Overview

This node operation retrieves the pipelines associated with a specific merge request in a GitLab project using the GitLab API v4. It is useful for developers and DevOps teams who want to monitor the CI/CD pipeline status and history for merge requests in their GitLab projects. For example, it can be used to automate checks on pipeline results before merging code changes.

Use Case Examples

  1. Fetch all pipelines for a merge request to check their status before approving the merge.
  2. Integrate pipeline data into a custom dashboard to monitor merge request CI/CD progress.
