A GitHub Action that creates a new password for your PlanetScale database branch

Unquoted outputs

Hello, I was so glad to see you had some github actions for planetscale, these make life easier 😁

I had a quick question about the outputs though, would it possible to add some outputs that didn't contain the quotes?

Currently when I try to use ${{ steps.create_password.outputs.username }} it returns like this "new_username"

e.g. in my pipeline if im constructing my connection string on the fly I might do the following

"mysql://${{steps.create_password.outputs.username}}:${{ steps.create_password.outputs.password }}@eu-west.connect.psdb.cloud/something?sslaccept=strict"

this becomes

"mysql://"new_username":"new_password"@eu-west.connect.psdb.cloud/something?sslaccept=strict"

I believe this could be achieved by adding -r to your jq command e.g.

username_raw=$(jq -n "$CMDOUT" | jq -r '.username')

Thanks!

Service token unable to create a branch password

Hey!

I'm facing an issue with permissions. I am unsure if this was deprecated but I am unable to find create_branch_password permission anywhere.

I'm referring to the guide here: https://planetscale.com/docs/devops/create-branch-password-action
API Ref states that this is a required permission for service token: https://api-docs.planetscale.com/reference/create-a-password

The option to add create_branch_password to service token is nowhere to be found:

Was this permission and therefore the action deprecated? How can we create a branch password with service token?

Edit:
Apparently it works if you give full branch permissions. Not sure which permission here is actually responsible for password creation.
