REST API "CreateCommitStatus" returning a 404

[aiell0]

Describe the bug Get an error 404 not found when trying to create a commit status.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Create a github action that runs each time a pull request has to synchronize.
2. Place the following action inside of it:

    - name: Set final commit status
      uses: actions/github-script@v7
      if: always()
      env:
        GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ github.token }}
      with:
        script: |
          github.rest.repos.createCommitStatus({
            owner: context.repo.owner,
            repo: context.repo.repo,
            sha: context.repo.sha,
            state: 'success',
            description: "Helm check succeeded!",
            context: 'continuous-integration/helm'
          })

3. Open a PR.
4. Commit to that PR to trigger this action.

Expected behavior API runs successfully and the check is created/updated.

Additional context I am fairly sure it is because the sha is not at the end of the endpoint, like it is documented here. I went back to using the gh api command like in the docs and it is working now.

Had the same issue with creating a comment. The problem was that actions triggered by push event don't have pull request context (number to be specific). Had to switch to pull_request trigger.

I set it up as below and it worked.

github.rest.repos.createCommitStatus({
  owner: context.repo.owner,
  repo: context.repo.repo,
  sha: context.payload.pull_request.head.sha
  state: 'success',
  target_url: context.payload.repository.commits_url,
})

@gaikaz's suggestion worked so I will close this for now.
