# Pinning saved views to the repository issues sidebar is generally available and more

**[GitHub Changelog](https://daily.dev/sources/github_updates)** · 1 min read · 2 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

GitHub has made pinning saved views to the repository issues sidebar generally available, letting users keep frequently used views one click away even when the sidebar is collapsed. Additional updates include profile avatars for issue reactions, adjustable Issues Dashboard density for viewing more issues at once, and updated issue dependency REST API endpoints (blocked_by, blocking, relates_to) that now filter results based on the token's granted scope.

## Questions this post answers

### Can I pin saved views to the GitHub repository issues sidebar now?

Yes, pinning saved views to the repository issues sidebar is generally available. Pinned views stay one click away even when the sidebar is collapsed, making frequently used filtered views faster to access without re-navigating the issues dashboard each time.

_daily.dev helps developers keep up with GitHub workflow changes like this one as they ship._

### Does the GitHub issue dependency REST API respect token scopes?

Yes, the issue dependency REST API endpoints (blocked_by, blocking, and relates_to) now filter results based on the token's granted scope, meaning a token only sees dependency data it has permission to access rather than returning unfiltered results.

_Track GitHub API behavior changes like this on daily.dev before they break your integrations._
