Failing to deploy from Github Actions

Questions / Help Build debugging
1

I wrote a simple Github Actions workflow to deploy to fly.io:

jobs:
  deploy:
    name: Deploy to fly.io
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v3
      - uses: superfly/flyctl-actions/setup-flyctl@master
      - run: flyctl deploy --remote-only -c deploy/fly.staging.toml
        env:
          FLY_API_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.FLY_API_TOKEN }}

The workflow run consistently fails with the following error message:

Error failed to fetch an image or build from source: error rendering push status stream: unauthorized: not allowed

Deploying locally with the same command (even the same API key) works just fine. What could be the issue here?

2

What happens before that log line? Is the app = "<name>" in fly.staging.toml correct? That error looks like what happens when it tries to push to a non existent app repository.

Yes the name is correct, I also use the same fly.staging.toml for local deployment and it works fine there. Here are some more log lines before the failure:

Update: I re-issued a new API token and set it in Github Action secrets. It works now! I might have accidentally pasted a trailing newline or so when I entered the API token the last time.

Thanks for your support.
