Overview

This node operation allows users to unapprove a specific merge request in a GitLab project. It is useful in scenarios where a previously given approval on a merge request needs to be revoked, such as when changes are required or the approval was given in error. For example, a developer or project maintainer can use this operation to unapprove a merge request identified by its project ID and merge request IID.

Use Case Examples

  1. Unapprove a merge request in a GitLab project to revoke approval before merging.
  2. Revoke approval on a merge request when additional changes are requested.

Troubleshooting

  • Ensure the project ID and merge request IID are correct and exist in the GitLab instance.
  • Verify that the authentication credentials are valid and have sufficient permissions to unapprove merge requests.
  • Check the base URL to ensure it points to the correct GitLab instance if using a self-hosted GitLab server.
