Overview

This node interacts with the GitLab API to retrieve the support PIN of the authenticated user via the endpoint `/api/v4/user/support_pin`. It is useful in scenarios where a user needs to programmatically obtain their GitLab support PIN for support or verification purposes.

Use Case Examples

  1. A user automates the retrieval of their GitLab support PIN to include it in support tickets.
  2. A system fetches the support PIN to verify user identity before performing sensitive operations.

Properties

Output

JSON

  • support_pin - The support PIN of the authenticated GitLab user retrieved from the API response.

Dependencies

  • GitLab API key credential for authentication

Troubleshooting

  • Ensure the GitLab API key credential is correctly configured and has the necessary permissions to access the user support PIN endpoint.
  • If the node returns authentication errors, verify that the 'Skip Authentication' property is set correctly and that the base URL is accurate.
  • Check network connectivity to the specified GitLab instance URL to avoid request failures.
