I want to use the output from the command for another job. Is there a way to do it? ---

Hi @basix! I’m happy to help, but don’t know the specifics of GitHub Actions. Can you give a little more detail about what you want to do? ---

So in GitHub Actions, I can specify which workflows to run when a pull request is submitted. Like this: [https://docs.github.com/en/actions/learn-github-actions/workflow-syntax-for-github-actions#onpushpull\_requestbranchestags](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/learn-github-actions/workflow-syntax-for-github-actions#onpushpull_requestbranchestags) I was wondering if I can achieve the same effect in Circle CI, as I’m looking to use this instead of GH Actions.
