env:
  IS_PUSH: github.event_name == 'push'

jobs:
  ci:
    if: ${{ env.IS_PUSH }}

This returns an error: “Unrecognized named-value: ‘env’”

env:
  IS_PUSH: github.event_name == 'push'
jobs:

ci:

steps:

- if: ${{ env.IS_PUSH }}

uses: mathieudutour/github-tag-action@v5

This works.

According to the GitHub Docs:

A map of environment variables that are available to all jobs and steps in the workflow.

What am I missing ?
Also what is the object name for the workflow context and is it accessible i.e. workflow.env.variable ?
