Expected Behavior

When creating a release the Github actions should complete without error.

Current Behavior

Under the Build for macOS action step I get an error on the Package Plugin step of the process. The error is as follows:

Error: The template is not valid. ashmanix/obs-plugin-countdown/.github/workflows/build-project.yaml@8756d948a831e70f579bc3b40252990d905168d5 (Line: 151, Col: 21): Error reading JToken from JsonReader. Path '', line 0, position 0.

This indicates an issue with line 152 of the build-project.yaml file where the variable notarize is being decided upon two variables from previous steps but when trying to parse these using fromJSON the error occurs. Just a note that all previous variables seem to parse fine.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create a tag for the plugin repo code
2. Allow build and package Github action to automatically run

Anything else we should know?

My plugin code is available here: https://github.com/ashmanix/obs-plugin-countdown

I had this issue with another plugin before and ended up modifying the line to the following to get it to run:
notarize: ${{ fromJSON(needs.check-event.outputs.notarize) && fromJSON(steps.codesign.outputs.haveNotarizationUser) }}
That was for the code located here: https://github.com/ashmanix/blur-filter-obs-plugin/blob/main/.github/workflows/build-project.yaml#L140 . Note that in both cases notarisation is set to false.
