GitLab – 403 Forbidden error when trying to delete a merge request
I’ve run into the issue of automating the deletion of merge requests over the API ( https://docs.gitlab.com/17.2/ee/api/merge_requests.html#delete-a-merge-request )
Googled around, and found people saying to use personal access tokens instead of project access tokens…
failed to spot this little detail: Only administrators and project owners can do this!
After elevating the permissions of my automation user, merge requests are being deleted now! yay
