I'm just wondering if there is any update on this? :) |
Unfortunately, no-- env can still not be used. However, I have found that I can use either of the following:

I'm new to GitHub, hence GitHub workflows. But this is the exactly the first issue I have with workflow. I'd image this is causing troubles for many of us. |
@leonardchu, give the first post a thumbs up. Github says that they monitor that. Other than that I'm not sure. |

Publish to pypi only once in github actions Notes: * Github Actions does not support env in job strategy: actions/runner#480 (comment) * Trigger the workflow on push or pull request, but only for the master branch, see https://docs.github.com/en/actions/reference/workflow-syntax-for-github-actions#example-using-multiple-events-with-activity-types-or-configuration

This is quite the dealbreaker for a dynamic workflow :-S I hope this can be resolved asap. @shlomif looks promising, but I can't quite figure out what you're doing there. Could you provide a bit more context? |
Maybe |
* Make Flutter Build workflow reusable * provide artifact name via input variable (with default value) * Automatically add build artifacts to github release * workaround for actions/runner#480
apparently `env` isn't supported in `with:` statements. see actions/runner#480

We're also having issues with shared workflows because of the runs-on limits. |
#2565 might be a different issue that is related to this one. Are expressions used in Jobs evaluated after the ones declared in Workflows ? If not, then it is another #2565 is another issue. |

Describe the bug
When using workflow level environment variables they do not work when I use them to substitute for
jobs.build.name
orjobs.build.runs-on
. See workflow file below for example:To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
1.- Run the workflow file above to receive the following error:
The workflow is not valid. .github/workflows/dev.yml (Line: 15, Col: 11): Unrecognized named-value: 'env'. Located at position 1 within expression: env.aws_account,.github/workflows/dev.yml (Line: 16, Col: 14): Unrecognized named-value: 'env'. Located at position 1 within expression: env.aws_account
Expected behavior
The expected behavior is that using the workflow file above the
build.name
would beDeploy|cfaittoolsnp
and thebuild.runs-on
would becfaittoolsnp
.Runner Version and Platform
