Overview

This node operation retrieves a specific project upload file from GitLab using the GitLab API v4. It requires the project ID, a 32-character secret associated with the upload, and the filename of the upload. This operation is useful for accessing files uploaded to a GitLab project, such as artifacts or attachments, by specifying their unique identifiers.

Use Case Examples

  1. Fetching a project upload file by providing the project ID, secret, and filename to download or process the file within an automation workflow.
  2. Automating the retrieval of project upload files for backup or analysis purposes.
