          aws-secret-access-key: ${{ secrets.AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY }}
          aws-region: ${{ env.REGION }}

Produce only one priority

      - uses: licenseware/unique-elbv2-listener-rule-priority@v1.1
        name: Get unique listerner rule priority
        id: elb-priority
        with:
          listener-arn: ${{ secrets.LOAD_BALANCER_LISTENER_ARN }}

      - uses: aws-actions/aws-cloudformation-github-deploy@v1
        with:
          name: sample-elb-priority
          template: cloudformation-templates/myapp-dev.yml
          no-fail-on-empty-changeset: "1"
          role-arn: ${{ secrets.CLOUD_FORMATION_ROLE_ARN }}
          parameter-overrides: >-
            MyAppLBPriority=${{ steps.elb-priority.outputs.prioritties }}

Produce multiple priorities

      - uses: licenseware/unique-elbv2-listener-rule-priority@v1.1
        name: Get unique listerner rule priority
        id: elb-priority
        with:

          sorted: true
          delimiter: " "
          count: 3

      - name: Get load balancer priorities
        run: |
          export PRIORITIES=$(echo ${{ steps.elb-priority.outputs.priorities }})

          cat << EOF >> $GITHUB_ENV
          MYAPP_LB_PR=$(echo $PRIORITIES | awk '{print $1}')
          YOURAPP_LB_PR=$(echo $PRIORITIES | awk '{print $2}')
          HISAPP_LB_PR=$(echo $PRIORITIES | awk '{print $3}')
          EOF

      - uses: aws-actions/aws-cloudformation-github-deploy@v1
        with:
          name: sample-elb-priority

          role-arn: ${{ secrets.CLOUD_FORMATION_ROLE_ARN }}
          parameter-overrides: >-
            MyAppLBPriority=${{ env.MYAPP_LB_PR }},
            YourAppLBPriority=${{ env.YOURAPP_LB_PR }},
            HisAppLBPriority=${{ env.HISAPP_LB_PR }}
