External Status Checks API (ULTIMATE)

List status checks for a merge request

For a single merge request, list the external status checks that apply to it and their status.

GET /projects/:id/merge_requests/:merge_request_iid/status_checks

Parameters:

Attribute Type Required Description
id integer yes ID of a project
merge_request_iid integer yes IID of a merge request
[
    {
        "id": 2,
        "name": "Rule 1",
        "external_url": "https://gitlab.com/test-endpoint",
        "status": "pass"
    },
    {
        "id": 1,
        "name": "Rule 2",

    }
]

Set status of an external status check

  • Introduced in GitLab 14.9, passed status to pass external status checks. Introduced with a flag named status_checks_add_status_field. Disabled by default.
  • Introduced in GitLab 14.9, failed status to fail external status checks. Introduced with a flag named status_checks_add_status_field. Disabled by default.
  • pass status to pass checks is deprecated in GitLab 14.9. Replaced with passed.

FLAG: On self-managed GitLab, by default setting passed instead of pass is unavailable. Also, setting failed is unavailable by default. To support setting passed and failed instead of only pass, ask an administrator to enable the feature flag named status_checks_add_status_field. On GitLab.com, this feature is not available.

For a single merge request, use the API to inform GitLab that a merge request has passed a check by an external service. To set the status of an external check, the personal access token used must belong to a user with at least the Developer role on the target project of the merge request.

Execute this API call as any user with rights to approve the merge request itself.

POST /projects/:id/merge_requests/:merge_request_iid/status_check_responses

Parameters:

Attribute Type Required Description
id integer yes ID of a project
merge_request_iid integer yes IID of a merge request
sha string yes SHA at HEAD of the source branch
external_status_check_id integer yes ID of an external status check
status string no Set to passed to pass the check or failed to fail it (GitLab 14.9 and later with feature flag status_checks_add_status_field enabled)
status string no Set to pass to pass the check (GitLab 14.0 to GitLab 14.8, and GitLab 14.9 and later with feature flag status_checks_add_status_field disabled)

NOTE: sha must be the SHA at the HEAD of the merge request's source branch.
