Overview

This node operation performs a PUT request to the GitLab API endpoint for managing NuGet packages within a specific project. It is used to update or upload NuGet packages to a GitLab project by specifying the project ID and providing the package data in the request body. This operation is beneficial for automating package management workflows in CI/CD pipelines or project maintenance tasks where NuGet packages need to be programmatically updated or added.

Use Case Examples

  1. Updating a NuGet package in a GitLab project as part of a build pipeline.
  2. Uploading a new version of a NuGet package to a GitLab project repository automatically after successful tests.
