Overview

This node interacts with the GitLab API to retrieve information about a specific Debian distribution associated with a project. It is useful for users who need to programmatically access Debian distribution details within GitLab projects, such as automation scripts or integrations that manage project dependencies or deployment configurations.

Use Case Examples

  1. Retrieve Debian distribution details for a project by specifying the project ID and Debian codename.
  2. Automate monitoring or reporting of Debian distributions used in GitLab projects.

Properties

Name Meaning
Skip Authentication Option to skip authentication when making the API request.
Authentication Type of authentication used for the API request, defaulting to GitLab API key.
baseUrl Base URL of the GitLab instance to which the API request is sent.
Method HTTP method used for the API request, default is GET.
Path Parameters Parameters used in the API request path to specify the project and Debian distribution.

Output

JSON

  • id - The ID or URL-encoded path of the project.
  • codename - The Debian codename of the distribution.
  • distributionDetails - Details of the Debian distribution retrieved from the GitLab API.

Dependencies

  • GitLab API key credential

Troubleshooting

  • Ensure the project ID and Debian codename are correctly specified; incorrect values will result in API errors.
  • If authentication is enabled, verify that the GitLab API key is valid and has sufficient permissions to access the project and Debian distribution data.
  • Check the baseUrl if using a self-hosted GitLab instance to ensure the API endpoint is reachable.
