I’m working on a project where I have two specific folders in my repository, folderA and folderB. I want to set up a GitHub Actions workflow that executes different jobs based on which of these folders was modified in a recent push or pull request.

My current setup looks like this:

name: Validation Run

on:
  pull_request:
    paths:
      - "website/**"
      - "admin/**"
    types:
      - opened

jobs:
  build-website:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    defaults:
      run:
        working-directory: ./website
    steps:
      - name: Checkout
        uses: actions/checkout@v2
      - name: Set up Node.js
        uses: actions/setup-node@v2
        with:
          node-version: "20"
      
  build-admin:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    name: Build Admin Website
    defaults:
      run:
        working-directory: ./admin
    steps:
      - name: Checkout
        uses: actions/checkout@v2
      - name: Set up Node.js
        uses: actions/setup-node@v2
        with:
          node-version: "20"
