How do I list GitLab issues?

Short answer: You can list gitlab issues in GitLab by hand from its own interface, but it won’t repeat itself. On TinyCommand, add the GitLab List GitLab Issues action to a workflow, map its 5 inputs from any upstream app, and it runs automatically every time the trigger fires. No code, and a free tier to start.

FAQ

Questions about List GitLab Issues.

What does the List GitLab Issues action do in GitLab?
Paginated issues with filters by state, label, assignee, milestone, date. For "open critical issues" dashboards or per-engineer queue rollups.
What inputs does List GitLab Issues require?
Required: Project ID or Path. Every input accepts a static value or a variable from any upstream node in your workflow.
Can I use dynamic inputs from earlier workflow nodes?
Yes. Any field on this action can pull values from upstream nodes, whether that's a form response, a trigger payload, an AI output, or a lookup result.
What happens if GitLab returns an error?
The run history shows the failed step with its input and the error message GitLab returned, so you can fix the input and run the workflow again. Automatic retries are built into HTTP steps only, where you can also set your own retry count and delay.
Does List GitLab Issues support batch operations?
Run List GitLab Issues inside a loop to process each item in an array. TinyCommand does not throttle calls for you, so for large arrays add a Delay step if you need to stay within GitLab's rate limits.
