Project remote mirrors API (FREE)

Push mirrors defined on a project's repository settings are called "remote mirrors". You can query and modify the state of these mirrors with the remote mirror API.

For security reasons, the url attribute in the API response is always scrubbed of username and password information.

GET /projects/:id/remote_mirrors

Example request:

curl --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <your_access_token>" "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/42/remote_mirrors"

Example response:

Create a pull mirror

Learn how to configure a pull mirror using the Projects API.

Create a push mirror

Field mirror_branch_regex introduced in GitLab 15.8 with a flag named mirror_only_branches_match_regex. Disabled by default.

FLAG: On self-managed GitLab, by default the field mirror_branch_regex is not available. To make it available, ask an administrator to enable the feature flag named mirror_only_branches_match_regex. On GitLab.com, this feature is not available.

Push mirroring is disabled by default. To enable it, include the optional parameter enabled when you create the mirror:

POST /projects/:id/remote_mirrors

Attribute	Type	Required	Description
url	String	yes	The target URL to which the repository is mirrored.
enabled	Boolean	no	Determines if the mirror is enabled.
keep_divergent_refs	Boolean	no	Determines if divergent refs are skipped.
only_protected_branches	Boolean	no	Determines if only protected branches are mirrored.
mirror_branch_regex (PREMIUM)	String	no	Contains a regular expression. Only branches with names matching the regex are mirrored. Requires only_protected_branches to be disabled.

Example request:

curl --request POST --data "url=https://username:token@example.com/gitlab/example.git" \
     --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <your_access_token>" "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/42/remote_mirrors"

Example response:

{
    "enabled": false,
    "id": 101486,
    "last_error": null,
    "last_successful_update_at": null,
    "last_update_at": null,
    "last_update_started_at": null,
    "only_protected_branches": false,
