GitLab Integration

Integrate GovernanceAI with GitLab for automated repository scanning and compliance checking.

Setup

Step 1: Create API Token

  • Go to Settings → Access Tokens
  • Create token with scopes:
    • api - API access
    • read_api - Read repositories
    • read_repository - Read files
  • Copy the token

Step 2: Connect in GovernanceAI

  • Integrations → GitLab
  • Enter GitLab URL (e.g., https://gitlab.com or your instance)
  • Paste API token
  • Click Connect
  • Select projects to scan

Step 3: Configure Webhooks

GovernanceAI creates webhooks for:

  • Push events - Scan on every push
  • Merge request events - Check on MR
  • Issues - Track compliance findings

Features

✅ Automated Scanning

  • Scan on push
  • Check on merge requests
  • Scheduled scans

✅ Pipeline Integration

  • Run in CI/CD pipeline
  • Create pipeline artifacts
  • Fail pipeline on violations

✅ Merge Request Checks

  • Report findings as MR comments
  • Block merge on critical issues
  • Show diff-only findings

  • read_repository - Read repository files
  • read_api - Read API data

Troubleshooting

  • Token expired - Generate new token
  • Webhooks not firing - Check webhook logs in GitLab
  • Projects not showing - Verify token has api scope
  • MR comments not appearing - Check project permissions
