PATCH /repos/{owner}/{repo}/secret-scanning/alerts/{alert_number}
Updates the status of a secret scanning alert in an eligible repository.
You can also use this endpoint to assign or unassign an alert to a user who has write access to the repository.
The authenticated user must be an administrator for the repository or for the organization that owns the repository to use this endpoint.
OAuth app tokens and personal access tokens (classic) need the repo or security_events scope to use this endpoint. If this endpoint is only used with public repositories, the token can use the public_repo scope instead.
