Warnings from the build step causes the action to fail even though CI is set to false

[Yusuf-YENICERI]

Here is the part of my workflow:

cypress-run:

runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
  - name: Checkout
    uses: actions/checkout@v2
  - run: CI=false
  # Install NPM dependencies, cache them correctly
  # and run all Cypress tests
  - name: Cypress run
    uses: cypress-io/github-action@v2
    with:
      build: yarn build
      start: yarn start
    env:
      CI: false

Here is the error produced by workflow:

"Treating warnings as errors because process.env.CI = true. Most CI servers set it automatically.

Failed to compile."

My project is producing warnings in the build step and this causes the action to fail. Because it says CI is set to true even though i have assigned it to false.

How can i set it correctly?

@Yusuf-YENICERI Did you ever figure this out? Happening for me too-- have tried also:

        env:
          CI: false

        env:
          CI: ''

        - run: CI=false

        - run: CI=''

        with:
          build: CI= yarn build

        with:
          build: CI='' yarn build

        with:
          build: CI=false yarn build

I have resolved this problem in the following workflow:

The reason setting CI to false is not working probably related with the cypress's own environment.
