According with the behavior description the id of "Get npm cache directory" must be "npm-cache-dir".

I checked it in my own project.

 For npm, cache files are stored in `~/.npm` on Posix, or `~\AppData\npm-cache` on Windows, but it's possible to use `npm config get cache` to find the path on any platform. See [the npm docs](https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/cache#cache) for more details.
 
 If using `npm config` to retrieve the cache directory, ensure you run [actions/setup-node](https://github.com/actions/setup-node) first to ensure your `npm` version is correct.
+After [deprecation](https://github.blog/changelog/2022-10-11-github-actions-deprecating-save-state-and-set-output-commands/) of save-state and set-output commands, the correct way to set output is using `${GITHUB_OUTPUT}`. For linux, we can use `${GITHUB_OUTPUT}` whereas for windows we need to use `${env:GITHUB_OUTPUT}` due to two different default shells in these two different OS ie `bash` and `pwsh` respectively.
 
 >Note: It is not recommended to cache `node_modules`, as it can break across Node versions and won't work with `npm ci`

 - name: Get npm cache directory

 ## Use cache across feature branches
 Reusing cache across feature branches is not allowed today to provide cache [isolation](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/using-workflows/caching-dependencies-to-speed-up-workflows#restrictions-for-accessing-a-cache). However if both feature branches are from the default branch, a good way to achieve this is to ensure that the default branch has a cache. This cache will then be consumable by both feature branches.
