, it is factor of this.

Instead, my setup is completed with setting g:gist_token 🎉

First, I reported, but alright, I don't want to hurry up to resolve this issue :3

Just I reported for the way to complete setup :)

Thanks!

Thank you, this resolved my issue. Great plugin otherwise.

Answer 2 · 2021-02-21T18:13:22.000Z

Additional info: I am not using 2FA in Github, but I did have to pass it the token manually. It would not accept my password, and gave me "Not Found"

Answer 3 · 2021-03-30T09:06:38.000Z

Same for me

Answer 4 · 2021-03-30T09:24:22.000Z

First authentication of 2FA is deprecated on GitHub. You need to set below into your ~/.gist-vim

token XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Thanks, that worked for me

Answer 6 · 2021-06-06T02:04:12.000Z

I am not using 2fa,and also had set 'toekn xxxxxxxxxxxx' in ~/.gist-vim.but it still gave me "post faild..."

Answer 7 · 2021-06-06T03:17:26.000Z

token not toekn.

Answer 8 · 2021-06-06T03:19:08.000Z

please check permissions of the token.

Answer 9 · 2021-07-17T19:37:39.000Z

I have 2FA set and I had to add the following in ~/.gist-vim:

user jarun    
token XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Answer 10 · 2022-02-04T10:32:22.000Z

I did a fresh install with Vundle and nothing, the same problem:

Gist never ask me for my credentials or run any process for authentication
Never Gist stored nothing in .gist-vim

The provisional only solution:

run Vim
let g:gist_token = 'ghp_mDsdadxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
Gist -l

Answer 11 · 2022-02-05T12:58:36.000Z

No. You NEED to store token XXXXXX manually into your .gist-vim

Answer 12 · 2022-02-05T12:59:29.000Z

@jarun Do not add user line.

Answer 13 · 2022-02-05T13:00:39.000Z

I close this issue since most of problems you met are simply mistaking to setup .gist-vim

Answer 14 · 2022-02-05T14:02:27.000Z

No. You NEED to store token XXXXXX manually into your .gist-vim

sorry, but manually it doesn't works too. I tried everything, the only thing that works is this that I mentioned.

Answer 15 · 2022-02-05T14:25:31.000Z

Did you check that the token has Gist privileges correctly?

Answer 16 · 2022-02-05T20:44:03.000Z

well, the token only have one permission in the Github token settings, gist, and with it works fine but only when I doing manually like this:

let g:gist_token = 'ghp_mDsdadxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'

and the permissions of .gist-vim on my home directory is 644, I need more?
