Hi all, I've previously posted related to the deployment I'm currently trying to complete but I have managed to get to a state where I should be able to see my newly pushed changes from GitHub reflected on my staging site as the GitHub action is successfully complete and Azure deployment logs are in status of successful. However, from checking the wwwroot on Kudu, my newly created files do not exist and changes have not been made to any files, nor any visual changes which are expected so from looking into the deployment logs on the Azure portal, the only thing that seems strange is that it's telling me that it is skipping the build step to Run-From-Zip.
If anyone could try help with this as I've been stuck looking for answers as to what is going wrong but it doesn't seem to be a common issue and not sure if it should be skipping the build.

2021-12-01T14:26:07.247+00:00 Hi, yes that is the guide that has been followed for deploying a JavaScript application, but there are some differences to the code I'm using and the one in the guide. The guide uses
actions/checkout@mainandactions/setup-node@v1before npm actions and the azure deploy action but the code I've been supplied with usedactions/checkout@v2. The setup is two different YAML workflows, one for the main branch and the other for staging branch so the branches are supplied initially so the Build step only takes place on push to the specific branch. Not sure whether I need to alter the workflow to have a setup-node action or something else? -
