GHA running in a loop when authorizing the jira-token

[ashwiniyerabati9]

Getting this error when i deauthorize the Jira token which is expected but when i authorize the jira-token, the github action works but runs in a loop. Not just this action all actions start to run in a loop.

Deauthorized

Authorized: GHA running in a loop

@cakeinpanic - Looks like the pull_request type having edited and the description being updated are making the actions run in a loop.

@ashwiniyerabati9 loop is not related to the action itself – please edit your workflow triggers, here is an example https://github.com/cakeinpanic/jira-description-action#installation ,

@cakeinpanic - There are no other actions which are chained on the PR description.

@cakeinpanic - Extract the ticket from the title and add to the description Once the description is updated, GHA is still being executed in a loop and not breaking out of the action.

Is the looping action because of the action editing the PR? Can we get a confirmation on where the loop will break out in an expected flow.

@ashwiniyerabati9 loop happens because you have a trigger which is related to editing PR title. Please provide your workflow file so I can say for sure
