 ## Inputs
-
+-   **location** (default value: `/`) - Relative path under `$GITHUB_WORKSPACE` that contains the package that needs to be analyzed. Default uses the `/` location relative to `$GITHUB_WORKSPACE`, that is `$GITHUB_WORKSPACE`.
 
 ## Outputs
 
-## Example usage
+## Usage
+Before running this GitHub Action it's mandatory to run the [actions/checkout](https://github.com/actions/checkout) Action to check-out the repository containing the Rcpp package that needs to be analyzed. Remember that you must specify the parameter `location` for this action if you use the `path` argument for `actions/checkout` or if the package that has to be analyzed isn't located in the root of the repository, otherwise RcppDeepState won't be able to find your package.
+
+```yaml
+- uses: actions/checkout@v2
+
+- uses: FabrizioSandri/RcppDeepState-action
+  with:
+    # Relative path under $GITHUB_WORKSPACE where the package that needs to be
+    # analyzed is located.
+    # Default: / 
+    location: ''
+```
+
+#### Basic example
+This simple workflow can be run inside a repository containing a Rcpp-based package, stored in the root of the repository. 
+```yaml
+- uses: actions/checkout@v2
+
+- uses: FabrizioSandri/RcppDeepState-action
+```
+
+#### Custom path example
+Assume the package you wish to test is not at the repository's root, but rather, for instance, in the `/inst/testpkgs/testSAN` subdirectory. In this case, the package can be analyzed specifying the `location` parameter. 
+
+```yaml
+- uses: actions/checkout@v2
+
+- uses: FabrizioSandri/RcppDeepState-action
+  with:
+    location: '/inst/testpkgs/testSAN'
+```
