FAQ

• Why do I get the error 'Resource not accessible by integration'?

  This will happen if you use secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN.

  You need to create a personal access token instead.

  Go to your Github settings, select 'Developer settings' --> 'Personal access tokens' --> 'Tokens (classic)' and create a new token. Store its value in a secret, for example MY_TOKEN.

  Then refer to it like this:

  token: ${{ secrets.MY_TOKEN }}
