Overview

This node operation retrieves the container registry repositories for a specific GitLab group using the GitLab API v4. It is useful for users who want to programmatically access and manage container registries associated with their GitLab groups. For example, a DevOps engineer might use this node to list all container images stored in a group's registry to automate cleanup or auditing tasks.

Use Case Examples

  1. Retrieve container registry repositories for a GitLab group by specifying the group ID and pagination parameters.
  2. Automate monitoring of container images in a GitLab group registry to ensure compliance with organizational policies.

Troubleshooting

  • Ensure the provided group ID is correct and accessible by the authenticated user to avoid authorization errors.
  • Verify that the base URL is correct and reachable to prevent connection issues.
  • Check that the API token or authentication credentials have sufficient permissions to access the container registry endpoints.
  • Common error messages include 401 Unauthorized (invalid or missing credentials), 404 Not Found (invalid group ID), and 429 Too Many Requests (rate limiting). Resolving these involves correcting credentials, verifying group ID, and respecting API rate limits.
