How to set up and validate locally

Numbered steps to set up and validate the change are strongly suggested.

  1. Configure your GDK with GitLab Runner

  2. Create a new project

  3. Add a .gitlab-ci.yml with the following content:

    get_jwt:
      image: alpine:latest
      script:
        - apk add --update jq curl
        - |
          curl -v -H "JOB-TOKEN: $CI_JOB_TOKEN" "${CI_API_V4_URL}/job/id_token" -d aud=my-aud | jq '.id_token | split(".") | .[0],.[1] | @base64d | fromjson'
  4. Check the CI job log. The token data will be printed there.
