fix(ci): add GitHub Packages auth to docs-deploy workflow - #1461
Merged
Conversation
PR #1457 added the private GitHub Packages dependency @sap-tutorials/cds-alert-notification (+ .npmrc reading ${NODE_AUTH_TOKEN}) and updated 8 workflows with 'packages: read' + NODE_AUTH_TOKEN, but missed docs-deploy.yml. Its 'npm ci' now fails with E401 Unauthorized against npm.pkg.github.com. Mirror the sibling-workflow pattern: grant 'packages: read' and set NODE_AUTH_TOKEN on the npm ci step.
