Gitlab authentication issues #215

Closed frogatvers closed 10 months ago

frogatvers commented 10 months ago

I use Archi 5.1 with CoArchi 0.8.8 and gitlab on W10. Everything works fine from a functional point of view, but authentication is a nightmare for me.

I access gitlab with https. I need, for this, to use a Gitlab Personal Access Token (PAT). This PAT has not an unlimited expiration. After I updated the PAT, because it was expired, authentication does not work anymore.

I believe my PAT is encrypted on my laptop, with a primary key I also use. When I want to push my updates, Archi requests me to give my primary password. Before updating the expired PAT, it worked fine. But after, authentication fails at gitlab level : authentication not supported. I have in mind Archi uses my expired PAT and fails since it has changed. But I don't know how to update the PAT in Archi / coArchi configuration. I imagine, based on what is explained on collaboration configuration I don't know where is the encrypted file containing my authentication credentials. I imagine, again, that I need to delete this file to force Archi to ask me again my PAT and encrypt it again.

But I don't know how to update the PAT in Archi / coArchi configuration.

Select the model/repository in the Collaboration Workspace window and then, in the Properties window, select the Authentication tab and enter the PAT in the password field.
