Can you please check the token? It says No token specified or token is empty

Here is log and GitHub setting page in my personal project.

@jiji14 alas,

https://docs.github.com/en/actions/security-guides/using-secrets-in-github-actions#using-secrets-in-a-workflow

With the exception of GITHUB_TOKEN, secrets are not passed to the runner when a workflow is triggered from a forked repository.

We ran into this recently with @nataliejschulz; she can confirm.

Does codecov have a suggested workaround for open source projects, which will, of course, mostly follow the fork and pull request model?

[shankari]

Answering my own question, it looks like it does, in issue #29 of https://github.com/codecov/codecov-action

Welcome to Codecov 🎉

Once merged to your default branch, Codecov will compare your coverage reports and display the results in this comment.

Thanks for integrating Codecov - We've got you covered ☂️

@shankari
We are almost there for code coverage, and I need you to do one more thing to add a coverage report in the comments.

Even though I connected the e-mission-phone project to Codecov, the reports didn't show up in the comments. I had a few guesses.

1. It might be because it was the first PR for Codecov. I mocked the situation with the test repository, but the report didn't show up even on the second PR.
2. It might be because I deleted the token in the workflow. I also added the token again and then checked, but it didn't work either.
3. There might be a setting for the comments. Upon checking the issue page on Codecov, I found a similar issue: code cov comment is not added to the PR.

The problem was that I missed connecting with the GitHub Apps - Codecov. After completing this step, I could see the report in the comments on my test repository.

Can you please follow these steps?

1. Go to the GitHub Apps - Codecov page.

2. Click on Configure.

3. Select repositories > e-mission-phone and click Save.

Thanks for being patient with me! 😃

@jiji14 I had already added it as a GitHub app

and there was a message indicating that this will work once this PR is merged
#1108 (comment)

Is that not good enough? I didn't merge because you didn't indicate that the changes were done...

@shankari

This is the codecov report I received from my personal project, so I expected to see the coverage result before merging it. Initially, I thought the app didn't connect with the e-mission-phone repository. As you commented, I now understand that we will receive the coverage report after merging it. Can you please merge this PR? Thank you :D

[shankari]

Fingers crossed!

@jiji14 Looks like it works!
