Hello everyone,

I would like to ask you about the Dataverse Uploader Action on Github. After the upload, if you change the content of your Github repository on Github, are the changes synchronized in Dataverse? Otherwise, is it possible to synchronize them automatically?
Sorry for the silly question, but I am still learning about Dataverse.
Thank you for your assistance,

Ilaria

Hi Ilaria,

Thanks for your question! The answer is YES -- the Action is able to automatically update the Dataverse dataset.

More precisely, you can control what the Action will do by specifying "the trigger" for the action.
For instance, if your workflow (the .yml file) that uses the Dataverse Action has the following code: "on: push", the action will be executed on every push to the repository.

You can find out more about the workflow triggers here: https://docs.github.com/en/actions/using-workflows/events-that-trigger-workflows
I am also happy to review your workflow if needed!

Best,
Ana

Have a good day,
