Describe the bug
When pushing a new tag with github.rest.git.createRef on a scheduled job, the tag is successfully created but other workflows that should be triggered by a new tag are not.
To Reproduce
I have a scheduled job like this:
on:
schedule:
- cron: "49 5 * * *"
jobs:
find_releases:
name: Find releases
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- uses: actions/github-script@v7
with:
script: |
// ...
const result_ref = await github.rest.git.createRef({
owner: context.repo.owner,
repo: context.repo.repo,
ref: "refs/tags/" + "v0.0.1",
sha: context.sha
})
And a build job like this:
on: push
jobs:
build_wheels:
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@v4
- <build step>
publish:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
if: github.event_name == 'push' && startsWith(github.event.ref, 'refs/tags/v')
steps:
- <publish step>
Expected behavior
I would expect the tag to be created on the schedule, after which a build and a corresponding publish is triggered.
Desktop (please complete the following information):
- OS: Github Workflow
- Version v7
The scheduled workflow run from this morning: https://github.com/RobertoRoos/protobuf-protoc-bin/actions/runs/11249037881/job/31275208574
All workflows for that version: https://github.com/RobertoRoos/protobuf-protoc-bin/tree/c737e636f6fbfc626cbcb207d77af7713db50bda/.github/workflows
