How to use the "Reusing Workflows" feature in github?

Question

If would like to use the new "reusable workflows" feature for my Maven builds:

https://docs.github.com/en/actions/learn-github-actions/reusing-workflows

Unfortunately, I did not figure out where I need to activate the beta feature. Or should it work out of the box, without any additional activation?

Answer 1

For a new beta program like "projects", where workflows are also used (as in "Automating projects (beta)") there is an explicit "signup process".

But for "reusable workflows", that feature might already be available, considering there is already a feedback/discussion with:

• an example repository
• an example workflow (invalid, but for another reason)
