Copy pasted renovate job failed with token access

[vkuehn]

Hi,

I first time use renovate bot and have therefore copied this

jobs:
  renovate:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - name: Checkout
        uses: actions/[email protected]
      - name: Self-hosted Renovate
        uses: renovatebot/[email protected]
        with:
          token: ${{ secrets.RENOVATE_TOKEN }}

to my https://github.com/vkuehn/renovate-try/blob/main/.github/workflows/renovate.yml

sand the classic RENOVATE_TOKEN exists with full repo rights.

still renovate complains

 Error: 'token' MUST be passed using its input or the 'RENOVATE_TOKEN' environment variable

how to run the most simple renovate bot on github actions ?
with config.js in root ?

it seems the workflow can't access that secret

oh thanks, I have used the token wrongly now the access works but of course have some opther beginner pains with renovate bot
