Overview

This node interacts with the GitLab API to retrieve the trace log of a specific job within a project. It is useful for developers and DevOps engineers who want to monitor or debug CI/CD pipeline jobs by accessing their execution trace logs directly from GitLab.

Use Case Examples

  1. Fetching the trace log of a CI job to diagnose why a build failed.
  2. Retrieving job execution details for auditing or reporting purposes.
