Action domain

ci_variable

Every action this domain exposes through gitlab_execute_action, from the gitlab://tools manifest. Each entry folds out to its full upstream description and required parameters.

Counted with a Free-tier token against gitlab.com, which is the only host this endpoint talks to: to use it against a self-managed instance, run the server yourself — its documentation covers that. The catalog is scoped to the token that asks, so the count moves with both its tier and its permissions: higher tiers expose more actions, and administration domains only appear to tokens allowed to use them. That is why the figures differ elsewhere: the upstream project catalogues 1,006 actions across 162 domains, and 851 on the Free/CE surface, while this deployment publishes 747 because it is OAuth-only and acts with your token, so the administration domains a non-admin account cannot call never appear. All three describe the same catalog, counted from three vantage points.

3. ci_variable.get

   CI Variable Getread-only

   Get a single CI/CD variable by key, optionally selecting an environment-scoped instance via the filter. Returns: the variable's key, value (redacted when masked or hidden), type, protected/masked/hidden/raw flags, environment scope, and description. See also: ci_variable.list, ci_variable.update, ci_variable.delete.

   Required parameters: key (string), project_id (string)

4. ci_variable.group_create

   Group Variable Create

   Required parameters: group_id (string), key (string)

5. ci_variable.group_delete

   Group Variable Deletedestructive

   Delete a group CI/CD variable by key, selecting an environment-scoped instance via the filter. Returns: a success confirmation message. See also: ci_variable.group_list, ci_variable.group_get.

   Required parameters: group_id (string), key (string)

6. ci_variable.group_get

   Group Variable Getread-only

   Required parameters: group_id (string), key (string)

7. ci_variable.group_list

   Group Variable Listread-only

   List a group's CI/CD variables with order_by, sort, and offset or keyset pagination. Returns: each variable's key, value, type, protected/masked/hidden/raw flags, environment scope, description, and pagination metadata. See also: ci_variable.group_get, ci_variable.group_create, ci_variable.group_update.

   Required parameters: group_id (string)

8. ci_variable.group_update

   Group Variable Update

   Update a group CI/CD variable, selecting an environment-scoped instance via the filter. Returns: the updated variable's key, value, type, protected/masked/hidden/raw flags, environment scope, and description. See also: ci_variable.group_get, ci_variable.group_list, ci_variable.group_delete.

9. ci_variable.instance_create

   Instance Variable Create

   Create an instance-level CI/CD variable with type and protected/masked/raw flags (admin-only). Returns: the created variable's key, value (raw even when masked, because masking redacts CI job logs, not this API), type, flags, and description.

   Required parameters: key (string)

10. ci_variable.instance_delete

11. ci_variable.instance_get

    Instance Variable Getread-only

See also: ci_variable.instance_list, ci_variable.instance_update, ci_variable.instance_delete.

    Required parameters: key (string)

12. ci_variable.instance_list

    Instance Variable Listread-only

    List instance-level CI/CD variables with order_by, sort, and offset or keyset pagination (admin-only).
