PUT /orgs/{org}/code-security/configurations/{configuration_id}/defaults
Sets a code security configuration as a default to be applied to new repositories in your organization.
This configuration will be applied to the matching repository type (all, none, public, private and internal) by default when they are created.
The authenticated user must be an administrator or security manager for the organization to use this endpoint. Setting an enterprise-enforced configuration as the default also requires permission to manage the enterprise's code security settings.
A default set with this endpoint is an organization default, even if the configuration is owned or enforced by the enterprise. An enterprise-enforced configuration set as an enterprise-level default for the same repository visibility takes precedence.
OAuth app tokens and classic PATs require the write:org scope; setting an enterprise-enforced configuration as the default also requires admin:enterprise. Fine-grained PATs and GitHub App access tokens cannot perform that action.
