Custom AL-Go files

AL-Go for GitHub now supports updating files from your custom templates via the new customALGoFiles setting. Read more at customALGoFiles.

Set default values for workflow inputs

A new setting workflowDefaultInputs allows you to configure default values for workflow_dispatch inputs. This makes it easier to run workflows manually with consistent settings across your team.

When you add this setting to your AL-Go settings file and run the "Update AL-Go System Files" workflow, the default values will be automatically applied to the workflow YAML files in your repository.
The default values must match the input types (boolean, number, string, or choice) defined in the workflow YAML files.

Example configuration:

{
  "workflowDefaultInputs": [
    { "name": "directCommit", "value": true },
    { "name": "useGhTokenWorkflow", "value": true }
  ]
}

This setting can be used on its own in repository settings to apply defaults to all workflows with matching input names. Alternatively, you can use it within conditional settings to apply defaults only to specific workflows, branches, or other conditions.

Example using conditional settings to target specific workflows:

{
  "conditionalSettings": [
    {
      "workflows": ["Create Release"],
      "settings": {
        "workflowDefaultInputs": [
          { "name": "directCommit", "value": true },
          { "name": "releaseType", "value": "Prerelease" }
        ]
      }
    }
  ]
}

Important: When multiple conditional settings blocks match and both define workflowDefaultInputs, the arrays are merged following AL-Go's standard behavior for complex setting types (all entries are kept). If the same input name appears in multiple entries, the last matching entry takes precedence.
