Use Case Examples

  1. Fetch the NuGet package index for a group by providing the group ID or full group path to automate package retrieval in a DevOps pipeline.
  2. Use in a workflow to monitor or audit NuGet packages available in a GitLab group repository.

Output

JSON

  • response - The JSON response from the GitLab API containing the NuGet package index data for the specified group.

Dependencies

  • GitLab API key credential for authentication

Troubleshooting

  • Ensure the 'id' path parameter is correctly set to a valid group ID or full group path; otherwise, the API request will fail.
  • If authentication is required and skipped, the request may be unauthorized; verify the 'Skip Authentication' setting.
  • Check the baseUrl if using a self-hosted GitLab instance to ensure the correct API endpoint is targeted.
  • Common error messages include 401 Unauthorized (authentication issues), 404 Not Found (invalid group ID or path), and 500 Internal Server Error (server issues).
