How do I view ONLY my projects along with their ids which are on Gitlab via a curl command?

I am trying to use the Gitlab API to create a release, and was getting familiar with the basics. I have already generated the private token key, but am having trouble with using it properly. Right now, I cannot even list my projects along with its id.

I have used this :

curl "https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects?private_token=XXXX"

But, I am only seeing a whole lot of data about a host of projects, that are not mine. How do I filter out, or get the data only related to my repo ?

It looks as if you're calling the wrong API. The /projects endpoint returns a list of all visible projects. To see just a list of projects owned by a particular user (e.g., you), you want the list user projects api:

GET /users/:user_id/projects

For example, I can get a list of my projects like this:

curl -s -H "private-token: $token" https://gitlab.com/api/v4/users/larsks/projects

Which correctly returns a couple of projects from back when I was using gitlab for hosting. The result looks something like:

[
  {
    "id": 123456,
    "description": "",
    "name": "kiwi",
    [...]
  },
  {
    "id": 654321,
    "description": "",
    "name": "sensormgr",
    [...]
  }
]

In your comment on the question, it looks as if you're getting an empty list in response:

[]

Do you own any projects? There certainly aren't any public projects associated with your gitlab account.
