Today when I added a workflow and push the code to GitHub remote repo, shows this error:
refusing to allow a Personal Access Token to create or update workflow
This is the full error output:

I am auth with token and have privillege to modify the repo. Now I could not push using password. When I try to use my password, the error message is:

Why would this happen and what should I do to fix it?

Under your GitHub user profile (not the repository profile), click the “Settings” link. Scroll down and click the “Developer Settings” link. Click the GitHub “Personal access tokens” link. Click the “Generate new token” link and provide your password again if required.
You can also edit current Personal Access Token to change its scope by including workflow to it. This is exactly what I just did to overcome the issue. @gondadarian. Yes! Thank you. Updating existing user personal access token and adding workflow to it was the most seamless and easiest way to solve this problem.
In your Github account, go to Settings (in your avatar dropdown in the top right-hand corner) If your application is listed, click on its name to edit the settings associated with its token. Make sure workflow is ticked. Click on Update Token to save the change. On the same page, click on Generate Token.
But you need the workflow scope to modify GitHub Actions. In your Github account, go to Settings (in your avatar dropdown in the top right-hand corner) If your application is listed, click on its name to edit the settings associated with its token. Make sure workflow is ticked. Click on Update Token to save the change.
You don't need create Personal Access Token with "workflow", you don';t need create secret GITHUB_TOKEN (it creates auto and can't created manual) For me, it was deleting all github related credentials and logout and back in in the github desktop app. But closest answer by far! Just resolved it!
give workflow privillege when created token in GitHub:
