[Github] `Error while checking for inaccessible repositories. Exception: 403` when trying to sync `private` repositories about connectors

@spong can you give it a try again? If it does not work, can we pair to investigate it together?

Just pulled the latest from elastic/connectors, then followed these instructions creating a new github connector within Kibana, updating the config.yml, then running make install/make run and I'm seeing the same error/issue:

After that error, if I go and update the List of repositories configuration from security-team to *, and then manually add the repo filter as detailed in the description, it syncs without issue:

Let me know if you need any more details or feel free to reach out on slack if you'd like to pair -- happy to help however I can 🙂

We are able to index documents from a private repository by specifying the repo in the list of repositories. However, we receive a forbidden error only when the rate limit is exceeded, it applies to both private and public repositories.

@spong does this work for you? If yes, can we close this issue? Also, the PR is merged to main so you can give it a try there as well, meantime we're raising a backport PR.

Sorry @moxarth-elastic, I've been in-and-out on PTO and had been focused on some release items before then so didn't have a chance to confirm/repro. Just catching up on a few things now, but will test and confirm all is good here shortly 👍
