GL_InstanceVariable

Represents a CI/CD variable defined at the instance scope. Instance variables are injected into all pipeline jobs across all projects on the GitLab instance (subject to protection settings). They are often used for global credentials, deployment keys, or shared configuration.

If the variable's value is found to be a valid GitLab personal access token (verified via API call during enrichment), a GL_IsToken edge is added directly to the corresponding GL_AccessToken node.

Properties

Property Name Data Type Description
name string Variable key name (e.g., AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID)
value string Variable value (empty string if masked=true and the value was hidden)
type string Variable type: env_var or file
protected bool Whether the variable is only injected into protected branch/tag pipelines
masked bool Whether the variable value is masked in job logs
description string Optional description of the variable's purpose
