release version download

[thploeg]

Hi! I am kinda new in github actions. I used the release-downloader and get the latest version. The problem and error appearing is: Eroor: there are no assets found.
The problem is, there are assets. Is there a solution for this?

with version 1.8, it works.

Many thanks:)

As you mentioned, "If you want to download only the latest release on your own trigger, you have to use version 1.8." Is there any documentation you could refer me to where I could find out this information, or can I investigate whether there is a problem with version 1.9? I wanted to download only the most recent release, and version 1.8 worked well for me.

I've found out myself that version 1.8 is compatible to get the assets you need, the 1.9 version is a problem, I know where the problem is and wanted to solve it with pull request, but I've time too short.
If I make the documentation and solved the problem, I will let you know.

Can I ask you, what trigger do you want to use?
I recommend, use version tags to trace those releases.

This what i am using .

name: Dummy Release
uses: robinraju/release-downloader@v1.9
with:
tag: ${{ xyx 'latest' }} # If tag is not provided, default to 'latest'
fileName: "*.zip"
token: ${{ xyx }}
latest: true # Always set to true to download the latest release if tag is not provided or is invalid
tarBall: true
zipBall: true

My aim is to remove the below warning. I was using my previous workflow version v.7. Then, I used version v.8 With both versions, I was receiving the below warning, which I removed(used with v.9 version) . However, when I used version v.9, I was receiving the there are no assets found error.

warning as below
