Discussions API (FREE)
Discussions are a set of related notes on:
- Snippets
- Issues
- Epics (ULTIMATE)
- Merge requests
- Commits
This includes system notes, which are notes about changes to the object (for example, when a milestone changes, a corresponding system note is added). Label notes are not part of this API, but recorded as separate events in resource label events.
Discussions pagination
By default, GET
requests return 20 results at a time because the API results are paginated.
Read more on pagination.
Issues
List project issue discussion items
Gets a list of all discussion items for a single issue.

Attribute | Type | Required | Description |
