Description
I need to setup openqa from scratch and run into an issue which is not easy to find the reason.
zaoliang@quake1:~> sudo openqa-clone-custom-git-refspec -v https://github.com/os-autoinst/os-autoinst-distri-opensuse/pull/17504 https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/3461697 --apikey F5DEEB04FA524E0C --apisecret 5F150614E484ACCB
[sudo] Passwort für root:
/usr/bin/openqa-clone-custom-git-refspec: unrecognized option '--apikey'
/usr/bin/openqa-clone-custom-git-refspec: unrecognized option '--apisecret'
Usage:
openqa-clone-custom-git-refspec <github_pr_url> <openqa_job_url> [CUSTOM_TEST_VAR_1=foo] [CUSTOM_TEST_VAR_2=bar] ...
openqa-clone-custom-git-refspec <github_branch_url> <openqa_job_url> [CUSTOM_TEST_VAR_1=foo] [CUSTOM_TEST_VAR_2=bar] ...
Options:
-v, --verbose execute with verbose output
-h, -?, --help display this help
-n, --dry-run execute in dry-run mode, do not clone any openQA jobs
-c --clone-job-args pass additional parameters to 'openqa-clone-job', e.g. '--clone-job-args="--show-progress"'.
The default parameters are '--skip-chained-deps --parental-inheritance --within-instance' defined in the env variable $clone_args.

You need to set the environment variable GITHUB_TOKEN to use authenticated requests.
The problem is access permission of /etc/openqa/client.conf. At least user should be read it.
The information about GITHUB_TOKEN is not useful and not relevant or even misleading in this case.
After I change the read permission, I can execute the command without any issue.

You need to pass the api arguments as additional parameters for openqa-clone-job.

I now read your comment
The problem is access permission of /etc/openqa/client.conf. At least user should be read it.
It was not easy to see because the help output wasn't formatted or quoted.
Yes, if the client.conf exists, but is not readable, we should at least output a warning.
Setting back to new for now.

The command you pasted definitely runs into an issue because you cannot specify openqa-clone-job parameters this way. Follow what @tinita wrote in #133520#note-2. If that works you should at least be one step further.
Of course you should normally be able to completely leave out these parameters and rely on credentials in config files. Note that /etc/openqa/client.conf is normally only supposed to be readable by _openqa-worker for security reasons. I suppose it is recommend to put the credentials in the file ~/.config/openqa/client.conf instead which can/should be readable by your normal user you also invoke openqa-clone-job or openqa-clone-custom-git-refspec with.

yes, this is fine with ~/.config/openqa/client.conf, thanks!
