GL_SecureFile

Represents a secure file stored within a GitLab project. Secure files are project-scoped files (such as signing certificates, keystores, provisioning profiles, and API credential files) that can be downloaded into CI/CD jobs at runtime. They are not stored as CI/CD variables and are not included in repository history, but they are accessible to jobs with the appropriate permissions.

If the secure file is a certificate, metadata about the issuer, subject, and expiration is extracted and stored as properties.

Properties

Property Name Data Type Description
name string Secure file filename (e.g., signing.p12, service-account.json)
checksum string File integrity checksum
created_at datetime When the secure file was uploaded
expires_at datetime Optional expiration date for the file
metadata.issuer string Certificate issuer DN (if the file is an X.509 certificate)
metadata.subject string Certificate subject DN
metadata.expires_at string Certificate expiration date from the certificate metadata
