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 logged in user.
  • public: The project can be accessed without any authentication.

Project merge method

There are currently three options for merge_method to choose from:

  • merge: A merge commit is created for every merge, and merging is allowed as long as 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: Note: This endpoint supports keyset pagination for selected order_by options.

When simple=true or the user is unauthenticated this returns something like:

NOTE: Note: For users on GitLab Silver, Premium, or higher the marked_for_deletion_at attribute has been deprecated and will be removed in API v5 in favor of the marked_for_deletion_on attribute.

Users on GitLab Starter, Bronze, or higher will also see the approvals_before_merge parameter:

[
  {
    "id": 4,
    "description": null,
    "approvals_before_merge": 0,
    ...
  }
]

You can filter by custom attributes with:

GET /projects?custom_attributes[key]=value&custom_attributes[other_key]=other_value

Pagination limits

From GitLab 13.0, offset-based pagination will be limited to 50,000 records. Keyset pagination will be required to retrieve projects beyond this limit.

Note that keyset pagination only supports order_by=id. Other sorting options are not available.

  • From GitLab 12.6 on Premium or Silver or higher tiers, marks a project for deletion. Actual deletion happens after number of days specified in instance settings.

POST /projects/:id/uploads
Attribute Type Required Description

To upload a file from your filesystem, 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 filesystem and be preceded by @. For example:

curl --request POST --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <your_access_token>" --form "file=@dk.png" "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/5/uploads"

Returned object:

{
  "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 automatically expanded when the format in markdown is used.
