Strange issue with Rasa X. Fresh Install of latest Rasa X, on a GCP instance. All running fine, synced correctly with github instance, but during setup of some github action workflows syncing stopped despite the rasa X UI saying it was still in sync. Managed to find the issue in the logs via: `$ kubectl --namespace rasa logs rasa-rasa-x-856ddd874c-r952g ...

Please make sure to also set these environment variables: '['${{']'` so not sure why the sync job / git\_service module is picking up the .github/workflow yaml files and is trying to expand these variables. Is this a bug or something that I need to add to a .gitignore style file somewhere to make the rasa X VCS sync not include certain yaml files to sync. ?? I’ve confirmed this is the issue as I’ve removed all actions that use $ {{ }} and the sync works again. ---

Hey @tomolopolis There was an issue in Rasa Open Source, we fixed in the latest `2.2.7 ` release [here](https://pypi.org/project/rasa/2.2.7/). Please upgrade and try again! ---

Hi @degiz - thanks for your response. I followed the guide to explicitly specify the rasa version [Customize Your Deployment](https://rasa.com/docs/rasa-x/installation-and-setup/customize) `export RASA_VERSION="2.2.7" curl -s get-rasa-x.rasa.com | sudo -E bash` but when I login to new pod, I still see 2.2.5. Do I need to uninstall then re-install Rasa X to have the env var picked up? ---

I just tried uninstall / re-install via the quick-install script and see 2.2.5 ---

Hi - @degiz any ideas on why the quick-install script isn’t picking up RASA\_VERSION var?
