Creating release for self-hosted GitHub Enterprise fails

[bwhitehead0]

our environment is self-hosted GitHub Enterprise and self-hosted runners.

when i try to create a release, it fails with the following error:

none of the git remotes configured for this repository point to a known GitHub host. To tell gh about a new GitHub host, please use `gh auth login`
Error: Process completed with exit code 1.

here's the workflow code:

      # create release if create_release is true.
      - name: Create a Release
        if: ${{ github.event.inputs.create_release }}
        uses: elgohr/Github-Release-Action@v5
        env:
          GH_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
        with:
          title: ${{ github.event.inputs.message }}
          tag: ${{ env.TAG }}

i've tried adding a step prior to this that performs a gh auth, but i'm not certain that persists thru steps.

other action steps succeed, such as a git push command when the new tag is pushed up to our GitHub, using the ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}.

does this action work within the checked out repo code like other action steps do? could this be an issue with workdir?

or am i missing something else?

Did you try to set GH_HOST / GH_ENTERPRISE_TOKEN? https://cli.github.com/manual/gh_help_environment

no that did it, GH_HOST + GH_ENTERPRISE_TOKEN. thanks. i will put in a PR to add these to documentation if that's ok.
