How can I add a link to a YAML file that points to, e.g. another web site? The description field would be fine.
I read the YAML documentation but could not find a reference to "external references".

Easy solution: descriptions use format Markdown, which allows links with the format
[I'm an inline-style link](https://www.google.com)

Tried this as a value for property of an action in GitHub Actions workflow. Returns "can not read an implicit mapping pair; a colon is missing".

For my yaml parameter I had to put everything in quotation marks:
"[I'm an inline-style link](https://www.google.com)"I was looking for the same, this may help too.
<a href="https://..." target="_blank">click to open the extarnal tab</a>

The link to the website is broken
YAML does not include any kind of "import" or "include" statement.
BUT what you can do is to use PyYAML (documentation here).
Also, read this previous post, there are some solutions you may want to use to your case.

I would be fine to have a clickable link to another file. No need to import one
