Overview

This node operation allows resending a specific event log for a project hook in GitLab. It is useful for developers or DevOps engineers who want to retry webhook event deliveries that may have failed or need to be reprocessed. For example, if a webhook event did not reach its destination due to a network issue, this operation can resend that event without needing to recreate the hook or event.

Use Case Examples

  1. Resend a failed webhook event for a project to ensure the receiving service processes it.
  2. Retry delivery of a specific hook event log to debug webhook integrations.

Properties

Name Meaning
Skip Authentication Whether to skip authentication for the request.
Authentication The authentication method used for the request, typically an API key credential for GitLab.
baseUrl The base URL of the GitLab instance, defaulting to https://gitlab.com.
Method The HTTP method used for the request, default is GET but POST is used for this operation.
Path Parameters The path parameters required to identify the project, hook, and specific hook event log to resend.

Output

JSON

  • response - The response from the GitLab API after resending the hook event log, typically containing status and details of the resend operation.

Dependencies

  • GitLab API authentication credential

Troubleshooting

  • Ensure the project ID, hook ID, and hook log ID are correct and exist in GitLab to avoid 404 errors.
  • Check that the API authentication token has sufficient permissions to access project hooks and resend events.
  • If skipping authentication, ensure the GitLab instance allows unauthenticated requests for this operation, otherwise it will fail.
