From YouTube: 12.9 - Group Deploy Tokens

Description

Issue: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/issues/21765
Documentation: https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/project/deploy_tokens/#deploy-tokens

A

Hi this is a demo for the group deploy tokens group deploy tokens is the new feature that ships will get lap 12.8. It allows users to create deploy tokens at the group level, which means that after creating such deploy token, they can they'll be able to use the same token to clone projects belonging to that group or belonging to subgroups of that group. A link to that issue can be found in the description of this video.

A

Let's go to an example. Let's say that we have the food group and in it we have two sub groups: the fruits and vegetables groups. In fruit group. We have one project, the orange project and in vegetable group we have two project carrot and broccoli projects.

A

We want to be able to clone to three private projects using the same deploy token, so we're going to need to create a group deploy token at the group that that is common to all those three projects. That's the food group going back to that group. We can go to settings and see ICD and we can see that a new section was added the deploy tokens section, which is pretty similar to the deploy token section at the project level. Let's create a new token. Let's call this one, the food token.

A

Let's say that it expires in 2021.

A

Sometimes, since February 20 we're gonna, give it a scope, the rich repository scope.

A

There we go. Here's our token I'm going to make a note of it.

A

There you go and we are going to try it out.

A

Let's say that we want to clone the orange project with it, I'm going to go here and I'm going to copy the HTTP URL here, I'm going to amend it so that it includes. First, our group deploy token username and I group deploy token password.

A

Perfect and we are going to try if we can clone this excellent, we just cloned our orange project now we're going to use the same token to clone. Add vegetable one of our projects in the vegetable group. Let's say the broccoli project I'm not going to copy/paste its URL I'm just going to modify this one here by just changing the name of the group.

A

And the name of the project.

A

Let's give this a try, excellent.

A

We have cloned two projects belonging to two different groups but belonging to the same super group, and we've done that by, however, by creating a group deploy token at the super at the super group level. So if we want, we could also create a group deploy token just for the vegetables projects, we're going to try to do that. So at the vegetables group level, we're going to go to setting CI CD deploy tokens.

A

We see I mentioned that there is that this group has no active, deploy tokens right. We have deploy tokens at the food level, but for that group we don't have any deploy tokens.

A

We're going to call this one vegetable tokens.

A

We're going to have it expire, it let's say it X next month.

A

And we have here, our new vegetable deploy token I'm, going to make note of it.

A

And we're gonna try to first clone the orange project.

A

With this new token, as we expect it shouldn't work, but with such a token, we should be able to create two clones. Sorry, the broccoli project.

A

Let's give this a try before doing that, I'm going to remove those two projects, a current area.

A

And I try to clone this here.

A

A

This is the message that we should have. Yes, the project you were looking for could not be found using the vegetable group deploy token. We cannot clone that orange project as expected.

A

If we are trying to.

A

Clone the broccoli project, then it should be successful. Excellent. We have a broccoli project and that's basically it regarding the group in group deployed against. Thank you for watching.
