Overview

This node operation deletes a specific container registry protection repository rule from a GitLab project. It is useful for managing container registry security by removing protection rules that are no longer needed or need to be updated. For example, a DevOps engineer might use this node to automate the cleanup of outdated protection rules in their CI/CD pipeline.

Use Case Examples

  1. Deleting a container registry protection rule by specifying the project ID and the protection rule ID to maintain security policies.
  2. Automating the removal of protection rules during project decommissioning or restructuring.
