GitHub Actions is a very powerful and flexible tool in continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) workflows. It allows developers to automate build, test, and deployment processes. However, in some cases, we would like to be able to set some parameters dynamically each time we manually trigger a workflow, instead of modifying hard-coded values at each runtime. In this article, we’ll show how to do this with theworkflow_dispatch
event to accomplish this, thus making it possible to manually modify the command line parameters each time it is executed.
