Can't use image from one project in another project

Hi,

I’m on gitlab.com and I need to use an image built in a private project from another private project.

However, when I go the image project’s Settings > CI/CD > Job token permissions > CI/CD job token allowlist I can’t find the other project even when I write the complete name in the search box.

It doesn’t even allow me to just paste the full path of the project.

My projects are something like this:

  • gitlab.com/my-company-group/my-customer-subgroup/another-subgroup/images/image-1
  • gitlab.com/my-company-group/my-customer-subgroup/another-subgroup/images/image-2
  • gitlab.com/my-company-group/my-customer-subgroup/another-subgroup/a-different-subgroup/my-specific-project

All projects are private (company and customer policies).

When I press “Add group or project” in “CI/CD job token allowlist”, it shows me a search combo but I type the other project name or even a group/subgroup that contains both projects, but neither of these appear in the selection (I tried “my-specific-project”, “my-customer-subgroup” and “my-company-group” to no avail.

(thanx to @paula.kokic who helped me from my first post through my complete ignorance to a more concise question she can’t reply because she’s using an older on-premise version of gitlab).

I have the exactly same issue. This used to be so easy, you would simply paste the path.
