Hello there!
Does someone know what 683317892 is for this authentik github package link : https://github.com/goauthentik/authentik/pkgs/container/server/**683317892**?tag=2025.10
What is it, and how can i get it with a script ?
For dockerhub there is not number like that, only a /tags/, so how i can do similar thing with github ?
I want to get this page and not the docker pull url, to return the link in a workflow which build and push a docker image

Thanks

the 683317892 in https://github.com/goauthentik/authentik/pkgs/container/server/**683317892**?tag=2025.10 is a GitHub internal package version ID. You can think of it like an internal identifier GitHub generates for the package metadata record in its Packages system and it’s only displayed in the GitHub Packages UI Hence, that internal ID is not part of the Docker image pull reference.

to pull the image you would use docker pull ghcr.io/goauthentik/authentik-server:2025.10.

but for what I think you are trying to do will go something like

curl \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $GITHUB_TOKEN" \
  -H "Accept: application/vnd.github+json" \
  https://api.github.com/orgs/goauthentik/packages/container/server/versions

this will result in a JSON with internal ID (id) , tag name(s) (metadata.container.tags) , timestamps and more.

GitHub doesn’t expose a straightforward Docker Registry API to list numeric UI IDs because that number doesn’t matter for pulling images.

:D

683317892 is the GitHub package version ID for that container image. GitHub Packages assigns an internal numeric ID to each version.

What it is:
It’s not a tag or digest. It’s an internal package version identifier GitHub uses in URLs for container registry UI pages.

How to get it in a script:
Use the GitHub API to list package versions and extract the ID.

Example (bash + jq):

TOKEN=ghp_…
OWNER=goauthentik
REPO=authentik
PACKAGE_ID=$(curl -s
-H "Accept: application/vnd.github+json"
-H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN"
https://api.github.com/orgs/$OWNER/packages/container/server/versions
| jq -r '.[] | select(.metadata.container.tags[]=="2025.10") .id')

echo $PACKAGE_ID

This returns 683317892 for tag 2025.10.

Why DockerHub is different:
Docker Hub uses /tags/list; GitHub Packages uses its API with package version objects and numeric IDs.

In a workflow:
Get the version ID via API and then construct the URL:

https://github.com/$OWNER/$REPO/pkgs/container/server/$PACKAGE_ID?tag=2025.10

If you want the page URL only, you don’t need to pull the image—just output the constructed link.
