Hi all!
I'm pretty new in actions.
I'm trying to get a workflow which enriches my assets on release with a custom one.

I started from this and tried to customize, 'cause I don't want it on API, but on creating a new release from web console.
https://github.com/actions/upload-release-asset#usage

Here what I made up to now:

on:
  release:
    types: [created]
    branches:
      - '*'

name: Upload Release Asset On Release Publish

jobs:
  build:
    name: Upload Release Asset
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - name: Checkout code
        uses: actions/checkout@v4
      - name: Build project # This would actually build your project, using zip for an example artifact
        run: |
          zip --junk-paths -r Greetings.zip Greetings LICENSE README.md
      - name: View project
        run: |
          unzip -l Greetings.zip
      #- name: Create Release
      #  id: create_release
      #  uses: actions/create-release@v1
      #  env:
      #    GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
      #  with:
      #    tag_name: ${{ github.ref }}
      #    release_name: Release ${{ github.ref }}
      #    draft: false
      #    prerelease: false
      - name: Upload Release Asset
        id: upload_release_asset
        uses: actions/upload-release-asset@v1
        env:
          GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
        with:
          #upload_url: ${{ steps.create_release.outputs.upload_url }} # This pulls from the CREATE RELEASE step above, referencing it's ID to get its outputs object, which include a `upload_url`. See this blog post for more info: https://jasonet.co/posts/new-features-of-github-actions/#passing-data-to-future-steps 
          upload_url: ${{ github.server_url }}/${{ github.repository }}/releases/${{ github.ref_name }} # while not calling create_release, this is the path handmade
          asset_path: ./Greetings.zip
          asset_name: Greetings.zip
          asset_content_type: application/zip
      - name: Upload Release Asset Output
        run: echo "💡 File available in ${{ steps.upload_release_asset.outputs.browser_download_url }}"

I doesn't return error, but it also does nothing.

Probably I'm just doing a mess, and I don't know.
The fact that there aren't any versions newer than v1 makes me suspicious.
Maybe it's deprecated?

There's any other way I could obtain that result?

I resolved adopting this one:

name: GH Upload Release Asset On Release Publish

on:
  release:
    types: [published]
    branches:
      - '*'

jobs:
  build:
    name: Upload Release Asset
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - name: Checkout Code
        uses: actions/checkout@v4
      - name: Build Release Asset
        run: |
          rsync -Rr --exclude=".*" . ./Greetings
          zip -r Greetings_${{ github.ref_name }}.zip Greetings
          rm -r Greetings
      - name: View Release Asset
        run: |
          unzip -l Greetings_${{ github.ref_name }}.zip
      - name: Upload Release Asset
        id: upload_release_asset
        uses: softprops/action-gh-release@v2
        with:
          files: Greetings_${{ github.ref_name }}.zip
      - name: Release Output
        run: echo "💡 Release available in ${{ steps.upload_release_asset.outputs.url }}"
      - name: Uploaded Release Assets Output
        run: echo "💡 Assets available ${{ steps.upload_release_asset.outputs.assets }}"
