How to use actions/deploy-pages@v1 to upload to a directory in the auto generated static GH Page?

Body

Hi have several GH Actions that do the following:

1. install playwright, run tests and upload an artifact.
   Then I perform steps to upload the artifact and publish to pages:

   • name: Setup Pages
     uses: actions/configure-pages@v2

   • name: Upload artifact
     uses: actions/upload-pages-artifact@v1
     with:
     path: playwright-report/

   • name: Deploy to GitHub Pages
     id: deployment
     uses: actions/deploy-pages@v1

The artifact deploys to the auto generated url provided by GH Pages: https://username.pages.github.io

The problem I'm running into is that I want to publish all of my GH Action jobs to GH Pages however the GH Action jobs all overwrite each other when published to pages. Is there a way to deploy the pages for each GH Action to a folder on the static page so that they aren't all publishing to the base URL and getting overwritten? for example:
GHAction-Job1 publishes to https://username.pages.github.io/Job1
GHAction-Job2 publishes to https://username.pages.github.io/Job2
etc...

Thank you for the response. I updated the yaml config with the suggestion, however the pages-deploy-branch is not recognized. [cron]
Unexpected input(s) 'pages-deploy-branch', valid inputs are ['emit_telemetry', 'conclusion', 'token', 'timeout', 'error_count', 'reporting_interval', 'artifact_name', 'preview']

I did see some 3rd party packages that offer the ability to specify deployment branches and locations however I'm limited to only using the official GH Pages implementation.

Snippet of modifications made:
- name: Deploy to GitHub Pages
id: deployment
uses: actions/deploy-pages@v1
with:
pages-deploy-branch: gh-action-1
token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
