Welcome to the Reference a CodeQL query exercise!

This exercise checks your knowledge on referencing a query in a CodeQL workflow. It is automatically graded via a workflow once you have completed the instructions.

About this exercise

A grading script exists under .github/workflows/grading.yml. You do not need to use this workflow for any purpose and altering its contents will affect the repository's ability to assess your exercise and give feedback.

ℹ️ About the use of GitHub Actions in this exercise

This exercise utilizes GitHub Actions, which is free for public repositories and self-hosted runners, but may incur charges on private repositories. See About billing for GitHub Actions to learn more. The use of GitHub Actions also means that it may take the grading workflow a few seconds and sometimes minutes to run.
