### Description Uploads from public repository on Github using Github Actions shows: ```auto [2022-07-25T18:41:14.578Z] ['error'] There was an error running the uploader: Error uploading to https://codecov.io: Error: There was an error fetching the storage URL during POST: 404 - {'detail': ErrorDetail(string='Unable to locate build via Github Actions API. Please upload with the Codecov repository upload token to resolve issue.', code='not_found')} ``` Seems to be a random failure. Other uploads for other jobs work OK. ### CI/CD URL [https://github.com/apereo/cas/runs/7505867350?check\_suite\_focus=true](https://github.com/apereo/cas/runs/7505867350?check_suite_focus=true) and [https://github.com/apereo/cas/blob/master/.github/workflows/test-ubuntu.yml#L159](https://github.com/apereo/cas/blob/master/.github/workflows/test-ubuntu.yml#L159) ### Codecov Output ```auto Run codecov/codecov-action@v3 with: files: ./build/reports/jacoco/jacocoRootReport/jacocoRootReport.xml flags: mail name: mail verbose: false env: JAVA_OPTS: -Xms512m -Xmx6048m -Xss128m -XX:ReservedCodeCacheSize=512m -server GRADLE_OPTS: -Xms512m -Xmx6048m -Xss128m -XX:ReservedCodeCacheSize=512m -server TERM: xterm-256color GRADLE_BUILDCACHE_USER: ci GRADLE_BUILDCACHE_PSW: *** CODACY_PROJECT_TOKEN: *** SONARCLOUD_TOKEN: *** GITHUB_TOKEN: *** JDK_CURRENT: 11 RETRY_MINUTES: 180 CATEGORY_REGEX: .* JAVA_HOME: /opt/hostedtoolcache/Java_Temurin-Hotspot_jdk/11.0.15-10/x64 ==> linux OS detected https://uploader.codecov.io/latest/linux/codecov.SHA256SUM ==> SHASUM file signed by key id 806bb28aed779869 ==> Uploader SHASUM verified (432553f03714a83ab5cac78be2e7fe6a6050767f78f77e9c7a84bdb1c34a0bd3 codecov) ==> Running version latest ==> Running version v0.2.4 /home/runner/work/_actions/codecov/codecov-action/v3/dist/codecov -n mail -Q github-action-3.1.0 -f ./build/reports/jacoco/jacocoRootReport/jacocoRootReport.xml -F mail [2022-07-25T18:41:13.025Z] ['info'] _____ _ / ____ | | | | | _____ | | ______ _______ | | / _ \ / _` |/ _ \/ __/ _ \ \ / / | |___| (_) | (_| |__/ (_| (_) \ V / \ _____\___ / \ __,_|\___ |\ ___\___ / \_/ Codecov report uploader 0.2.4 [2022-07-25T18:41:13.041Z] ['info'] => Project root located at: /home/runner/work/cas/cas [2022-07-25T18:41:13.046Z] ['info'] -> No token specified or token is empty [2022-07-25T18:41:13.072Z] ['info'] Searching for coverage files...

@mmoayyed strange… you shouldn’t have to. I see that you added in the token. I’m pretty sure the issue you ran into is a result of [this](https://status.codecov.com/incidents/33j08wzlmy28). ---

Ah I see. I was thrown off by the error message. Thanks much! I suppose I could remove the token then? ---

@mmoayyed yes it should be safe to remove with public projects using GitHub Actions ---
