Gitlab cannot search by Namespace/Project anymore

Please see : _https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/40446
now the only correct way to get a project with the api is by using the id :
api/v4/projects/{:id}
_https://docs.gitlab.com/ce/api/projects.html#get-single-project

if you read _https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md#1023-2017-11-30
you’ll see at https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md#performance-3-changes-1 :
Drastically improve project search performance by no longer searching namespace name.

So it’s not possible anymore to toogle on a project, because :
https:/GITLAB/api/v4/projects/REPONAME/PROJECT_NAME/services/drone-ci?drone_url=DRONE_URL&enable_ssl_verification=true&token=TOKEN will fail… instead drone need to do :
https:/GITLAB/api/v4/projects/PROJECT_ID/services/drone-ci?drone_url=DRONE_URL&enable_ssl_verification=true&token=TOKEN
