Overview

This node operation retrieves the support PIN of a specific user from the GitLab API (version 4). It is useful in scenarios where support or administrative actions require verification or identification of a user via their support PIN. For example, a support team member might use this to verify a user's identity before providing assistance.

Use Case Examples

  1. Retrieve the support PIN for a user with a given user ID to verify their identity during a support call.
  2. Automate fetching user support PINs for administrative audits or support workflows.
