gpg: signing failed: No secret key

I've followed the steps using crazy-max/ghaction-import-gpg as the documentation recommended.

However I'm having no luck getting the commitizen-action to sign the commits/tags etc.

Checking git config --global --list matches the name, email and signing key.

Is this the reason https://github.com/commitizen-tools/commitizen-action/issues/50#issuecomment-1289884966?

If so, any plans on how to solve this?

@brazarb we're you able to sign off commits, i am using a similar approach to yours and keep getting the same error
