Overview

This node operation authorizes a Debian package file for a specific project in GitLab using the GitLab API. It is useful for managing package permissions within a GitLab project, particularly when you need to control access to Debian package files. For example, it can be used to authorize a specific .deb file for deployment or distribution within a project.

Use Case Examples

  1. Authorize a Debian package file named 'example_1.0.0~alpha2_amd64.deb' for project with ID '123' to control access permissions.
  2. Use this operation to manage package authorization in CI/CD pipelines or automated deployment workflows.
