Overview

This node operation enables a deploy key for a specific project in GitLab. It is useful for automating the management of deploy keys, which are SSH keys that allow read-only or read-write access to a repository. For example, this node can be used in CI/CD pipelines to programmatically enable deploy keys for projects, facilitating secure and automated deployments.

Use Case Examples

  1. Enable a deploy key for a project to allow automated deployment processes.
  2. Manage deploy keys across multiple projects by enabling or disabling them programmatically.

Troubleshooting

  • Ensure the project ID and deploy key ID are correct and accessible by the authenticated user.
  • Verify that the API token or credentials have sufficient permissions to enable deploy keys on the project.
  • Check the base URL if using a self-hosted GitLab instance to ensure it is correct.
  • Common error messages include 404 Not Found if the project or key does not exist, and 403 Forbidden if the user lacks permissions.
