I have the following two actions, how can I make the second action be executed at the end of the first after making the first one commit and push?

Action1

on: 
  workflow_dispatch:
    inputs:
name: Scrape Data
jobs:
  build:
    name: Build
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
    - uses: actions/checkout@master
    - name: Build
      run: npm install
    - name: Scrape
      run: npm run action 
    - uses: mikeal/publish-to-github-action@master
      env:
        GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }} # GitHub sets this for you

Action2

on: 
  workflow_dispatch:
    inputs:
name: Visit Data
jobs:
  build:
    name: Build
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
    - uses: actions/checkout@master
    - name: Build
      run: npm install
    - name: Scrape
      run: npm run visit 
    - uses: mikeal/publish-to-github-action@master
      env:
        GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }} # GitHub sets this for you
commit action github-actions github

You could use the workflow_run trigger on the second workflow.

Example:

name: Visit Data

on:
  workflow_run:
    workflows: ['Scrape Data'] # First workflow name 
    types: 
      - completed # can also use 'requested'

jobs:
  build:
    name: Build
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
    - uses: actions/checkout@master
    - name: Build
      run: npm install
    - name: Scrape
      run: npm run visit 
    - uses: mikeal/publish-to-github-action@master
      env:
        GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}

Note that you can't use workflow inputs in that case (I observed you had it set, and if it's necessary you would need to use another trigger, for example through the Github API using a workflow dispatch event with a payload).
