Require status checks to pass before merging - In the search field, I could not find the CodeQL workflow action

Body

I created a branch production rule for "main" in GitHub to enable the checkbox against "Require status checks to pass before merging - Require branches to be up to date before merging."
In the search field, I could not find the CodeQL workflow action.

In CodeQL Action, I have triggered push and pull requests configured for the "main" branch.

What could be the reason? Please help

Hi @vcpsuthakar

Thanks for your question. The CodeQL workflow needs to have run recently on the repository before it's picked up. Is this the case?

[vcpsuthakar]

Yes, it ran frequently. I recreated the CodeQL Workflow and checked, but no luck.

Thanks for your answer. Would it be possible to share a link to the repository, so we can have a look. It's a bit difficult to proceed without further details.

[vcpsuthakar]

Understood. But this error is occurring on my organization's GitHub (on-prem) repo.
Actually, this issue occurs only in two repos; the other repos working as expected.

In that case it might be better to use the official support channels: https://docs.github.com/en/support/contacting-github-support/creating-a-support-ticket

Ok. Thank you so much
