Can't add API key

[teameh]

Hi,

I'm trying to set up this plugin but I can't add any credentials. The dropdown stays empty.

Even after clicking the 'add' button and adding all kids of keys nothing shows up in the list.

The weird thing is that the general git plugin does recognise the credentials and works fine:

What version of Jenkins och what version of the plugin?

[teameh]

Jenkins: 2.89.4 GitLab Plugin: 1.5.5 Violation Comments to GitLab Plugin: 2.0

Are you selecting Kind as secret text when adding the credential?

[teameh]

Check. That was the only one that I didn't try yet. Thanks that worked.

However it's not clear to me what to put in the other fields:

There's no project Id defined in gitlab plugin's https://github.com/jenkinsci/gitlab-plugin#defined-variables

If I just put in the project number (270) and {gitlabMergeRequestIid} as Merge Request Iid i get:

Will comment PR https://xxxxx.xxxxx/ 270 {gitlabMergeRequestIid}
java.lang.NumberFormatException: For input string: "{gitlabMergeRequestIid}"

Yes you can hardcode project id. As an integer or a string like: tomas.bjerre85%2Fviolations-test

Ypu are missing the dollar sign in merge request iid.
