 The GitHub step output `dashboardUrl` is deprecated. Cypress Dashboard is now [Cypress Cloud](https://on.cypress.io/cloud-introduction).
 
+This action also sets a GitHub step output `runResults` which contains a stringified JSON object.  
+
+This is an example of parsing the `runResults`.  
+
+```yaml
+...
+  steps:
+    - name: Parse run results
+      uses: actions/github-script@v6
+      with:
+        script: |

+          console.log(runResults.totalPassed)
+          ...

+Structure of the run results object can be found [here](https://docs.cypress.io/guides/guides/module-api#Results).

 **Note:** every GitHub workflow step can have `outcome` and `conclusion` properties. See the GitHub [Contexts](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/learn-github-actions/contexts) documentation section [steps context](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/reference/context-and-expression-syntax-for-github-actions#steps-context). In particular, the `outcome` or `conclusion` value can be `success`, `failure`, `cancelled`, or `skipped` which you can use in any following steps.
