Research direction

Start from the incorrect link described in issue #208 and trace where the GitHub API documentation URL is produced. Compare it with the requested enterprise-cloud team-sync endpoint URL, then verify that the link opens the specific “List IdP groups for a team (Legacy)” reference section rather than the top-level teams page.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

clicking on

teams.list_idp_groups_for_legacy(team_id): List IdP groups for a team (Legacy)

in docs seems to link to

https://docs.github.com/en/rest/teams?apiVersion=2026-03-10#list-idp-groups-for-a-team-legacy

This results in displaying the top level Section page for "Rest API Endpoints for teams" https://docs.github.com/en/rest/teams?apiVersion=2026-03-10

It should be linking to
https://docs.github.com/en/enterprise-cloud@latest/rest/teams/team-sync?apiVersion=2026-03-10#list-idp-groups-for-a-team-legacy
Which is the following:

  • The enterprise-cloud version of the api Documentation
  • The specific Endpoint documentation
