Overview

This node operation updates the Datadog integration settings for a specific GitLab project using the GitLab API. It is useful for automating the configuration of Datadog monitoring within GitLab projects, allowing users to programmatically manage integration settings without manual intervention. For example, a DevOps engineer can use this node to enable or modify Datadog integration for multiple projects in a CI/CD pipeline.

Use Case Examples

  1. Updating Datadog integration settings for a GitLab project by specifying the project ID and the desired configuration in the request body.
  2. Automating the management of monitoring integrations across multiple GitLab projects.

Properties

Name Meaning
Skip Authentication Whether to skip authentication for the API request (boolean). Defaults to false.
Authentication Type of authentication used for the API request, hidden and defaults to GitLab API key authentication.
baseUrl Base URL of the GitLab instance to which the API request is sent. Defaults to https://gitlab.com.
Method HTTP method used for the API request. Defaults to GET but for this operation it is PUT.
Parameter Schema Schema defining the required path parameter 'id' (project ID) and the request body schema for the Datadog integration update. Hidden from user input.
Request Body Schema Schema for the request body containing Datadog integration settings. Hidden from user input.
Request Path API endpoint path for updating Datadog integration of a project, with a placeholder for project ID. Hidden from user input.
Path Parameters Collection of path parameters, specifically the 'id' which is the project ID to identify the GitLab project to update.

Output

JSON

  • response - The JSON response from the GitLab API after updating the Datadog integration settings.

Dependencies

  • GitLab API key credential for authentication

Troubleshooting

  • Ensure the project ID provided in the path parameters is correct and the project exists in GitLab.
  • Verify that the GitLab API key credential has sufficient permissions to update project integrations.
  • Check that the request body schema matches the expected format for Datadog integration settings to avoid validation errors.
  • If authentication is skipped, the API request will likely fail due to lack of authorization.
