# NuGet API **(FREE ALL)**
This is the API documentation for [NuGet Packages](../../user/packages/nuget_repository/index.md).
WARNING:
This API is used by the [NuGet package manager client](https://www.nuget.org/)
and is generally not meant for manual consumption.
For instructions on how to upload and install NuGet packages from the GitLab
Package Registry, see the [NuGet package registry documentation](../../user/packages/nuget_repository/index.md).
NOTE:
These endpoints do not adhere to the standard API authentication methods.
See the [NuGet package registry documentation](../../user/packages/nuget_repository/index.md)
for details on which headers and token types are supported. Undocumented authentication methods might be removed in the future.
## Package index

| -------------- | ------ | -------- | ----------- |
| `id` | string | yes | The ID or full path of the project. |
| `package_name` | string | yes | The name of the package. |
```shell
curl --user <username>:<personal_access_token> "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/1/packages/nuget/download/MyNuGetPkg/index"
```
Example response:
```json
{
"versions": [
"1.3.0.17"
]
}
```
## Download a package file
> Introduced in GitLab 12.8.
Download a NuGet package file. The [metadata service](#metadata-service) provides this URL.
```plaintext
GET projects/:id/packages/nuget/download/:package_name/:package_version/:package_filename
```
| Attribute | Type | Required | Description |
| ----------------- | ------ | -------- | ----------- |
| `id` | string | yes | The ID or full path of the project. |

```
Write the output to a file:
```shell

NOTE:
GitLab doesn't receive an authentication token for the `Packages()` and
`FindPackagesByID()` endpoints, so the latest version of the package
cannot be returned. You must provide the version when you install
or upgrade a package with the NuGet v2 feed.
