A GitHub Actions workflow should run on a schedule, but the team also wants to allow manual triggering with a choice of environment (dev, staging, prod). Which configuration should they use?

Use `on: schedule` and `on: workflow_dispatch` with an input for the environment

Use `on: workflow_run` to trigger from another workflow

Use `on: repository_dispatch` with a custom event type

Use `on: push` with a branch filter and an environment variable

A team uses GitHub Actions. They want to run a workflow on a schedule every weekday at 9 AM UTC, but only if the previous workflow run on the same branch succeeded. Which approach should they use?

Use a `workflow_run` trigger with types: [completed] and filter by branch

Use a `repository_dispatch` trigger with a custom event type

Use a `push` trigger with branches: [main] and a cron expression

Use a `schedule` trigger with cron `0 9 * * 1-5` and add a job that checks the status of the last run before proceeding
