Unable to get Allure artifacts from Allure Github action to the Deploy GH Website action

[darrenge]

Hey @delatrie

You have helped me a couple times on issues with Allure so maybe you can look at this issue to help us get over the finish line.

The intention is to have a large matrix of tests ran every night at 1:00am (nightly.yml). That nightly action would then auto fire off the deploy to website action (deploy-website.yml) to get it actually on the website.

I have the tests running and the allure-report artifact generated with the data and everything. I just can't get it onto the GH website. There are A LOT of tests, so I am avoiding copying the allure-report to a branch and would prefer to just take it from the GH Artifacts of the nightly run. I feel like I am just missing one little thing / configuration and if you took a quick look you could help. The step that fails is this one in the deploy action:

• name: Download Allure artifact
  if: ${{ github.event.workflow_run.name == 'Garnet Nightly Tests' }}
  uses: actions/download-artifact@v4
  with:
  name: allure-report
  path: allure_artifact

The repo: https://github.com/microsoft/garnet
Allure page: https://microsoft.github.io/garnet/allure/ (button on home page - getting 404 because deploy not working)
Nightly GitHub run that generates tests results and Allure Report artifact: https://github.com/microsoft/garnet/actions/workflows/nightly.yml
Deploy to GH page: https://github.com/microsoft/garnet/actions/workflows/deploy-website.yml

Thank you very much.

Hi, @darrenge

Accessing another run's artifacts requires run-id and github-token to be provided:

  - name: Download Allure artifact
    if: ${{ github.event.workflow_run.name == 'Garnet Nightly Tests' }}
    uses: actions/download-artifact@v4
    with:
      name: allure-report
      path: allure_artifact
+     run-id: ${{ github.event.workflow_run.id }}
+     github-token: ${{ github.token }}

Don't forget to add actions: read to the list of permissions.

Hope that helps.

I'm going to transfer this issue to the discussions as it isn't directly related to allure-csharp.

Wow ... if that is it, then that would be great! I will give it a try and let you know how it goes.

[darrenge]

Shoot ... just putting those lines in there didn't work. I will dive deeper and let you know what I find.

That's because workflow_run always runs against the default branch. The latest deploy-website run used this workflow definition: https://github.com/microsoft/garnet/actions/runs/21369593615/workflow. It's from the main branch:

While the fixed definition is still isolated in a separate branch. I guess you have to merge it first.

Update ... it is all working. https://microsoft.github.io/garnet/allure/

Thanks again for your help.
