title: "GitHub Actions"
description: "You can easily deploy your tasks with GitHub actions."

This simple GitHub action file will deploy you Trigger.dev tasks when new code is pushed to the `main` branch and the `trigger` directory has changes in it.
<Warning>
The deploy step will fail if any version mismatches are detected. Please see the [version
pinning](/v3/github-actions#version-pinning) section for more details.

If you already have a GitHub action file, you can just add the final step "🚀 Deploy Trigger.dev" to your existing file.
You need to add the `TRIGGER_ACCESS_TOKEN` secret to your repository. You can create a new access token by going to your profile page and then clicking on the "Personal Access Tokens" tab.
To set it in GitHub go to your repository, click on "Settings", "Secrets and variables" and then "Actions". Add a new secret with the name `TRIGGER_ACCESS_TOKEN` and use the value of your access token.
<Accordion title="How to add TRIGGER_ACCESS_TOKEN in GitHub">
1. Go to your repository on GitHub.
2. Click on "Settings".
3. Click on "Secrets and variables" -> "Actions"
4. Click on "New repository secret".
5. Add the name `TRIGGER_ACCESS_TOKEN` and the value of your access token.

## Version pinning
The CLI and `@trigger.dev/*` package versions need to be in sync, otherwise there will be errors and unpredictable behavior. Hence, the `deploy` command will automatically fail during CI on any version mismatches.
Tip: add the deploy command to your `package.json` file to keep versions managed in the same place. For example:
```json
{
"scripts": {
"deploy:trigger-prod": "npx trigger.dev@3.0.0-beta.34 deploy",
"deploy:trigger": "npx trigger.dev@3.0.0-beta.34 deploy --env staging"
}
}
```
Your workflow file will follow the version specified in the `package.json` script, like so:
```yaml .github/workflows/release-trigger.yml
- name: 🚀 Deploy Trigger.dev
env:
TRIGGER_ACCESS_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.TRIGGER_ACCESS_TOKEN }}
run: |
npm run deploy:trigger
```
You should use the version you run locally during dev and manual deploy. The current version is displayed in the banner, but you can also check it by appending `--version` to any command.
