Overview

This node operation performs an HTTP PUT request to update a namespace in the GitLab API (version 4). It is useful for modifying properties of a specific namespace identified by its ID. Common scenarios include updating namespace details such as name, path, or visibility settings in GitLab projects or groups.

Use Case Examples

  1. Updating the name or path of a GitLab namespace by specifying the namespace ID and providing the updated data in the request body.
  2. Changing the visibility level of a namespace to control access permissions.

Output

JSON

  • response - The JSON response from the GitLab API after updating the namespace, containing the updated namespace details.

Troubleshooting

  • Ensure the 'id' path parameter is correctly set to the namespace ID to avoid 404 Not Found errors.
  • Verify that the authentication credentials are valid and have sufficient permissions to update namespaces to prevent authorization errors.
  • Check the request body schema matches the expected structure for updating a namespace to avoid validation errors from the API.
