For example, if a user wants to clean up storage or remove an incorrect file upload from a project, this operation can be used to delete that upload by specifying the project ID and the upload ID.

Use Case Examples

  1. Deleting an upload from a project to free up storage space.
  2. Removing an incorrect or outdated file upload from a GitLab project.
