Bug report
Describe the bug
The extension reports a missing-required-inputs error for app_location on the
close_pull_request_job pattern recommended by Azure Static Web Apps. The workflow
runs successfully in CI — the error is a false positive.
Azure/static-web-apps-deploy@v1 marks app_location as required: true in its
action.yml, but the field is only meaningful when action: "upload". When
action: "close", the action ignores app_location entirely and completes without it.
Steps to reproduce
Use the standard close-PR job that Azure's own onboarding wizard generates, with GitHub Actions extension installed:
build_and_deploy_job:
if: github.event_name == 'push' || (github.event_name == 'pull_request' && github.event.action != 'closed')
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
name: Build and Deploy Job
permissions:
id-token: write
