Provided token is not a UUID error with Gitlab CI

I am trying to do code coverage for a flask app in Python and uploading it on the codecov.io platform. I am trying to upload it directly via Gitlab CI, but it doesn't happen. It keeps throwing the following error:

HTTP 400
Provided token is not a UUID.

I created an account on codecov.io and connected it to my gitlab account and selected a repository to work with. I added the token as an environment variable in gitlab CI

My CI file is:

image: ubuntu:18.04

variables:
    CODECOV_TOKEN: $CODECOV_TOKEN

stages:
    - coverage
    - deploy

coverage:
    stage: coverage
    before_script:
        - apt-get -y update
        - apt-get -y install curl python3-pip python3.7 zip
        - python3.7 -m pip install --upgrade pip
        - python3.7 -V
        - pip3.7 install -r requirements.txt

    script:
        - coverage run -m pytest
        - coverage report -m

    after_script:
       - bash <(curl -s https://codecov.io/bash) -t $CODECOV_TOKEN

The error screenshot:

But, when I did bash <(curl -s https://codecov.io/bash) -t <token> from the linux terminal, it was successfully uploaded.

What is the mistake that I am doing?

Solution

  • Your screenshot of the GitLab CI/CD variables shows that the CODECOV_TOKEN variable is "protected": GitLab exports the variable only to pipelines running on protected branches and tags.

    When running your pipeline on an unprotected branch, CODECOV_TOKEN is not set, and the codecov script fails.

    To make the variable available to pipelines running on all branches, edit the variable and uncheck "Protect variable."
