  • Label this issue

When a project is transferred, GraphQL returns empty results when fetching by old namespace and iid.

There was a similar feature request implemented for API #30013 (closed)

Feature flag #421992 (closed)

Proposal

When the work item is fetched via GraphQL, Gitlab handles any redirects:

  • Related GraphQL code
  • find_by_full_path(id, follow_redirects: true) in API response
