# Projects API
## Project visibility level
Project in GitLab can be either private, internal or public.
This is determined by the `visibility` field in the project.
Values for the project visibility level are:
- `private`: project access must be granted explicitly for each user.
- `internal`: the project can be cloned by any signed-in user except [external users](../user/permissions.md#external-users).
- `public`: the project can be accessed without any authentication.
## Project merge method
There are three options for `merge_method` to choose from:
- `merge`: a merge commit is created for every merge, and merging is allowed if
there are no conflicts.
- `rebase_merge`: a merge commit is created for every merge, but merging is only
allowed if fast-forward merge is possible. This way you could make sure that
if this merge request would build, after merging to target branch it would
also build.
- `ff`: no merge commits are created and all merges are fast-forwarded, which
means that merging is only allowed if the branch could be fast-forwarded.
## List all projects
Get a list of all visible projects across GitLab for the authenticated user.
When accessed without authentication, only public projects with _simple_ fields
are returned.

NOTE:
For users of GitLab [Silver, Premium, or higher](https://about.gitlab.com/pricing/),
the `marked_for_deletion_at` attribute has been deprecated, and is removed
in API v5 in favor of the `marked_for_deletion_on` attribute.
Users of GitLab [Starter, Bronze, or higher](https://about.gitlab.com/pricing/)
can also see the `approvals_before_merge` parameter:
```json
[
{
"id": 4,
"description": null,
"approvals_before_merge": 0,
...
}
]
```
You can filter by [custom attributes](custom_attributes.md) with:
```plaintext
GET /projects?custom_attributes[key]=value&custom_attributes[other_key]=other_value
```
### Pagination limits
In GitLab 13.0 and later, [offset-based pagination](README.md#offset-based-pagination)
is [limited to 50,000 records](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/34565).
[Keyset pagination](README.md#keyset-based-pagination) is required to retrieve
projects beyond this limit.
Keyset pagination supports only `order_by=id`. Other sorting options aren't available.
## List user projects
Get a list of visible projects owned by the given user. When accessed without
authentication, only public projects are returned.
This endpoint supports [keyset pagination](README.md#keyset-based-pagination)
for selected `order_by` options.

## Delete project
This endpoint:
- Deletes a project including all associated resources (including issues and
merge requests).
- From [GitLab 13.2](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/220382) on
[Premium or Silver](https://about.gitlab.com/pricing/) or higher tiers, group
admins can [configure](../user/group/index.md#enabling-delayed-project-removal)
projects within a group to be deleted after a delayed period. When enabled,
actual deletion happens after the number of days specified in the
[default deletion delay](../user/admin_area/settings/visibility_and_access_controls.md#default-deletion-delay).
WARNING:
The default behavior of [Delayed Project deletion](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/32935)
in GitLab 12.6 was changed to [Immediate deletion](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/220382)
in GitLab 13.2, as discussed in [Enabling delayed project removal](../user/group/index.md#enabling-delayed-project-removal).
```plaintext
DELETE /projects/:id
```
| Attribute | Type | Required | Description |
|-----------|----------------|------------------------|-------------|
| `id` | integer/string | **{check-circle}** Yes | The ID or [URL-encoded path of the project](README.md#namespaced-path-encoding). |
## Restore project marked for deletion **(PREMIUM)**
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/32935) in GitLab 12.6.
Restores project marked for deletion.
```plaintext
POST /projects/:id/restore
```
| Attribute | Type | Required | Description |
|-----------|----------------|------------------------|-------------|
| `id` | integer/string | **{check-circle}** Yes | The ID or [URL-encoded path of the project](README.md#namespaced-path-encoding). |
## Upload a file
Uploads a file to the specified project to be used in an issue or merge request
description, or a comment.
```plaintext
POST /projects/:id/uploads
```
| Attribute | Type | Required | Description |
|-----------|----------------|------------------------|-------------|
| `file` | string | **{check-circle}** Yes | The file to be uploaded. |
| `id` | integer/string | **{check-circle}** Yes | The ID or [URL-encoded path of the project](README.md#namespaced-path-encoding). |
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:
```shell
curl --request POST --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <your_access_token>" --form "file=@dk.png" "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/5/uploads"
```
Returned object:
```json
{
"alt": "dk",
"url": "/uploads/66dbcd21ec5d24ed6ea225176098d52b/dk.png",
"full_path": "/namespace1/project1/uploads/66dbcd21ec5d24ed6ea225176098d52b/dk.png",
"markdown": "![dk](/uploads/66dbcd21ec5d24ed6ea225176098d52b/dk.png)"
}
```
The returned `url` is relative to the project path. The returned `full_path` is
the absolute path to the file. In Markdown contexts, the link is expanded when
the format in `markdown` is used.
## Upload a project avatar

| `id` | integer/string | **{check-circle}** Yes | The ID or [URL-encoded path of the project](README.md#namespaced-path-encoding). |
To upload an avatar 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 an image file on your file system and be
preceded by `@`. For example:
Example request:
```shell
curl --request PUT --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <your_access_token>" --form "avatar=@dk.png" "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/5"
```
Returned object:

## Configure pull mirroring for a project **(STARTER)**
> Introduced in [GitLab Starter](https://about.gitlab.com/pricing/) 11.2.
Configure pull mirroring while [creating a new project](#create-project) or [updating an existing project](#edit-project) using the API if the remote repository is publicly accessible or via `username/password` authentication. In case your HTTP repository is not publicly accessible, you can add the authentication information to the URL: `https://username:password@gitlab.company.com/group/project.git`, where password is a [personal access token](../user/profile/personal_access_tokens.md) with the API scope enabled.
The relevant API parameters to update are:
- `import_url`: URL of remote repository being mirrored (with `username:password` if needed).
- `mirror`: Enables pull mirroring on project when set to `true`.
- `only_mirror_protected_branches`: Set to `true` for protected branches.
## Start the pull mirroring process for a Project **(STARTER)**
> Introduced in [GitLab Starter](https://about.gitlab.com/pricing/) 10.3.
```plaintext
POST /projects/:id/mirror/pull
```
| Attribute | Type | Required | Description |
|-----------|----------------|------------------------|-------------|
| `id` | integer/string | **{check-circle}** Yes | The ID or [URL-encoded path of the project](README.md#namespaced-path-encoding). |
```shell
curl --request POST --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <your_access_token>" "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/:id/mirror/pull"
```
## Project badges
Read more in the [Project Badges](project_badges.md) documentation.
## Issue and merge request description templates
The non-default [issue and merge request description templates](../user/project/description_templates.md)
are managed inside the project's repository. So you can manage them with the API
through the [Repositories API](repositories.md) and the [Repository Files API](repository_files.md).
## Download snapshot of a Git repository
> Introduced in GitLab 10.7
This endpoint may only be accessed by an administrative user.
Download a snapshot of the project (or wiki, if requested) Git repository. This
snapshot is always in uncompressed [tar](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tar_(computing))
format.
If a repository is corrupted to the point where `git clone` doesn't work, the
snapshot may allow some of the data to be retrieved.
```plaintext
GET /projects/:id/snapshot
```
| Attribute | Type | Required | Description |
|-----------|----------------|------------------------|-------------|
| `id` | integer/string | **{check-circle}** Yes | The ID or [URL-encoded path of the project](README.md#namespaced-path-encoding). |
| `wiki` | boolean | **{dotted-circle}** No | Whether to download the wiki, rather than project, repository. |
