⚠️ Traffic data collection is failing #482

Description

@github-actions

The scheduled Collect Traffic Data workflow failed on 2026-07-22.

Traffic data has stopped being captured. Because GitHub only retains a rolling
14-day traffic window, every day this stays broken is data lost permanently.

Most likely cause: the TRAFFIC_TOKEN secret has expired or lost access.
The traffic API requires a PAT with push / administration:read on this repo — the
built-in GITHUB_TOKEN cannot read traffic.

Fix:

  1. Create a new PAT (classic repo scope, or fine-grained: Administration read + Contents R/W + Pull requests R/W).
  2. gh secret set TRAFFIC_TOKEN --repo microsoft/FastTrack --body "<NEW_PAT>"
  3. Re-run: gh workflow run traffic-stats.yml --repo microsoft/FastTrack

This issue is opened automatically by the traffic workflow's failure alert. It will
be reused (not duplicated) while the label traffic-collection-failure stays open.
