Overview

This node operation deletes a project in GitLab by its ID or URL-encoded path. It is useful for automating project management tasks such as removing obsolete or completed projects from a GitLab instance. For example, it can be used in workflows that clean up projects after a certain event or condition is met.

Use Case Examples

  1. Deleting a project by its ID to free up resources.
  2. Automating project lifecycle management by removing projects no longer needed.

Troubleshooting

  • Check the base URL is correctly set to the GitLab instance you intend to manage.
