Using npm set config _auth with a GitHub Secret fails

The following npm config set, in my "run" section does not work in my GitHub action.

npm config set //my.registry.io/npm/:_auth {{ secret.NPM_ACCESSTOKEN }}

I know the value of secret.NPM_ACCESSTOKEN is correct, I've been able to verify with an alternative method.

However I need to use the npm config set _auth value method instead of using a ".npmrc".

I've tried a variety of methods for example:

token=$(echo "$(curl -u "$UsernameKey" $Uri)" | extract_token()
npm config set _auth $token

This returns me exactly the same value as the one stored in GH secrets and works successfully. However means I'm making an additional request with the curl.

After double checking all the secrets and passing them into an env (via GitHub) action. The following was the working solution.

Note that I did provide single quotes around the env.NPM_ACCESSTOKEN and _auth instead _authToken worked for me. (thanks @azeem)

npm config set //my.jrog.io/npm/:_auth '${{ env.NPM_ACCESSTOKEN }}'
npm config set strict-ssl false
npm config set email ${{ env.NPM_USERNAME }}@email.com
npm config set registry https://my.jrog.io/npm/npm
