👋

You are using our latest deploy-pages Actions (v4) which leverage the new Actions Artifact feature. Just try to also update upload-pages-artifact to the latest (which is v3).

I have the very same issue. v3 still works, v4 throws this error.

Adding config before deploy worked for me

  deploy:
    needs: build
    permissions:
      pages: write
      id-token: write
    environment:
      name: github-pages
      url: ${{ steps.deployment.outputs.page_url }}
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
    - name: Configure Pages
      uses: actions/configure-pages@v4
    - name: Deploy to GitHub Pages
      id: deployment
      uses: actions/deploy-pages@v4

[caco3]

Hmm, not sure if this is the solution, because that's what we had more or less (Just additionally actions/upload-pages-artifact@v2 between):
See https://github.com/jomjol/AI-on-the-edge-device/blob/rolling/.github/workflows/build.yaml#L421
