Projects API (FREE)
Interact with projects using the REST API.
Project visibility level
A project in GitLab can be private, internal, or public.
The visibility level is determined by the visibility field in the project.
Values for the project visibility level are:
-
private: project access must be granted explicitly to each user. -
internal: the project can be cloned by any authenticated user except external users. -
public: the project can be accessed without any authentication.
For more, read Project visibility.
Project merge method
There are three options for merge_method to choose from:
-
merge: a merge commit is created for every merge, and merging is allowed if there are no conflicts. -
rebase_merge: a merge commit is created for every merge, but merging is only allowed if fast-forward merge is possible. You can make sure that the target branch would build after this merge request builds and merges. -
ff: no merge commits are created and all merges are fast-forwarded. Merging is only allowed if the branch could be fast-forwarded.
List all projects
The
_links.cluster_agentsattribute in the response was introduced in GitLab 15.0.
Get a list of all visible projects across GitLab for the authenticated user. When accessed without authentication, only public projects with simple fields are returned.

NOTE:
For users of GitLab Premium or higher,
the marked_for_deletion_at attribute has been deprecated, and is removed

]You can filter by custom attributes with:
GET /projects?custom_attributes[key]=value&custom_attributes[other_key]=other_valueExample request:
curl --globoff --request GET "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects?custom_attributes[location]=Antarctica&custom_attributes[role]=Developer"Pagination limits
In GitLab 13.0 and later, offset-based pagination is limited to 50,000 records. Keyset pagination is required to retrieve projects beyond this limit.
Keyset pagination supports only order_by=id. Other sorting options aren't available.
List user projects
The
_links.cluster_agentsattribute in the response introduced in GitLab 14.10.
Get a list of visible projects owned by the given user. When accessed without authentication, only public projects are returned.
NOTE:
Only the projects in the user's (specified in user_id) namespace are returned. Projects owned by the user in any group or subgroups are not returned. An empty list is returned if a profile is set to private.
This endpoint supports keyset pagination
for selected order_by options.

}Delete project
This endpoint:
- Deletes a project including all associated resources (including issues and merge requests).
- In GitLab 12.6 and later, on Premium or higher tiers, delayed project deletion is applied if enabled.
- From GitLab 13.2 on Premium or higher tiers, group administrators can configure projects within a group to be deleted after a delayed period. When enabled, actual deletion happens after the number of days specified in the default deletion delay.
WARNING: The default behavior of Delayed Project deletion in GitLab 12.6 was changed to Immediate deletion in GitLab 13.2, as discussed in Enable delayed project deletion.
DELETE /projects/:id| Attribute | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
id |
integer or string | {check-circle} Yes | The ID or URL-encoded path of the project. |
Restore project marked for deletion (PREMIUM)
Introduced in GitLab 12.6.
Restores project marked for deletion.
POST /projects/:id/restore| Attribute | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
id |
integer or string | {check-circle} Yes | The ID or URL-encoded path of the project. |
Upload a file
Uploads a file to the specified project to be used in an issue or merge request description, or a comment. GitLab versions 14.0 and later enforce this limit.
POST /projects/:id/uploads| Attribute | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
file |
string | {check-circle} Yes | The file to be uploaded. |
id |
integer or string | {check-circle} Yes | The ID or URL-encoded path of the project. |
To upload a file from your file system, use the --form argument. This causes
cURL to post data using the header Content-Type: multipart/form-data. The
file= parameter must point to a file on your file system and be preceded by
@. For example:
curl --request POST --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <your_access_token>" \
--form "file=@dk.png" "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/5/uploads"Returned object:
{
"alt": "dk",
"url": "/uploads/66dbcd21ec5d24ed6ea225176098d52b/dk.png",
"full_path": "/namespace1/project1/uploads/66dbcd21ec5d24ed6ea225176098d52b/dk.png",
"markdown": ""
}The returned url is relative to the project path. The returned full_path is
the absolute path to the file. In Markdown contexts, the link is expanded when
the format in markdown is used.
Max attachment size enforcement
Introduced in GitLab 13.11.
GitLab 13.11 added enforcement of the maximum attachment size limit behind the enforce_max_attachment_size_upload_api feature flag. GitLab 14.0 enables this by default.
To disable this enforcement:
In Omnibus installations:
-
Enter the Rails console:
sudo gitlab-rails console -
Disable the feature flag:
Feature.disable(:enforce_max_attachment_size_upload_api)
In installations from source:
-
Enter the Rails console:
cd /home/git/gitlab sudo -u git -H bundle exec rails console -e production -
Disable the feature flag:
Feature.disable(:enforce_max_attachment_size_upload_api)
Upload a project avatar
Uploads an avatar to the specified project.

avatar |
string | {check-circle} Yes | The file to be uploaded. |
id |
integer or string | {check-circle} Yes | The ID or URL-encoded path of the project. |
To upload an avatar from your file system, use the --form argument. This causes
cURL to post data using the header Content-Type: multipart/form-data. The
file= parameter must point to an image file on your file system and be
preceded by @. For example:
Example request:
curl --request PUT --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <your_access_token>" \
