Description
## **Expected:**
No error
## **What's actually happening:**
[The original action](https://github.com/pickaxe828/Tally/actions/runs/4084709165/jobs/7041728849#step:3:11)
Part of the associated `.yml`:
```yml
- name: Bump version and push tag
id: tag_version
uses: mathieudutour/github-tag-action@v6.1
with:
github_token: ${{ inputs.github_token }}
```
Output:
```yml
Run mathieudutour/github-tag-action@v6.1
default_bump: patch
default_prerelease_bump: prerelease
tag_prefix: v
release_branches: master,main
create_annotated_tag: false
fetch_all_tags: false
dry_run: false
Error: Parameter token or opts.auth is required
```
And stopped running.
##
So what is token actually? I've tried adding the GitHub token to it
```yml
uses: mathieudutour/github-tag-action@v6.1
with:
github_token: ${{ inputs.github_token }}
```
