Epics API (ULTIMATE)

Every API call to epic must be authenticated.

If a user is not a member of a group and the group is private, a GET request on that group will result to a 404 status code.

If epics feature is not available a 403 status code will be returned.

Epic issues API

The epic issues API allows you to interact with issues associated with an epic.

Milestone dates integration

Introduced in GitLab 11.3.

Since start date and due date can be dynamically sourced from related issue milestones, when user has edit permission, additional fields will be shown. These include two boolean fields start_date_is_fixed and due_date_is_fixed, and four date fields start_date_fixed, start_date_from_milestones, due_date_fixed and due_date_from_milestones.

end_date has been deprecated in favor of due_date.

Epics pagination

By default, GET requests return 20 results at a time because the API results are paginated.

List epics for a group
