Overview

This node operation updates an existing environment in a GitLab project using the GitLab API. It is useful for managing environment configurations programmatically, such as modifying environment details or settings within a specific project. For example, a DevOps engineer can automate environment updates as part of a CI/CD pipeline.

Use Case Examples

  1. Update environment details for a project by specifying the project ID and environment ID along with the new environment data in the request body.
  2. Automate environment configuration changes across multiple projects by iterating over project and environment IDs.
