Overview

This node interacts with the GitLab API, specifically supporting the operation to get API v4 applications. It allows users to configure the base URL, HTTP method, and authentication settings to make requests to GitLab's API endpoints. This is useful for automating tasks related to GitLab applications, such as retrieving application data programmatically.

Use Case Examples

  1. Retrieve a list of GitLab applications using the GET method on the /api/v4/applications endpoint.
  2. Customize the base URL to target a self-hosted GitLab instance instead of the default gitlab.com.

Properties

Name Meaning
Skip Authentication Determines whether to skip authentication for the API request.
Authentication Specifies the authentication method to use, hidden if Skip Authentication is true.
baseUrl The base URL of the GitLab instance to which the API request is sent.
Method The HTTP method used for the API request (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, HEAD, PATCH).
Parameter Schema Hidden property for the parameter schema of the getApiV4Applications operation.
Request Body Schema Hidden property for the request body schema of the getApiV4Applications operation.
Request Path Hidden property specifying the API endpoint path for the getApiV4Applications operation.

Output

JSON

  • response - The JSON response from the GitLab API containing application data.

Dependencies

  • GitLab API credentials for authentication

Troubleshooting

  • Ensure the baseUrl is correct and accessible, especially if using a self-hosted GitLab instance.
  • If authentication is enabled, verify that the GitLab API credentials are valid and have the necessary permissions.
  • Check the HTTP method and request path to ensure they match the intended API operation.
  • Common errors may include authentication failures, incorrect endpoint paths, or network connectivity issues.
