          issue-number: 1
          body-includes: search string 1
          direction: last

Action inputs

Name Description Default
token GITHUB_TOKEN or a repo scoped PAT. GITHUB_TOKEN
repository The full name of the repository containing the issue or pull request. github.repository (Current repository)
issue-number The number of the issue or pull request in which to search.
comment-author The GitHub user name of the comment author.
body-includes A string to search for in the body of comments.
direction Search direction, specified as first or last first

Outputs

The comment-id, comment-body and comment-author of the matching comment found will be output for use in later steps. They will be empty strings if no matching comment was found. Note that in order to read the step outputs the action step must have an id.

Tip: Empty strings evaluate to zero in GitHub Actions expressions. e.g. If comment-id is an empty string steps.fc.outputs.comment-id == 0 evaluates to true.

      - name: Find Comment
        uses: peter-evans/find-comment@v1
        id: fc
        with:
          issue-number: 1
          body-includes: search string 1
      - run: |
          echo ${{ steps.fc.outputs.comment-id }}
          echo ${{ steps.fc.outputs.comment-body }}
          echo ${{ steps.fc.outputs.comment-author }}

Accessing issues and pull requests in other repositories

You can search the comments of issues and pull requests in another repository by using a PAT instead of GITHUB_TOKEN.
