Clarify required permissions

[danielwerg]

Getting this error in my new repo.
https://github.com/danielwerg/r6data/actions/runs/4244636478

Not sure what changed because I'm using same exact workflow I have in r6api.js repo and it worked just fine 8 months ago (see: https://github.com/danielwerg/r6api.js/actions/runs/2579219273)

Am I missing something?

[EndBug]

I just had the same issue in one of my repos
It's caused by the fact that now new repositories use the restricted access permissions by default.
You need to either set the access to permissive in the Actions settings of your repo, or, add this permission to the workflow file:

permissions:
  issues: write

I'll update the examples in the docs accordingly

@EndBug Same issue again https://github.com/danielwerg/r6api.js/actions/runs/5609649603

@danielwerg I can't reproduce the issue on another repo 👀
https://github.com/EndBug/labels-test/actions/runs/5609905279/workflow

I've also tried re-running on r6api.js but it still fails...

What are your settings in https://github.com/danielwerg/r6api.js/settings/actions? Maybe you have disabled something?

@EndBug

Doesn't workflow file with

permissions:
  issues: write

suppose to overwrite that?

[EndBug]

@danielwerg No that part is fine, what about the first item of the page, "Actions permissions"?
