NuGet API (FREE)

This is the API documentation for NuGet Packages.

WARNING: This API is used by the NuGet package manager client and is generally not meant for manual consumption.

For instructions on how to upload and install NuGet packages from the GitLab package registry, see the NuGet package registry documentation.

NOTE: These endpoints do not adhere to the standard API authentication methods. See the NuGet package registry documentation for details on which headers and token types are supported.

id string yes The ID or full path of the project.
package_name string yes The name of the package.
curl --user <username>:<personal_access_token> "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/1/packages/nuget/download/MyNuGetPkg/index"

Example response:

{
  "versions": [
    "1.3.0.17"
  ]
}

Download a package file

Download a NuGet package file. The metadata service provides this URL.

GET projects/:id/packages/nuget/download/:package_name/:package_version/:package_filename
Attribute Type Required Description
id string yes The ID or full path of the project.
package_name string yes The name of the package.

Write the output to a file:

curl --user <username>:<personal_access_token> "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/1/packages/nuget/download/MyNuGetPkg/1.3.0.17/mynugetpkg.1.3.0.17.nupkg" >> MyNuGetPkg.1.3.0.17.nupkg

Route prefix

For the remaining routes, there are two sets of identical routes that each make requests in different scopes:

  • Use the group-level prefix to make requests in a group's scope.

The examples in this document all use the project-level prefix.
