Parameter ''using: node16' is not supported, use 'docker' or 'node12' instead"

Our workflow job failing since new changes added to the code. It's failing load auto-approe-action and throwing below error.

System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException: Specified argument was out of the range of valid values. (Parameter ''using: node16' is not supported, use 'docker' or 'node12' instead.').

and also tried to use below action in our workflow to install node16

• uses: actions/setup-node@v2
  with:
  node-version: '16'
  cache: 'npm'
  • run: npm install

It looks like the default version is now node16. Are you using self-hosted runners, by any chance? It looks like node16 is available if you're using GHES 3.4 or later.

In the meantime, pinning to v2.1.0 (uses: hmarr/auto-approve-action@v2.1.0) will take you back to the node12 based version.

Thanks Harry for replying.
v2.1.0 does not accept PR# as an input it takes only one input param i.e. github token. In our case it will not work.
and our GHES is 3.2 version.
Any other suggestions?
Appreciate your help.

I just tested the recent changes with Node 12 and they seemed to work, so I reverted to Node 12.

Can you check that the v2 branch works? I'll cut a new release if so.

Thanks Harry for the quick help. It resolved our issue.
