Hello.

I'm unsure if this is the right place to report this issue or ask for help.

I reported the same issue here and here, hoping that someone has already dealt with it.

I recently noticed a strange behavior change (no more than a few days ago) in a workflow based on gradle/actions/setup-gradle@v3

The problem is that the cache report (in Job Summary) says the cache gets read or written, but the "Caches" page claims it's empty. Just a week ago I saw the cache entries on the "Caches" page normally and I don't understand what happened to it.

A workflow triggered from the default branch correctly saves the cache entries:

Then another one triggered from a pull request targeting the default branch reads the cache:

and yet the "Caches" page shows nothing:

I'm pretty sure there were no modifications to the workflow, so I'm surprised that the "Caches" suddenly became empty. Could it be a GitHub's bug?

I tried to query the information about the cache via gh and, surprisingly, the result was consistent with the "Caches" page:

> gh cache list

No caches found in org/repo

> gh api \
  -H "Accept: application/vnd.github+json" \
  -H "X-GitHub-Api-Version: 2022-11-28" \
  /repos/org/repo/actions/caches

{
  "total_count": 0,
  "actions_caches": []
}

Any ideas?

I have the same problem here. I can create cache successfully, and even use it later, BUT github => caches section is empty and even showing 0 count for caches. Does anyone know what is the problem please?

Same problem here. Cache seems to work normally in actions but the list of caches is empty.

Same here using, despite the cache-nix-action output:

Saving a new cache with the key "xxx".
...
Cache Size: ~xxx MB (xxxxxxxxx B)
Cache saved successfully

I have no idea when it has changed, but the caches of all repositories I could think of are empty today.

Same here, but I also running into this weird issue, where there's a cache hit but deleting the cache failed

Failed to delete the cache.

HttpError: Not Found
Searching for a cache with the key "...".
Lookup only - skipping download
Cache hit occurred on the "primary-key".
Not saving a new cache.

When this deprecation on 1st of Feb. could explain some of the problems described above, it seems like it would not impact the nix-community/cache-nix-action since it is already using action/cache v3+...

Same problem here. Anybody knows how I can nevertheless delete a cache entry without the UI/API showing it?

It turned out that updating setup-gradle to v4 fixes the problem. See this issue for more details: gradle/actions#553
