I have generated personal token from github and added in circle ci environment variable and also added npm environment variable.

After setting env variable still I am getting above error for github token and for npm token look like its setted well. so, github token is causing issue.

Solution

  • Got the issue. In package.json Previously in publishConfig access is restricted

    "publishConfig": {
    "access": "restricted"
  }

    updated it to access to public .

    "publishConfig": {
    "access": "public"
  }
