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. -
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 Premium or higher,
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 Premium or higher
can also see the approvals_before_merge parameter:

]You can filter by custom attributes with:
GET /projects?custom_attributes[key]=value&custom_attributes[other_key]=other_valuePagination limits
In GitLab 13.0 and later, offset-based pagination is limited to 50,000 records. Keyset pagination is required to retrieve projects beyond this limit.
Keyset pagination supports only order_by=id. Other sorting options aren't available.

}Delete project
This endpoint:
- Deletes a project including all associated resources (including issues and merge requests).
- From GitLab 13.2 on Premium or higher tiers, group admins can configure 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.
WARNING: The default behavior of Delayed Project deletion in GitLab 12.6 was changed to Immediate deletion in GitLab 13.2, as discussed in Enable delayed project removal.
DELETE /projects/:id| Attribute | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
id |
integer/string | {check-circle} Yes | The ID or URL-encoded path of the project. |
Restore project marked for deletion (PREMIUM)
Introduced in GitLab 12.6.
Restores project marked for deletion.
POST /projects/:id/restore| Attribute | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
id |
integer/string | {check-circle} Yes | The ID or URL-encoded path of the project. |
Upload a file

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. |
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:
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": ""
}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.
Max attachment size enforcement
Introduced in GitLab 13.11.
GitLab 13.11 added enforcement of the maximum attachment size limit behind the enforce_max_attachment_size_upload_api feature flag. GitLab 14.0 will enable this by default.
In Omnibus installations:
-
Enter the Rails console:
sudo gitlab-rails console -
Enable the feature flag:
Feature.enable(:enforce_max_attachment_size_upload_api)
In installations from source:
-
Enter the Rails console:
cd /home/git/gitlab sudo -u git -H bundle exec rails console -e production -
Enable the feature flag to disable the validation:
Feature.enable(:enforce_max_attachment_size_upload_api)

preceded by @. For example:
Example request:
curl --request PUT --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <your_access_token>" --form "avatar=@dk.png" "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/5"Returned object:

The relevant API parameters to update are:
-
import_url: URL of remote repository being mirrored (withusername:passwordif needed). -
mirror: Enables pull mirroring on project when set totrue. -
only_mirror_protected_branches: Set totruefor protected branches.
