I have a .yaml file inside folder .github/workflows/workflow.yml to deploy the react app on github pages when a pull request is merged but it is failing saying Invalid workflow file. You have an error in your yaml syntax on line 13
Please help me
name: Github Pages Deploy
on:
push:
branches:
- 'master'
pull_request:
branches:
- 'master'
types: [closed]
jobs:
if: github.event.pull_request.merged == true
build:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
strategy:
matrix:
node-version: [15.x, 16.x]
steps:
- name: Checkout
uses: actions/checkout@v1
- name: Install and build
run: npm install --save --legacy-peer-deps && npm run build
- name: Deploy
uses: JamesIves/[email protected]
with:
branch: gh-pages # The branch the action should deploy to
folder: build # The folder the action should deploy
The line number 13 is this if: github.event.pull_request.merged == true
I think the issue is here.
jobs:
if: github.event.pull_request.merged == true
build:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
strategy:

The if statement has to be inside of jobs.<job_id>(In this case it's build). So try to change it to
