Project import/export API (FREE)

Schedule an export

Start a new export.

The endpoint also accepts an upload parameter. This parameter is a hash. It contains all the necessary information to upload the exported project to a web server or to any S3-compatible platform. At the moment we only support binary data file uploads to the final server.

The upload[url] parameter is required if the upload parameter is present.

POST /projects/:id/export

Attribute	Type	Required	Description
`id`	integer/string	yes	The ID or URL-encoded path of the project owned by the authenticated user
`description`	string	no	Overrides the project description
`upload`	hash	no	Hash that contains the information to upload the exported project to a web server
`upload[url]`	string	yes	The URL to upload the project
`upload[http_method]`	string	no	The HTTP method to upload the exported project. Only `PUT` and `POST` methods allowed. Default is `PUT`

curl --request POST --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <your_access_token>" "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/1/export" \
    --data "upload[http_method]=PUT" \
    --data-urlencode "upload[url]=https://example-bucket.s3.eu-west-3.amazonaws.com/backup?X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256&X-Amz-Credential=AKIAIMBJHN2O62W8IELQ%2F20180312%2Feu-west-3%2Fs3%2Faws4_request&X-Amz-Date=20180312T110328Z&X-Amz-Expires=900&X-Amz-SignedHeaders=host&X-Amz-Signature=8413facb20ff33a49a147a0b4abcff4c8487cc33ee1f7e450c46e8f695569dbd"

{
  "message": "202 Accepted"
}

NOTE: The upload request is sent with Content-Type: application/gzip header. Ensure that your pre-signed URL includes this as part of the signature.

Export status

Get the status of export.

GET /projects/:id/export

Attribute	Type	Required	Description
`id`	integer/string	yes	The ID or URL-encoded path of the project owned by the authenticated user

curl --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <your_access_token>" "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/1/export"

Status can be one of:

none: No exports queued, started, finished, or being regenerated.
queued: The request for export is received, and is in the queue to be processed.
started: The export process has started and is in progress. It includes:
- The process of exporting.
- Actions performed on the resulting file, such as sending an email notifying the user to download the file, or uploading the exported file to a web server.
finished: After the export process has completed and the user has been notified.
regeneration_in_progress: An export file is available to download, and a request to generate a new export is in process.

_links are only present when export has finished.

created_at is the project create timestamp, not the export start time.

  }
}

Export download

Download the finished export.

GET /projects/:id/export/download

Attribute	Type	Required	Description
`id`	integer/string	yes	The ID or URL-encoded path of the project owned by the authenticated user

curl --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <your_access_token>" --remote-header-name \
     --remote-name "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/5/export/download"

ls *export.tar.gz

Import a file

POST /projects/import

Attribute	Type	Required	Description
`namespace`	integer/string	no	The ID or path of the namespace to import the project to. Defaults to the current user's namespace
`name`	string	no	The name of the project to be imported. Defaults to the path of the project if not provided
`file`	string	yes	The file to be uploaded
`path`	string	yes	Name and path for new project
`overwrite`	boolean	no	If there is a project with the same path the import overwrites it. Default to false
`override_params`	Hash	no	Supports all fields defined in the Project API

The override parameters passed take precedence over all values defined inside the export file.

To upload a file from your file system, use the --form argument. This causes cURL to post data using the header Content-Type: multipart/form-data. The file= parameter must point to a file on your file system and be preceded by @. For example:

curl --request POST --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <your_access_token>" --form "path=api-project" \
     --form "file=@/path/to/file" "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/import"

cURL doesn't support posting a file from a remote server. Importing a project from a remote server can be accomplished through something like the following:

import requests
from io import BytesIO

s3_file = requests.get(presigned_url)

url =  'https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/import'
files = {'file': ('file.tar.gz', BytesIO(s3_file.content))}
data = {
    "path": "example-project",
    "namespace": "example-group"
}
headers = {
    'Private-Token': "<your_access_token>"
}

requests.post(url, headers=headers, data=data, files=files)

{
  "id": 1,
  "description": null,
  "name": "api-project",
  "name_with_namespace": "Administrator / api-project",
  "path": "api-project",
  "path_with_namespace": "root/api-project",
  "created_at": "2018-02-13T09:05:58.023Z",
  "import_status": "scheduled",
  "correlation_id": "mezklWso3Za",
  "failed_relations": []
}

NOTE: The maximum import file size can be set by the Administrator, default is 0 (unlimited).. As an administrator, you can modify the maximum import file size. To do so, use the max_import_size option in the Application settings API or the Admin UI. Default modified from 50MB to 0 in GitLab 13.8.

Import a file from a remote object storage

Introduced in GitLab 13.12 in Beta.

This endpoint is behind a feature flag that is disabled by default.

To enable this endpoint:

Feature.enable(:import_project_from_remote_file)

To disable this endpoint:

Feature.disable(:import_project_from_remote_file)

POST /projects/remote-import

Attribute	Type	Required	Description
`namespace`	integer/string	no	The ID or path of the namespace to import the project to. Defaults to the current user's namespace.
`name`	string	no	The name of the project to import. If not provided, defaults to the path of the project.
`url`	string	yes	URL for the file to import.
`path`	string	yes	Name and path for the new project.
`overwrite`	boolean	no	Whether to overwrite a project with the same path when importing. Defaults to `false`.
`override_params`	Hash	no	Supports all fields defined in the Project API.

The passed override parameters take precedence over all values defined in the export file.

curl --request POST \
  --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <your_access_token>" \
  --header "Content-Type: application/json" \
  --url "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/remote-import" \
  --data '{"url":"https://remoteobject/file?token=123123","path":"remote-project"}'

{
  "id": 1,
  "description": null,
  "name": "remote-project",
  "name_with_namespace": "Administrator / remote-project",
  "path": "remote-project",
  "path_with_namespace": "root/remote-project",
  "created_at": "2018-02-13T09:05:58.023Z",
  "import_status": "scheduled",
  "correlation_id": "mezklWso3Za",
  "failed_relations": [],
  "import_error": null
}

The ContentType header must return a valid number. The maximum file size is 10 gigabytes. The ContentLength header must be application/gzip.

Import status

Get the status of an import.

GET /projects/:id/import

Attribute	Type	Required	Description
`id`	integer/string	yes	The ID or URL-encoded path of the project owned by the authenticated user

curl --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <your_access_token>" "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/1/import"

Status can be one of:

none
scheduled
failed
started
finished

If the status is failed, it includes the import error message under import_error. If the status is failed, started or finished, the failed_relations array might be populated with any occurrences of relations that failed to import either due to unrecoverable errors or because retries were exhausted (a typical example are query timeouts.)

NOTE: An element's id field in failed_relations references the failure record, not the relation.

NOTE: The failed_relations array is capped to 100 items.
