How long ago did you install the Renovate app?

GitHub put security restrictions in place preventing apps from pushing to Actions workflows but told me recently it should work now. However you need to have granted the permissions to Renovate to update workflows.

[yurake]

Thank you @rarkins. Installed a month ago.

However you need to have granted the permissions to Renovate to update workflows.

Would you tell me some instruction for granted? I was tried to #846, but still the problem exists.

[rarkins]

If you installed a month ago then there should be no permissions problem. Most likely answer is that there's still a restriction at GitHub's side. Can you reproduce this in a public repo to share?

[yurake]

Here is a test repo.

[rarkins]

Can you simplify to a minimal reproduction? i.e. one actions dependency so one update and one branch? I prefer not to overwhelm GitHub with a complicated repo if I need to raise this fault with them.

[yurake]

I created simple one, this would be correct you want?

I think this issue is same as #5733.
