TemplateURL with Nested Stacks is not updated

See original GitHub issue

I’m getting the following error TemplateURL must be an Amazon S3 URL. whenever I’m using a nested stack.

My root stack looks like this

AWSTemplateFormatVersion: '2010-09-09'
Description: 'Root stack template'
Resources:
  ObjectStorageStack:
    Type: AWS::CloudFormation::Stack
    Properties: 
      TemplateURL: 'object_storage_template.yml'

And nested stack is in file object_storage_template.yml

Resources:
    ObjectBucket:
      Type: AWS::S3::Bucket

I would expect that this deploy action performs packaging and therefore the TemplateURL gets updated.

Is this behavior supported by this action?

Correct. I realized that. So far my solution works in a way that I have to run aws cloudformation package command. Would be nice to have it as part of this action.

If this is not planned, feel free to close this issue.
