I suggests adding a new API endpoint to facilitate the dispatching of workflows. It empowers developers and teams to automate repetitive tasks and orchestrate complex workflows efficiently.

Create a workflow dispatch event

Payload:

POST /repos/{owner}/{repo}/actions/workflows/{workflow_id}/dispatches
Content-Type: application/json
Authorization: Bearer <token>

{
  "ref": "main",
  "inputs": {
    "param1": "value1",
    "param2": "value2"
  }
}

Permissions:

• "Actions" repository permissions (write)

Additional endpoints:

• Enable workflow (PUT /repos/{owner}/{repo}/actions/workflows/{workflow_id}/enable)
• Disable workflow (PUT /repos/{owner}/{repo}/actions/workflows/{workflow_id}/disable)
• Get a workflow (GET /repos/{owner}/{repo}/actions/workflows/{workflow_id})
• Get workflow usage (GET /repos/{owner}/{repo}/actions/workflows/{workflow_id}/timing)
• List repository workflows (GET /repos/{owner}/{repo}/actions/workflows)

I ran into a situation today where I need to run workflows from a repo that is different from the one containing the code

Hello, help me understand the deployment cycle. The feature seems to be merged to main, but it's still not included in the latest release. When will this be included?
