GH-200 Exam Dumps : GitHub Actions Exam

GITHUB_WORKSPACE is a default environment variable in GitHub Actions that points to the directory on the runner where your repository is checked out. This variable allows you to access files within your repository during the workflow.

The repository_dispatch event allows you to trigger a workflow in response to external activity. It is commonly used when you need to trigger a workflow from outside GitHub, such as from another system or service, by sending a request to the GitHub API. This event provides flexibility to integrate with various external systems and trigger workflows in a GitHub repository.

GitHub Actions supports the use of service containers, which allows you to spin up a PostgreSQL database (or any other service) in a Docker container during your workflow. You can pull a PostgreSQL image from Docker Hub, and the container will automatically be available to your workflow job. This method requires no additional infrastructure and is easy to configure and maintain, as you simply define the container in the workflow file.
