# GitLab CI API
## Purpose
Main purpose of GitLab CI API is to provide necessary data and context for
GitLab CI Runners.
For consumer API take a look at this [documentation](../../api/README.md) where
you will find all relevant information.
## API Prefix
Current CI API prefix is `/ci/api/v1`.
You need to prepend this prefix to all examples in this documentation, like:
GET /ci/api/v1/builds/:id/artifacts
## Resources
- [Builds](builds.md)
- [Runners](runners.md)

# Builds API
API used by runners to receive and update builds.
>**Note:**
This API is intended to be used only by Runners as their own
communication channel. For the consumer API see the
[Builds API](../builds.md).
## Authentication
This API uses two types of authentication:
1. Unique Runner's token which is the token assigned to the Runner after it
has been registered.
2. Using the build authorization token.
This is project's CI token that can be found under the **Builds** section of
a project's settings. The build authorization token can be passed as a
parameter or a value of `BUILD-TOKEN` header.
These two methods of authentication are interchangeable.
## Builds
### Runs oldest pending build by runner
```
POST /ci/api/v1/builds/register
```
| Attribute | Type | Required | Description |
|-----------|---------|----------|---------------------|
| `token` | string | yes | Unique runner token |
```
curl -X POST "https://gitlab.example.com/ci/api/v1/builds/register" -F "token=t0k3n"
```
### Update details of an existing build
```
PUT /ci/api/v1/builds/:id
```
| Attribute | Type | Required | Description |
|-----------|---------|----------|----------------------|
| `id` | integer | yes | The ID of a project |
| `token` | string | yes | Unique runner token |
| `state` | string | no | The state of a build |
| `trace` | string | no | The trace of a build |
```
curl -X PUT "https://gitlab.example.com/ci/api/v1/builds/1234" -F "token=t0k3n" -F "state=running" -F "trace=Running git clone...\n"
```
### Incremental build trace update
Using this method you need to send trace content as a request body. You also need to provide the `Content-Range` header
with a range of sent trace part. Note that you need to send parts in the proper order, so the begining of the part
must start just after the end of the previous part. If you provide the wrong part, then GitLab CI API will return `416
Range Not Satisfiable` response with a header `Range: 0-X`, where `X` is the current trace length.
For example, if you receive `Range: 0-11` in the response, then your next part must contain a `Content-Range: 11-...`
header and a trace part covered by this range.
For a valid update API will return `202` response with:
* `Build-Status: {status}` header containing current status of the build,
* `Range: 0-{length}` header with the current trace length.
```
PATCH /ci/api/v1/builds/:id/trace.txt
```
Parameters:
| Attribute | Type | Required | Description |
|-----------|---------|----------|----------------------|
| `id` | integer | yes | The ID of a build |
Headers:
| Attribute | Type | Required | Description |
|-----------------|---------|----------|-----------------------------------|
| `BUILD-TOKEN` | string | yes | The build authorization token |
| `Content-Range` | string | yes | Bytes range of trace that is sent |
```
curl -X PATCH "https://gitlab.example.com/ci/api/v1/builds/1234/trace.txt" -H "BUILD-TOKEN=build_t0k3n" -H "Content-Range=0-21" -d "Running git clone...\n"
```
### Upload artifacts to build
```
POST /ci/api/v1/builds/:id/artifacts
```
| Attribute | Type | Required | Description |
|-----------|---------|----------|-------------------------------|
| `id` | integer | yes | The ID of a build |
| `token` | string | yes | The build authorization token |
| `file` | mixed | yes | Artifacts file |
```
curl -X POST "https://gitlab.example.com/ci/api/v1/builds/1234/artifacts" -F "token=build_t0k3n" -F "file=@/path/to/file"
```
### Download the artifacts file from build
```
GET /ci/api/v1/builds/:id/artifacts
```
| Attribute | Type | Required | Description |
|-----------|---------|----------|-------------------------------|
| `id` | integer | yes | The ID of a build |
