Overview

This node interacts with the GitLab API to create a new asset link for a specific release in a GitLab project. It is useful for automating the management of release assets, such as adding downloadable links to release notes. For example, it can be used in CI/CD pipelines to automatically attach build artifacts or documentation links to a release tag.

Use Case Examples

Manage release assets by programmatically adding or updating links associated with a release tag in a GitLab project.
