+    - [(*) token](#-token)
+
+# Usage
+> :information_source: Check the [ci workflow](.github/workflows/ci.yml) in this repo to see a live example on how to use this action in your own workflow
+
+## Inputs
+- `targetRepository`: Full name (`owner/repo-name`) of the repository that will receive the `repository_dispatch` event.
+  - required: `false`
+  - default: `${{ github.repository }}` (current repository running the workflow)
+
+- `eventType`: Custom event type expected by the receiving repository
+  - required: `true`
+  - example: `'do-something-awesome'`
+
+- `token`: A GitHub Personal Access Token (PAT) ([more info](#-token))
+  - required: `true`
+
+- `payload`: Stringified JSON payload
+    - required: `false`
+    - default: `'{}'`
+    - example: `'{"customField": "some value", "anotherField": "another value"}'`
+
+ ### (*) token
+ :information_source: If you are targeting:
+  - **Public repository**: The PAT only needs `public_repo` scope
+  - **Private repository**: The PAT needs `repo` scope and its owner needs `write` access in the target repository
