Display verification token on streaming audit event destination screen
Release notes
Problem to solve
Users today use the verificationToken
value in our API to confirm that the audit events being sent from GitLab are valid and not from an alternate source impersonating GitLab. However, this value is only available through the API. If a user wants to use the UI, they can't see this token and must rely on the API. This introduces an extra step and reduces the value of the UI.
Proposal
Add the verification token to the streaming audit events UI.
Design
