Overview

This node interacts with the GitLab API to reset the registration token for GitLab runners. It is useful in scenarios where you need to invalidate the current registration token and generate a new one for security or operational reasons. For example, if a runner's token is compromised or needs to be rotated regularly, this node can automate the reset process.

Use Case Examples

  1. Resetting the registration token for GitLab runners to enhance security.
  2. Automating token rotation for CI/CD runners in GitLab.

Properties

Name Meaning

Output

JSON

  • response - The JSON response from the GitLab API after resetting the registration token.

Dependencies

  • GitLab API key credential for authentication

Troubleshooting

  • Ensure the GitLab API key credential is correctly configured and has sufficient permissions to reset runner registration tokens.
  • Verify the baseUrl is correctly set to the GitLab instance URL.
  • Check network connectivity to the GitLab server.
  • Common error messages may include authentication failures or permission denied errors, which can be resolved by verifying API key validity and permissions.
