Publish to AppSource - Automated validation: failure

[fvet]

When running the 'Publish to AppSource' action, the 'Deliver to AppSource' step is marked as completed (green flag)

However, when looking in the logs, the Automated validation step has failed.

2 questions:

• Shouldn't the 'Publish to AppSource' step fail as well, so it's visible in the github action that the step did not successfully complete?
• Can we have the failure reason as part of the github actions warnings, instead of having to logon to the Partner marketplace / KQL telemetry to see the failure reason? (or maybe include a link / sample KQL in the logs, to run the KQL on App. Insights instead)

I think you are right that it should fail, just want to check one thing:

What did you specify in this question when running the workflow:

on the 2. question - yes, we could certainly include a step, which would get the result codes from validation and add this to the workflow result - maybe in a summary field - I will add this to our backlog, but I am unsure when we will get to this.
