• Added the ability to cross publish to the GitHub Registry.

Minor Changes

• Fixes an issue that prevented SAVE_NAME from working.

Initial Release 🎉

• This is the initial release of the Fetch API Data action. An action which allows you to to make authenticated API requests in order to save the data to your workspace as an environment variable and a .json file. This action can be used in conjunction with the GitHub Pages Deploy Action to update feeds on your GitHub page site from an API that traditionally required a back-end.
• If you encounter an issue please reach out by making an issue.
