Rate limit token does not work on GHE #638
Description
Description:
Using the token parameter for the Github Action, the token is not used.
Action version:
v4
Platform:
- Ubuntu
Runner type:
- Self-hosted
Tools version:
3.x
Repro steps:
Add a Github Action workflow like this to your Github Enterprise repository:
- name: Install Python
uses: actions/setup-python@v4
with:
token: ${{ secrets.DOTCOM_TOKEN }}
python-version: '3.x'
Then also add #510 (comment) using the same token variable.
We can tell by the rate-limit response that the token has not been used.
Expected behavior:
Expect action to use token.
Actual behavior:
API rate limit exceeded for <ip>
We confirmed using the rate limit query that the rate limit quotas have not changed, and thus the token has not been used by the action.

Hi @dmitry-shibanov, looking at the link you provided, not sure if they are related because the error I get is
Error: API rate limit exceeded for x. (But here's the good news: Authenticated requests get a higher rate limit. Check out the documentation for more details.). This is while passing in a GitHub.com Token.v-priya-kinthali commentedon Feb 14, 2024

Hello @mvs5465 👋,
As part of the latest updates, the potential improvement to leverage the raw API for retrieving version-manifest has been implemented and released in v5.1.0. This new approach should mitigate the rate limit exhaustion without requiring an additional GitHub token.
Please update to the latest version and let us know if you encounter any further issues. As this update resolves the reported problem, we will close this issue.
Thank you!
