In the documentation for the gitlab api, it tells you how to get the notes for a snippet in a particular project by doing:
GET /projects/:id/snippets/:snippet_id/notes
However, this does not work for snippets that the user has created that do not belong to a particular project (i.e. those in /dashboard/snippets).
Is there a way to get the comments on these snippets using the gitlab api as well? I could not find anything in the snippets API docs either.
It's not documented, but you can access snippets without a project just by altering the endpoint:
Instead of GET /projects/:id/snippets/:snippet_id/notes try /snippets/:snippet_id/notes. Everything else about interacting with snippets appears to be the same, just the endpoint changes.
