| If the release-please action fails, it never removes the `autorelease: pending` label. This causes release-please to ignore any workflow changes and continuously retries the failed release. | ||
|
|
||
| #### Examples | ||
|
|
||
| - You update `release-as` in your workflow to a new version, but release-please keeps trying to create the old version | ||
| - Release-please workflow runs but ignores your configuration changes | ||
| - You see the error message `Resource not accessible by integration` or permission errors in the workflow logs | ||
|
|
||
| #### Solution | ||
|
|
||
| - Find the Release PR that failed with the `autorelease: pending` label | ||
| - Manually remove the `autorelease: pending` label from the PR | ||
| - Re-run the release-please workflow | ||
| - This clears release-please's "memory" of the failed release and allows it to read your updated configuration No newline at end of file |

| This guide applies to any CSDA repository that uses the release-please action. Each repo must include a `.github/workflows/release-please.yml` workflow and grant the CSDA release app repository access. Use this guide when a release fails, versions become stale, workflows report permission errors or release-please ignores configuration changes. | ||

| For guidance on the overall release and deployment process, see the CSDA project wiki: [Code Releases (Deployments)](https://github.com/NASA-IMPACT/csda-project/wiki/Code-Releases-(Deployments)). |
