Request was cancelled

[ethan-nambui]

hi team,

I’m currently using benc-uk/workflow-dispatch (pinned to commit e2e5e9a, v1.2.4) to trigger another workflow, and it has been working fine for a long time.

However, recently it started failing with the error: "Request was cancelled"
The step runs for around 11 seconds and then fails with that message.

Workflow Step:

• name: Trigger e2e
  uses: e2e5e9a # v1.2.4
  with:
  workflow: E2E Test
  token: ${{ secrets.WORKFLOW_DISPATCH_TOKEN }}

Environment:

• Runner: ubuntu-latest
• Action version: v1.2.4 (pinned by commit)
• Token: PAT stored in WORKFLOW_DISPATCH_TOKEN
• This was working previously without any changes to the workflow.

Observations:

• The step consistently fails after ~11 seconds.
• No changes were made to:
  • The workflow name
  • The token secret
  • The runner image
• The target workflow still exists and can be triggered manually.

Questions:
Has anything changed in the GitHub API that could cause this behavior?
Is there a known timeout or cancellation issue in this action?

Has anything changed in the GitHub API that could cause this behavior? - I would be the last to know
Is there a known timeout or cancellation issue in this action? - None that I'm aware of
