This is due to the fact that the GITHUB_TOKEN can not trigger events. Feel free to have a look at my project/action. If you use theses generated by the action it should trigger events as you expect. https://github.com/qoomon/actions--access-token |

Question
Body
I have a workflow that periodically creates PRs that update some things. The problem is that when the workflow runs and a PR is created, i don't receive a notification for it.
I suspect this is due to the usage of a PAT: GitHub thinks that since "i" created the PR, sending a notification is redundant, which is normally reasonable, but not in this case because "i" is not i, it's the workflow.
The result is that i miss these PRs and therefore they don't get merged in time (more recent case). I'm also not alone in this problem.
Is there a solution to this?
