Overview

This node interacts with the GitLab API to retrieve metadata about NuGet packages for a specific group. It is useful for automating the retrieval of package metadata in CI/CD pipelines or for managing package repositories programmatically. For example, it can be used to fetch NuGet package metadata from a GitLab group to integrate with other tools or workflows.

Use Case Examples

  1. Fetch NuGet package metadata for a group to automate package management.
  2. Integrate GitLab NuGet package metadata retrieval into a CI/CD pipeline for version tracking.
