GitHub checks in combination with allowed-to-fail GitHub Action #27069
-
When using an allowed-to-fail GitHub Action and it does fail (who figured :slight_smile:) the GitHub check icon is a red cross. I’d have hoped that in case an allowed-to-fail Action (or Actions) is the only failing job we would get a different feedback (maybe a yellow-greenish half-check mark or something along these lines). |

👋 Hey @DeepSpace2, Could you describe your workflow and how you’re allowing an action to fail? With a step like:
The job itself still succeeds. Example: Create continue-on-error.yml · joshmgross/actions-testing@1b25d80 · GitHub |

Hi. This is my entire workflow
The problem is not that the workflow fails. The problem is that the icon is a red cross, which is a misleading indication. |

If you set
continue-on-error

that you expect to fail, the job itself should show as a success.
