# Project import/export API **(FREE)**
2018-03-27 19:54:05 +05:30
2020-06-23 00:09:42 +05:30
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/-/issues/41899) in GitLab 10.6.

## Schedule an export
Start a new export.
2021-09-04 01:27:46 +05:30
The endpoint also accepts an `upload` parameter. This parameter is a hash. It contains
2018-05-09 12:01:36 +05:30
all the necessary information to upload the exported project to a web server or
to any S3-compatible platform. At the moment we only support binary
data file uploads to the final server.
2020-03-13 15:44:24 +05:30
From GitLab 10.7, the `upload[url]` parameter is required if the `upload` parameter is present.

NOTE:
2021-04-17 20:07:23 +05:30
The upload request is sent with `Content-Type: application/gzip` header. Ensure that your pre-signed URL includes this as part of the signature.

2018-03-27 19:54:05 +05:30

2020-03-13 15:44:24 +05:30
Status can be one of:
2021-09-04 01:27:46 +05:30
- `none`: No exports _queued_, _started_, _finished_, or _being regenerated_.
- `queued`: The request for export is received, and is in the queue to be processed.
- `started`: The export process has started and is in progress. It includes:
- The process of exporting.
- Actions performed on the resulting file, such as sending an email notifying
the user to download the file, or uploading the exported file to a web server.
- `finished`: After the export process has completed and the user has been notified.
- `regeneration_in_progress`: An export file is available to download, and a request to generate a new export is in process.
2020-11-24 15:15:51 +05:30
2018-03-27 19:54:05 +05:30
`_links` are only present when export has finished.
2020-11-24 15:15:51 +05:30
`created_at` is the project create timestamp, not the export start time.

## Import a file
2020-05-24 23:13:21 +05:30
```plaintext
2018-03-27 19:54:05 +05:30
POST /projects/import
```
| Attribute | Type | Required | Description |
| --------- | -------------- | -------- | ---------------------------------------- |
2021-04-17 20:07:23 +05:30
| `namespace` | integer/string | no | The ID or path of the namespace to import the project to. Defaults to the current user's namespace |
2019-12-21 20:55:43 +05:30
| `name` | string | no | The name of the project to be imported. Defaults to the path of the project if not provided |
2018-03-27 19:54:05 +05:30
| `file` | string | yes | The file to be uploaded |
| `path` | string | yes | Name and path for new project |
2021-04-17 20:07:23 +05:30
| `overwrite` | boolean | no | If there is a project with the same path the import overwrites it. Default to false |
2018-10-15 14:42:47 +05:30
| `override_params` | Hash | no | Supports all fields defined in the [Project API](projects.md) |
2018-05-09 12:01:36 +05:30
2021-04-17 20:07:23 +05:30
The override parameters passed take precedence over all values defined inside the export file.
2018-03-27 19:54:05 +05:30
2018-10-15 14:42:47 +05:30
To upload a file from your file system, use the `--form` argument. This causes
2018-03-27 19:54:05 +05:30
cURL to post data using the header `Content-Type: multipart/form-data`.
2018-10-15 14:42:47 +05:30
The `file=` parameter must point to a file on your file system and be preceded
2018-03-27 19:54:05 +05:30
by `@`. For example:
2020-03-13 15:44:24 +05:30
```shell
2021-09-04 01:27:46 +05:30
curl --request POST --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <your_access_token>" --form "path=api-project" \
--form "file=@/path/to/file" "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/import"
2018-03-27 19:54:05 +05:30
```
2018-11-18 11:00:15 +05:30
cURL doesn't support posting a file from a remote server. Importing a project from a remote server can be accomplished through something like the following:
```python
import requests
2019-12-21 20:55:43 +05:30
from io import BytesIO
2018-11-18 11:00:15 +05:30
2019-12-21 20:55:43 +05:30
s3_file = requests.get(presigned_url)
2018-11-18 11:00:15 +05:30
url = 'https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/import'
2019-12-21 20:55:43 +05:30
files = {'file': ('file.tar.gz', BytesIO(s3_file.content))}
2018-11-18 11:00:15 +05:30
data = {
"path": "example-project",
"namespace": "example-group"
}
headers = {
2019-02-15 15:39:39 +05:30
'Private-Token': "<your_access_token>"
2018-11-18 11:00:15 +05:30
}
requests.post(url, headers=headers, data=data, files=files)
```
2018-03-27 19:54:05 +05:30
```json
{
"id": 1,

"name": "api-project",
"name_with_namespace": "Administrator / api-project",

"path_with_namespace": "root/api-project",

2018-03-27 19:54:05 +05:30
}
```
2021-02-22 17:27:13 +05:30
NOTE:
2021-03-08 18:12:59 +05:30
The maximum import file size can be set by the Administrator, default is `0` (unlimited)..
2021-03-11 19:13:27 +05:30
As an administrator, you can modify the maximum import file size. To do so, use the `max_import_size` option in the [Application settings API](settings.md#change-application-settings) or the [Admin UI](../user/admin_area/settings/account_and_limit_settings.md). Default [modified](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/251106) from 50MB to 0 in GitLab 13.8.

```shell
curl --request POST \

## Import status
Get the status of an import.
2020-05-24 23:13:21 +05:30

```
| Attribute | Type | Required | Description |
| --------- | -------------- | -------- | ---------------------------------------- |
2021-09-30 23:02:18 +05:30
| `id` | integer/string | yes | The ID or [URL-encoded path of the project](index.md#namespaced-path-encoding) owned by the authenticated user |
2018-03-27 19:54:05 +05:30
2020-03-13 15:44:24 +05:30
```shell
2020-06-23 00:09:42 +05:30
curl --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <your_access_token>" "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/1/import"
2018-03-27 19:54:05 +05:30
```
2020-03-13 15:44:24 +05:30
Status can be one of:
- `none`
- `scheduled`
- `failed`
- `started`
- `finished`
2018-03-27 19:54:05 +05:30
2021-04-17 20:07:23 +05:30
If the status is `failed`, it includes the import error message under `import_error`.
2020-04-22 19:07:51 +05:30
If the status is `failed`, `started` or `finished`, the `failed_relations` array might
be populated with any occurrences of relations that failed to import either due to
unrecoverable errors or because retries were exhausted (a typical example are query timeouts.)
2021-02-22 17:27:13 +05:30
NOTE:
2020-04-22 19:07:51 +05:30
An element's `id` field in `failed_relations` references the failure record, not the relation.
2021-02-22 17:27:13 +05:30
NOTE:
2021-09-04 01:27:46 +05:30
The `failed_relations` array is capped to 100 items.
