@freddydk hi sir, appreciate your advice on the same sir

[freddydk]

Sorry for the delay.
You probably need to specify an authtoken for the appdependencyprobingpath - see https://aka.ms/algosettings#appdependencyprobingpaths

Alternatively, you can use GitHubPackages by creating an organizational secret called GitHubPackagesContext - then all dependency resolution between apps in your org will be automatic. https://aka.ms/algosecrets#githubpackagescontext

Hi Sir @freddydk

I used below variable in the repository

{  
"appDependencyProbingPaths": [
    {
      "repo": "Dynamics-Business-Solutions/Dynamics-Library",
      "release_status": "latestBuild",
      "authTokenSecret": "GHTOKENWORKFLOW"
    }
  ]
}

Unauthorized

I am not sure if need to modify the setting for secret GHTOKENWORKFLOW

[freddydk]

That sounds like the GhTokenWorkflow secret doesn't have read access to the Dynamics-Business-Solutions/Dynamics-Library repository?
You don't have to modify that secret - you can create another PAT with read access to that repo.
