Dependabot API no longer returning all alerts

Bug

Body

As of today, the List Dependabot alerts for a repository API is no longer returning all alerts.

The web UI confirms that the alerts are still there, just not showing up in the API response. For example, one of our repos has 185 alerts, but just 6 are returned by the API now.

Everything was fine yesterday morning. Has the API changed in the last day or so?

I am running into this same issue. Just started today after the endpoint worked perfectly for me yesterday.

Same problem here, the GraphQL API is still delivering the correct results though. Hope this helps!

Just came here to report the same issue. It broke on March 26 at some point. I have a nightly job, and it started returning incorrect counts sometime after 1 AM ET on March 26.

Same here, first time querying this API and was stuck for one hour to understand why it doesn't return all alerts 😅

Same here. I am pulling alerts from a Github org into Azure Data Factory for visualisation in a dashboard and alerts shown on the dashboard is only a fraction of what it displayed before 26 March. The number show on the dependabot UI didn't show any abnormal difference.

This affects also the List Dependabot alerts for an organization api

Looks like it's back and fixed 👏 Got the full issues from API call again

It's working for me as well. The GraphQL and REST APIs are returning values consistent with each other and the web UI again.
