## Code of Conduct

By participating and contributing to this project, you are expected to uphold our [Code of Conduct](https://github.com/openfga/.github/blob/main/CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md).

## Getting Started

### Making Changes

When contributing to a repository, the first step is to open an issue on [sdk-generator](https://github.com/openfga/sdk-generator) to discuss the change you wish to make before making them.

### Opening Issues

Before you submit a new issue please make sure to search all open and closed issues. It is possible your feature request/issue has already been answered.  Make sure to also check the [OpenFGA discussions](https://github.com/orgs/openfga/discussions).

That repo includes an issue template that will walk through all the places to check before submitting your issue here. Please follow the instructions there to make sure this is not a duplicate issue and that we have everything we need to research and reproduce this problem.

### Submitting Pull Requests

Considering that the SDKs are autogenerated, please make sure to submit your Pull Requests to the [sdk-generator](https://github.com/openfga/sdk-generator). We will not accept PRs to this repository because they will be overwritten on the next sdk generation.

## Getting in touch

### Have a question or problem?

Please do not open issues for general support or usage questions. Instead, join us over in the [OpenFGA discussions](https://github.com/orgs/openfga/discussions) or [support community](https://openfga.dev/community).

### Vulnerability Reporting

Please do not report security vulnerabilities on the public GitHub issue tracker. The [Responsible Disclosure Program](https://github.com/openfga/go-sdk/blob/main/.github/SECURITY.md) details the procedure for disclosing security issues.
