Overview

This node operation deletes a project from GitLab using the GitLab API. It is useful for automating the removal of projects by specifying the project ID or URL-encoded path. For example, it can be used in workflows to clean up old or unused projects automatically.

Use Case Examples

  1. Deleting a project by its ID to free up resources.
  2. Automating project lifecycle management by removing projects that are no longer needed.
