Event type unsupported randomly triggered

See original GitHub issue

Our organization has been using GitHub actions heavily for about a month, we just ran into this a bit ago today during one of our release deployments of our platform.

##[error]Event Validation Error: The event type release is not supported. Only push, pull_request events are supported at this time.
##[warning]No scopes with read permission were found on the request.
##[error]Node run failed with exit code ***

This is from the actions/cache, is it possible you have seen this before or if this was recently changed? We have been using this for weeks without any issue until just about an hour ago, even earlier today it was fine.

@wipe2238 Apologies for the breaking change, I’ll get this fixed. For a workaround, you can add an if statement to check the event name and conditionally run the cache Example:

   - name: My Cache
      if: github.event_name == 'push' || github.event_name == 'pull_request'
      uses: actions/cache@v1
      with:
        path: .github
        key: ${{ runner.os }}-github

👋 Hey @smeijer, please see https://github.com/actions/cache/issues/208#issuecomment-596664572

There’s a known issue that re-runs of Pull Requests can’t read from the cache
