error when using branch about action-download-artifact HOT 8 CLOSED

Seeing your whole workflow files would certainly help. For now I can't tell what's wrong.

from action-download-artifact.

The workflow is the following:

name: review
on:
  pull_request:
    branches:
      - development
      - master
      - prod

jobs:
  job_prepare: ...
  job_layers:
    needs: job_prepare
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    strategy:
      matrix: ${{fromJson(needs.job_prepare.outputs.layer_matrix)}}
    steps:
      - name: Checkout
        uses: actions/checkout@v2
      - name: matrix name
        run: |
          echo $GITHUB_WORKSPACE
          echo ${{ matrix.path }}
        - name: Layer via Artifacts
        uses: dawidd6/action-download-artifact@v2
        with:
          workflow: review.yml
          branch: development
          name: ${{ matrix.name }}
      - name: Upload layer zip
        uses: actions/upload-artifact@v2
        with:
          name: ${{ matrix.name }}
          path: ${{ matrix.name }}.zip
  job_lambda: ...
  terraform-plan: ...

I removed some parts for simplicity now.

If you are trying to download artifact before it's uploaded, then it won't work. Otherwise I don't know what the issue is.

Could you link to repository?

from action-download-artifact.

No the workflow run in the same repo.
Lets say I have a PR5 now and I would like to get the last successful PR e.g. 4 and download the artifact from PR4.

I need that approach in order to have the same zip files again otherwise my terraform plan shows differences and needs to run a new apply for lambdas.

Try unsetting branch input.
