Configure GitLab.com and the Git Integration

Configure GitLab.com and the SnapLogic Git Integration.

To use GitLab.com, register the SnapLogic Platform with GitLab and configure the Git Integration feature in your SnapLogic environment. Each registration applies to one control plane (elastic.snaplogic.com, uat.elastic.snaplogic.com or emea.snaplogic.com) and covers all environments on that control plane.

Administrative privileges are required:

  • In GitLab.com, to:
    • Register SnapLogic as an application.
    • Create one or more repositories.
  • In the SnapLogic environment, to configure the Git Integration feature.
