Issue
We have a continuously growing collection of Gitlab CI variables (around 40-50) in our current project. All these variables are used during our CI/CD pipeline and are crucial for our production environment.
I want to generate backups in regular intervals in case someone messes with these variables.
Unfortunately, I do not see any options to export the variables in Project -> Settings -> CI / CD -> Environment variables
. All I can do is viewing / editing / deleting the variables.
Is there maybe a hidden export function for these variables? We are self-hosting our Gitlab instance (GitLab Community Edition 11.8.1).
Solution
You can use the API in order to query all variables. For example:
curl --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <your_access_token>" "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/1/variables/TEST_VARIABLE_1"
See: https://docs.gitlab.com/ce/api/project_level_variables.html#show-variable-details
