Ran into this on a GitHub Actions instance with Julia 1.3.0 and x86:

Looks look like an Int32 isn’t large enough to store the status id. I actually asked GitHub about this a month ago and they said:

I believe we currently use a 4-byte integer for "id" fields you see in the REST API, so a an 8-byte integer should be enough.

That said, please be warned that this isn't publicly documented so it might change in the future. I'm not aware of any plans for it to change this, but I guess it might happen at some point.
