Impact
REQUIRED: Choose either Tooling Impact or Customer Impact (or both). At least one checkbox must be selected.
Tooling Impact
- Required tooling change
- Optional tooling change (include reasoning)
Updates GitHub Actions workflows on release/v7.5.6 to use actions/upload-artifact v7 so artifact upload steps remain on supported action versions.
Customer Impact
- Customer reported
- Found internally
Regression
REQUIRED: Check exactly one box.
- Yes
- No
This is not a regression.
Testing
Validated the backport by successfully cherry-picking the original merge commit onto release/v7.5.6 and resolving workflow-version conflicts in the four affected workflow files; changes are limited to upload-artifact action version updates.
Risk
REQUIRED: Check exactly one box.
- High
- Medium
- Low
This touches CI workflow definitions only (no runtime product code). Risk is moderate because pipeline behavior can change with action-version upgrades, but scope is narrow and aligns with upstream merged change.
Merge Conflicts
Cherry-pick conflicts occurred because release/v7.5.6 had actions/upload-artifact v4 references while the original PR moved v6 to v7 on master. Resolved by applying the intended end state (v7 reference/hash) in .github/workflows/macos-ci.yml, .github/workflows/scorecards.yml, .github/workflows/windows-packaging-reusable.yml, and .github/workflows/xunit-tests.yml.
