Issue 555

AL-Go contains several workflows, which create a Pull Request or pushes code directly.
All (except Update AL-Go System Files) earlier used the GITHUB_TOKEN to create the PR or commit.
The problem using GITHUB_TOKEN is that is doesn't trigger a pull request build or a commit build.
This is by design: https://docs.github.com/en/actions/using-workflows/triggering-a-workflow#triggering-a-workflow-from-a-workflow
Now, you can set the checkbox called Use GhTokenWorkflow to allowing you to use the GhTokenWorkflow instead of the GITHUB_TOKEN - making sure that workflows are triggered

New Settings

• keyVaultCodesignCertificateName: With this setting you can delegate the codesigning to an Azure Key Vault. This can be useful if your certificate has to be stored in a Hardware Security Module
• PullRequestTrigger: With this setting you can set which trigger to use for Pull Request Builds. By default AL-Go will use pull_request_target.

New Actions

• DownloadProjectDependencies: Downloads the dependency apps for a given project and build mode.

Settings and Secrets in AL-Go for GitHub

In earlier versions of AL-Go for GitHub, all settings were available as individual environment variables to scripts and overrides, this is no longer the case.
Settings were also available as one compressed JSON structure in env:Settings, this is still the case.
Settings can no longer contain line breaks. It might have been possible to use line breaks earlier, but it would likely have unwanted consequences.
Use $settings = $ENV:Settings | ConvertFrom-Json to get all settings in PowerShell.

In earlier versions of AL-Go for GitHub, all secrets requested by AL-Go for GitHub were available as individual environment variables to scripts and overrides, this is no longer the case.
As described in bug 647, all secrets available to the workflow were also available in env:_Secrets, this is no longer the case.
All requested secrets were also available (base64 encoded) as one compressed JSON structure in env:Secrets, this is still the case.
Use $secrets = $ENV:Secrets | ConvertFrom-Json to get all requested secrets in PowerShell.
You cannot get to any secrets that weren't requested by AL-Go for GitHub.
