Environment variables unavailable in inlineScript

[oliwheeler]

Currently, only the GITHUB_WORKSPACE environment variable is set.
The other default environment variables are not available.

Environment variables set by the user in the workflow YAML are also not available.

The documentation regarding create a Docker container action shows that the environment variables are passed to the container here

Expected behaviour:

• All default environment variables are available in inlineScript
• All user set environment variables are available in inlineScript

@jalajmsft - why is this closed? Expected behavior as posted by original user is still NOT resolved:

All user set environment variables are available in inlineScript

Yep, I need this behavior too because I want to reuse the commands and pass variables depending on environment (dev vs production). This is what I am using and it does not work.

    - name: "Azure CLI: upload assets to blob storage"
      uses: azure/CLI@v1
      env:
        STORAGE_ACCOUNT: "mystorageaccount"
        STORAGE_CONTAINER: "assets"
      with:
        inlineScript: |
          echo "doesn't work $STORAGE_ACCOUNT"
          echo "doesn't work either ${{ env.STORAGE_ACCOUNT }}"
          echo "so of course below fails"
          az storage blob upload-batch \
            --account-name ${{ env.STORAGE_ACCOUNT }} \
            --source ./public/assets \
            --destination ${{ env.STORAGE_CONTAINER }}

Um, no idea why @ing @jalajmsft unassigned them from issue… sorry 🤷‍♀️

Nevermind, this was fixed in v1.0.3 release, but the commits never referenced this issue

What's the proper way to use ENV variables in inlineScript?
