 - Inspect and configure cron job in GitHub Action `.github/workflows/actions.yml`
 - It can install and use third party packages from `requirements.txt`
 - Secret environment variables can be used. Set secrets in Settings/Secrets/Actions -> 'New repository secret'. Use the same secret name inside `actions.yml` and `main.py`

+# Actions failing because of Node issues while running GitHub workflow or other issues
+
+- In case a step of the workflow fails because of Node-related issue, you need to update the version of the actions you use to the most recent ones. Check out the actions repositories:
+
+1. [actions/checkout](https://github.com/actions/checkout)
+2. [actions/setup-python](https://github.com/actions/setup-python)
+3. [ad-m/github-push-action](https://github.com/ad-m/github-push-action)
+
+- Should the push action fail because of a permission error like `remote: Write access to repository not granted.`, grant the remote write access from your repository under `Settings -> Actions -> General -> Workflow permissions."
