Overview

This node operation retrieves a specific deploy key from a GitLab project using the GitLab API. It is useful for scenarios where you need to access or verify deploy keys associated with a project, such as for automation scripts managing project access or auditing keys.

Use Case Examples

  1. Get details of a deploy key by providing the project ID and the deploy key ID to verify its properties or status.
  2. Use in CI/CD pipelines to dynamically fetch deploy key information for deployment automation.
