Using JAVA GiLab API, how I can identify branch and files are related to specific hash

Question

I am using the JAVA GitLabAPI ( https://github.com/timols/java-gitlab-api ), and I want to identify which modified files and branch are related to an specific hash code. I took a look on the Internet and found the method getCommitDiffs. Then implemented the following code:

GitlabAPI api = GitlabAPI.connect(host, key, token);

List<GitlabCommitDiff> diffs = api.getCommitDiffs(projectId, hash);

However, I did not understand what's the ProjectId. The id is already defined by the GitLab website or I can choose it ?

Answer 1

The project ID is created during the creation using the GUI or API. It is fixed and cannot be changed.

You can retrieve the IDs using the Project class. There you can read out every project or enclose the search using parameters.
