# Project repository storage moves API
DETAILS:
**Tier:** Free, Premium, Ultimate
**Offering:** Self-managed, GitLab Dedicated
Project repositories including wiki and design repositories can be moved between storages. This API can help you when
[migrating to Gitaly Cluster](../administration/gitaly/index.md#migrate-to-gitaly-cluster), for example.
As project repository storage moves are processed, they transition through different states. Values
of `state` are:
- `initial`: The record has been created but the background job has not yet been scheduled.
- `scheduled`: The background job has been scheduled.
- `started`: The project repositories are being copied to the destination storage.
- `replicated`: The project has been moved.
- `failed`: The project repositories failed to copy or the checksums did not match.
- `finished`: The project has been moved and the repositories on the source storage have been deleted.
- `cleanup failed`: The project has been moved but the repositories on the source storage could not be deleted.
To ensure data integrity, projects are put in a temporary read-only state for the
duration of the move. During this time, users receive a `The repository is temporarily read-only. Please try again later.`
message if they try to push new commits.
This API requires you to [authenticate yourself](rest/authentication.md) as an administrator.
For other repository types see:
- [Snippet repository storage moves API](snippet_repository_storage_moves.md).
- [Group repository storage moves API](group_repository_storage_moves.md).
## Retrieve all project repository storage moves
```plaintext
GET /project_repository_storage_moves
```
By default, `GET` requests return 20 results at a time because the API results
are [paginated](rest/index.md#pagination).
