Setting deployment marker fails with "invalid entity GUID format"

[bbeesley]

Description

We extensively use the deployment marker action. It has worked perfectly for many months. Since this PR was merged our calls to set the deployment marker now fail every time with a "invalid entity GUID format" error. The guid format isn't invalid, it's the same as its always been and it works fine with the previous version.

Go Version

Unclear, it comes from this docker image.

Current behavior

set deployment marker now fail every time with a "invalid entity GUID format" error.

Expected behavior

set deployment marker properly sets a deployment marker

Steps To Reproduce

Attempt to set a deployment marker using the github action, eg:

    - name: set newrelic application deployment marker
      uses: newrelic/[email protected]
      with:
        apiKey: NRAK-MYSECRETAPIKEY
        region: US
        guid: NDE2ODXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX # obviously this should be an actual guid
        version: 69369ec22b883042b8f85d034900d469ae417656
        user: my-bot-user
        deploymenttype: BASIC

I'm having the same issue. Can we please have a fix or a recommended solution.

We are seeing exactly the same problem here. We use this feature in multiple pipelines many times daily. Seems like downgrading won't help as the code is in an underlying system. Following for a fix/workaround.

Hi all, I wanted to let you know that we've temporarily rolled back the recent change. Unfortunately, there isn't a straightforward workaround for this issue at the moment. To help us troubleshoot further, could you please verify that your entity GUID is correct by checking the metadata of the entity form the All Entities page or use this link to obtain it?

[NSSPKrishna]

Hey everyone, I'm having trouble understanding the issue with the GUID decoding. Could you please share your GUID here so we can investigate further? Are there any specific error messages or logs that you're seeing? Any additional context you can provide would be super helpful in helping us troubleshoot this issue. Let's work together to get to the bottom of this!

👋 Hi again! @atodd @bbeesley @GCamilleri I wanted to follow up on the issue you reported. To help us better investigate and resolve the issue, could you please mail the entity GUIDs related to the issue to [email protected]? This will enable us to look into the matter further. Your help is greatly appreciated!

[bbeesley]

It was every entity guid @NSSPKrishna . Every one of our deployment pipelines, and each environment within them. I can go and dig out the entity guid for every one of our APM services if you like but at that point it's probably easier to just give you our account id.
