Hey all, I am trying to run a script via GitHub actions. I set up and build Julia via those respective GitHub actions. But when I run my script, line 1 is `using StackOverflow` and even though I see it show up as installed during the build stage, it says the package is not installed.

Here is the link to the build: [https://github.com/JuliaLangSlack/StackOverflowBot/commit/9ffebb6d99395113574abc9cbb6ab108de24e421/checks?check\_suite\_id=367691228](https://github.com/JuliaLangSlack/StackOverflowBot/commit/9ffebb6d99395113574abc9cbb6ab108de24e421/checks?check_suite_id=367691228)

Thanks!

You need to run in the correct project. Look at how the build step does it.

I added `--project` in the front and it worked! Thanks.
