Overview

This node operation allows downloading export relations of a specific project from the GitLab API. It is useful for scenarios where you need to programmatically retrieve project export data, such as project backups or related export files, optionally in batches. For example, you can download a project's export relations by specifying the project ID and the relation name, and optionally control batch downloading.

Use Case Examples

Download export relations for a project by providing the project ID and relation name.
Download export relations in batches by specifying batch parameters.

Troubleshooting

Ensure the project ID and relation name are correctly specified; missing or incorrect values may cause request failures.
If authentication is enabled, verify that the GitLab API credentials are valid and have sufficient permissions.
Check the base URL if using a self-hosted GitLab instance to ensure it is correct.
For batch downloads, ensure batch parameters are correctly set to avoid incomplete or failed downloads.
