Every API call to merge requests must be authenticated.
Important notes:
-
Introduced in GitLab 12.8, the mergeability (
merge_status
) of each merge request is checked asynchronously when a request is made to this endpoint. Poll this API endpoint to get updated status. This affects thehas_conflicts
property as it is dependent on themerge_status
. It returnsfalse
unlessmerge_status
iscannot_be_merged
. -
Introduced in GitLab 13.0, listing merge requests may not proactively update
merge_status
(which also affects thehas_conflicts
), as this can be an expensive operation. If you need the value of these fields from this endpoint, set thewith_merge_status_recheck
parameter totrue
in the query. -
references.relative
is relative to the group or project that the merge request is being requested. When the merge request is fetched from its project,relative
format would be the same asshort
format, and when requested across groups or projects, it is expected to be the same asfull
format. -
If
approvals_before_merge
is not provided, it inherits the value from the target project. If provided, the following conditions must hold for it to take effect:- The target project's
approvals_before_merge
must be greater than zero. A value of zero disables approvals for that project. - The provided value of
approvals_before_merge
must be greater than the target project'sapprovals_before_merge
.
This API returns
HTTP 201 Created
for a successful response. - The target project's
-
Introduced in GitLab 13.6, diffs associated with the set of changes have the same size limitations applied as other diffs returned by the API or viewed via the UI. When these limits impact the results, the
overflow
field contains a value oftrue
. Diff data without these limits applied can be retrieved by adding theaccess_raw_diffs
parameter, accessing diffs not from the database but from Gitaly directly. This approach is generally slower and more resource-intensive, but isn't subject to size limits placed on database-backed diffs. Limits inherent to Gitaly still apply.
List merge requests
Introduced in GitLab 9.5.
Get all merge requests the authenticated user has access to. By
default it returns only merge requests created by the current user. To
get all merge requests, use parameter scope=all
.
The state
parameter can be used to get only merge requests with a
given state (opened
, closed
, locked
, or merged
) or all of them (all
). It should be noted that when searching by locked
it mostly returns no results as it is a short-lived, transitional state.
The pagination parameters page
and per_page
can be used to
restrict the list of merge requests.

Get single MR
Shows information about a single merge request.
Note: the changes_count
value in the response is a string, not an
integer. This is because when an MR has too many changes to display and store,
it is capped at 1,000. In that case, the API returns the string
"1000+"
for the changes count.
GET /projects/:id/merge_requests/:merge_request_iid
Parameters:
Attribute | Type | Required | Description |
---|---|---|---|
id |
integer/string | yes | The ID or URL-encoded path of the project owned by the authenticated user. |
merge_request_iid |
integer | yes | The internal ID of the merge request. |
render_html |
boolean | no | If true response includes rendered HTML for title and description. |
include_diverged_commits_count |
boolean | no | If true response includes the commits behind the target branch. |
include_rebase_in_progress |
boolean | no | If true response includes whether a rebase operation is in progress. |

Merge to default merge ref path
Merge the changes between the merge request source and target branches into refs/merge-requests/:iid/merge
ref, of the target project repository, if possible. This ref has the state the target branch would have if
a regular merge action was taken.
This is not a regular merge action given it doesn't change the merge request target branch state in any manner.
This ref (refs/merge-requests/:iid/merge
) isn't necessarily overwritten when submitting
requests to this API, though it makes sure the ref has the latest possible state.
If the merge request has conflicts, is empty or already merged, you receive a 400
and a descriptive error message.
It returns the HEAD commit of refs/merge-requests/:iid/merge
in the response body in case of 200
.
GET /projects/:id/merge_requests/:merge_request_iid/merge_ref
Parameters:
Attribute | Type | Required | Description |
---|---|---|---|
id |
integer/string | yes | The ID or URL-encoded path of the project owned by the authenticated user. |
merge_request_iid |
integer | yes | The internal ID of the merge request. |
{
"commit_id": "854a3a7a17acbcc0bbbea170986df1eb60435f34"
}
Cancel Merge When Pipeline Succeeds
- If you don't have permissions to accept this merge request - you receive a
HTTP 401 Unauthorized
. - If the merge request is already merged or closed - you receive a
HTTP 405 Method Not Allowed
and the error message 'Method Not Allowed'. - In case the merge request is not set to be merged when the pipeline succeeds, you also receive a
HTTP 406 Not Acceptable
error.
POST /projects/:id/merge_requests/:merge_request_iid/cancel_merge_when_pipeline_succeeds
Parameters:
Attribute | Type | Required | Description |
---|---|---|---|
id |
integer/string | yes | The ID or URL-encoded path of the project owned by the authenticated user. |
merge_request_iid |
integer | yes | The internal ID of the merge request. |

Rebase a merge request
Automatically rebase the source_branch
of the merge request against its
target_branch
.
If you don't have permissions to push to the merge request's source branch -
you receive a 403 Forbidden
response.
PUT /projects/:id/merge_requests/:merge_request_iid/rebase
Attribute | Type | Required | Description |
---|---|---|---|
id |
integer/string | yes | The ID or URL-encoded path of the project owned by the authenticated user. |
merge_request_iid |
integer | yes | The internal ID of the merge request. |
skip_ci |
boolean | no | Set to true to skip creating a CI pipeline. |
curl --request PUT --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <your_access_token>" "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/76/merge_requests/1/rebase"
This is an asynchronous request. The API returns a HTTP 202 Accepted
response
if the request is enqueued successfully, with a response containing:
{
"rebase_in_progress": true
}
You can poll the Get single MR endpoint with the
include_rebase_in_progress
parameter to check the status of the
asynchronous request.
If the rebase operation is ongoing, the response includes the following:
{
"rebase_in_progress": true,
"merge_error": null
}
After the rebase operation has completed successfully, the response includes the following:
{
"rebase_in_progress": false,
"merge_error": null
}
If the rebase operation fails, the response includes the following:
{
"rebase_in_progress": false,
"merge_error": "Rebase failed. Please rebase locally"
}
