inputs:
ssh-key:
description: >
This option allows you to define a private SSH key to be used in conjunction with a repository deployment key to deploy using SSH.
The private key should be stored in the `secrets / with` menu **as a secret**. The public should be stored in the repositories deployment
keys menu and be given write access.
Alternatively you can set this field to `true` to enable SSH endpoints for deployment without configuring the ssh client. This can be useful if you've
already setup the SSH client using another package or action in a previous step.
required: false
token:
description: >
This option defaults to the repository scoped GitHub Token.
However if you need more permissions for things such as deploying to another repository, you can add a Personal Access Token (PAT) here.
This should be stored in the `secrets / with` menu **as a secret**.
We recommend using a service account with the least permissions neccersary
and when generating a new PAT that you select the least permission scopes required.
