Overview

This node operation updates the External Wiki service settings for a specific project in GitLab using the GitLab API. It is useful for automating the configuration of project services, particularly the external wiki integration, by sending a PUT request to the appropriate GitLab API endpoint with the required project ID and service configuration data.

Use Case Examples

  1. Automatically update the external wiki service settings for a GitLab project as part of a CI/CD pipeline.
  2. Manage multiple GitLab projects' external wiki configurations programmatically to ensure consistency across projects.

Properties

Output

JSON

  • response - The JSON response from the GitLab API after updating the external wiki service settings for the specified project.

Dependencies

  • GitLab API authentication credential

Troubleshooting

  • Ensure the project ID provided in the path parameters is valid and the project exists in GitLab.
  • Verify that the authentication credentials are correctly configured and have sufficient permissions to update project services.
  • Check the base URL to ensure it points to the correct GitLab instance, especially if using a self-hosted GitLab server.
  • If the API request fails, review the error message returned by the GitLab API for details on what went wrong, such as invalid parameters or insufficient permissions.
