I've noticed that my GitHub Actions workflow sometimes fails without clear error messages. How can I debug and identify the cause of these workflow failures?

If your GitHub Actions workflow fails without clear error messages, here's a short answer to help you troubleshoot:

• Check Logs:
  Go to the "Actions" tab, select the failed workflow, and review the logs for error messages or step failures.
• Enable Debug Logging:
  Add ACTIONS_RUNNER_DEBUG=true and ACTIONS_STEP_DEBUG=true to your workflow's environment variables for detailed logs.
• Look at Recent Changes:
  If you've made recent changes, they could be causing the issue. Try reverting or re-testing those changes.
• Retry the Workflow:
  Sometimes, workflows fail due to temporary issues. Try running the workflow again to see if it resolves the problem.

We made the decision to disable the ability to earn Achievements in our Community in order to discourage users from participating in coordinated or inauthentic activity like rapid questions and answers in order to earn badges. You can learn more about this decision in our announcement post here Achievements will no longer be available in the Community.

Note that GitHub's Acceptable Use Policies prohibits coordinated or inauthentic activity like rapid questions and answers. As a result, we'll be locking this post.
