Documented steps Send GET to https://api.github.com/repos/{owner}/{repo}/actions/workflows with the Accept application/vnd.github+json header Parse the response workflows array and locate entries by comparing the path field (for example .github/workflows/ci.yml) or the name field Read the numeric id and the state field from each workflow entry to use as the workflow id in later API calls Use the id or the file path as the workflow_id path parameter in dispatch or runs endpoints
Known gotchas The list endpoint returns only 30 workflows by default; page through with per_page up to 100 if a repository has many workflows The workflow_id accepted by later endpoints can be either the numeric id or the .yml file path, so capture both Workflows that were disabled appear with state disabled_manually and will not be dispatchable Anyone with read access to the repository can list workflows for public and private repos using a token with repo scope for private
