Hi,

I have a use case where I need to dynamically activate a Merge Queue with its associated Branc Protection Rule "Require Merge Queue" in the repo settings.

Unfortunately, this is not a BP rule that can be activated via GraphQL API like it is possible for others: CreateBranchProtectionRuleInput.

I would like to know if this will be supported or if there is another way.

Regards,

Also noticed that the get branch protection endpoint: https://docs.github.com/en/rest/branches/branch-protection?apiVersion=2022-11-28#get-branch-protection does not know the "Require Merge Queue" in its response.
