Description

Contributing guidelines
I've found a bug, and:
  • The documentation does not mention anything about my problem
  • There are no open or closed issues that are related to my problem
Description

I felt like the default use was like in the readme to use

name: Set up Docker Buildx
uses: docker/setup-buildx-action@v3

And in the readme it says that outputs include imageid. It took me a long time to figure out that doesn't happen if you use buildx. Maybe that should be made more clear in the readme? Or maybe other people knew to expect that?
Thanks!

Research direction

Start with the repository README section that lists outputs and the setup-buildx-action@v3 example. Verify how imageid is presented for the default Buildx usage, then update the README so its availability or limitation is explicit and confirm the documented behavior is accurate.
