Github Action failure: Configuration file doesn't exist

Crowdin Issues
1

I am attempting to set up a Github Action as per the default instructions at crowdin-action · Actions · GitHub Marketplace · GitHub but when Github runs the action it shows the error:

STARTING CROWDIN ACTION
UPLOAD SOURCES
❌ Configuration file doesn't exist. Run the 'crowdin init' to generate configuration skeleton

I have correctly added the three required secrets, GH_TOKEN, CROWDIN_PROJECT_ID and CROWDIN_PERSONAL_TOKEN, and created the project on Crowdin.

I tried adding the following suggested line to the crowdin.yml

command: init

but that didn’t help, it gave the error:

STARTING CROWDIN ACTION
RUNNING COMMAND crowdin init 
Generating Crowdin CLI configuration skeleton '/github/workspace/crowdin.yml'
❌ Failed to create the configuration file. Try to run the application with admin permission
❌ No line found
Authorize via browser?: (Y/n)

How should I proceed?

Hi @shaneos ,

It seems that you have not created a crowdin.yml configuration file with the specified source and translation paths. Please see the Configuration File documentation
