Action working for 1 user and not for the other

Body

I have an aws action using github\workflows\deploy.yml that triggers auto deployment to AWS. It is working fine and getting triggered for me (owner of repo), but not getting triggered when the other collaborator pushes code. Even a simple workflow like this doesn't work for the other user:

name: Test Workflow

on:
push:
branches:
- main

jobs:
test:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- name: Hello World
run: echo "Hello World!"

What should I do? I have checked all settings and everything seems to be fine.

Those are things you could try, hope it helps

1. Check Collaborator Permissions: Ensure they have at least write access in Settings > Collaborators.

2. Enable Workflow Permissions: Go to Settings > Actions > General, enable Read and write permissions.

3. Branch Protection Rules: Verify Settings > Branches doesn't restrict pushes or workflows for collaborators.

4. Secrets Access: Ensure collaborators have access to secrets in Settings > Secrets and variables > Actions.

5. Fork Issues: If using forks, enable Workflows triggered by forked pull requests in Settings > Actions.

6. Debug Workflow: Add this to log events:

 steps:
     - name: Print Context
       run: echo "${{ toJson(github) }}"

7. Ensure the collaborator pushes directly to the correct branch (main).

Checked everything you have mentioned barring #4. The collaborator doesn't even see the settings option in the repo. Is that something he should be seeing and could that be the issue?
