The error screen image

@davidkhala that error is not from this action, it's a setting in your repository or your organization that limits which actions can run. You can see this in a repository by browsing to Settings > Actions > General

@briantist yes, I see this as a workaround -- to add this action into white list. But I wonder why softprops is not a verified creator

Well, it's up to the author if they want to try to get verified; I can't answer for that.

But if that's your question, you should update the title and body of the issue.

The error message you're getting is a setting you need to change. And as for the title, showing up the marketplace is not related to what you can use after the @. Any commit-ish works (a tag, a branch, a commit SHA), and there's no separate process to publish specific ones (an action also doesn't need to be on the marketplace to be used).

Also know that GitHub has a huge backlog for verified creators. I know of creators that are already waiting to be verified for months.

The conversation on becoming a verified creator is sadly much more complicated. Right now there seems to be no way to get verified as individual, and only companies will have a chance to get verified: https://github.com/orgs/community/discussions/25265
