NAME

glab-variable-get - Get a variable for a project or group.

SYNOPSIS

glab variable get [flags]

DESCRIPTION

Prints the value of a single variable by key. Use --scope to select a variable in a specific environment, or --group to read a group variable instead.

By default the command reads one level only. Pass --inherited to fall back to the groups above the project and then to the instance, in the order CI resolves a variable: the project first, then each parent group closest first, then instance variables.

A level that does not define the key, or that you cannot read, is skipped. Instance variables apply to every environment, so --scope does not filter them.

OPTIONS

-g, --group="" Get variable for a group.

--inherited[=false] If the key is not defined at the selected level, look in the groups above it, then in instance variables.

--jq="" Filter JSON output with a jq expression.

-F, --output="text" Format output as: text, json.

-s, --scope="" The environment_scope of the variable. Values: all (), or specific environments.

OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS

-h, --help[=false] Show help for this command.

-R, --repo="" Select another repository. You can use either OWNER/REPO or GROUP/NAMESPACE/REPO. The full URL or Git URL is also accepted.

EXAMPLE

glab variable get VAR_KEY
glab variable get -g GROUP VAR_KEY
glab variable get -s SCOPE VAR_KEY
# Read the project, then its parent groups, then the instance
glab variable get --inherited VAR_KEY
