{% data variables.product.prodname_actions %} workflows from {% data variables.product.prodname_marketplace %}

{% data variables.product.prodname_actions %} workflows from the {% data variables.product.prodname_marketplace %} may not work as users expect.

• Some actions make requests to resources on {% data variables.location.product_location %}, and these actions will not work for enterprises on {% data variables.enterprise.data_residency_site %} unless the author has built a mechanism to inject a secondary token for API calls. A GITHUB_TOKEN within a workflow run for your enterprise on {% data variables.enterprise.data_residency_site %} does not grant access to resources on {% data variables.location.product_location %}.
