Indicate that tokens show in GitLab GUI are not the entire/full tokens.

Problem to solve

Currently, when looking at the active runners we use a partial of the token as a title/identifier for each runner. In the current UI is not clear that this is just a part of the token and not the full token (for security reasons we don't show the whole token).

Intended users

  • Delaney (Development Team Lead)
  • Sasha (Software Developer)
  • Presley (Product Designer)
  • Devon (DevOps Engineer)

Further details

Solving this provides further clarity and prevents users from getting confused. See: gitlab-org/charts/gitlab-runner#115 (comment 253550209)

Proposal

Add some sort of affordance (a tooltip potentially), to indicate that this is not the full token.

What does success look like, and how can we measure that?

What is the type of buyer?
