"protected": true,
"masked": false,
"raw": true,

]Command : Gitlab Push Variables
Selecte your Git project then select the json file to push your variables to the Gitlab project.
Command : Gitlab Del Variables
Choose your Git project and indicate whether you'd like to create a backup. If you opt for a backup, specify the JSON file to retrieve your variables from the GitLab project. Following that, you can choose the scope of environments you wish to delete.
Command : Gitlab Generate json variables file
This command generates a JSON file containing the environment variables used in the currently open VSCode editor. You can select a custom path to save the generated JSON file.
The function relies on the following settings defined in the extension's settings.json:
excludePrefixes: An array of string prefixes. Variables starting with any of these prefixes will be excluded from extraction.
excludeSuffixes: An array of string suffixes. Variables ending with any of these suffixes will be excluded from extraction.
excludeContent: An array of string content. Variables containing any of these strings within their names will be excluded from extraction.
Example:
"gitvarmng.excludePrefixes": [
"CI_"
],
"gitvarmng.excludeSuffixes": [
"foo"
],
"gitvarmng.excludeContent": [
"bar"
]Add in your settings.json your private token.
Example:
"gitvarmng.gitlabTokens": [
{
"domain": "mygitlab-rec.fr",
"privateToken": "my-gitlab-token-rec",
"defaultSavPath": "D:\\vbox_data\\var-gitlab\\rec"
},
{
"domain": "mygitlab-prod.fr",
"privateToken": "my-gitlab-token-prod",
"defaultSavPath": "D:\\vbox_data\\var-gitlab\\prod"
},
...
