How do I sign-up with GitLab Cloud?
Hivel accesses the past 60-90 days of commits and pull requests from active repositories during the initial sync.
Hivel employs GitLab's OAuth for authentication.
Users maintain full control and can withdraw access anytime via GitLab's authorized apps section.
Make sure to log in with an account possessing write permissions to relevant GitLab repositories.
Write permissions are mandatory for webhook publication, facilitating real-time data sync.
Opt for a service account rather than an individual-linked account.
Service accounts are typically overseen by the company's admin.
Navigate to the Hivel sign-up page
Add your work email id.
Now, you can use your Google or Microsoft login with your work email id; or create a password.
Create your Company Profile, and click 'Get Started'.
Once you've successfully created your Company Profile, you will be redirected to the Integrations Page.
Select GitLab cloud, and log in to your company's GitLab account using a service account.
If you are not already logged into GitLab in your current browser session, you will see the standard GitLab login screen.
Enter your GitLab credentials (username/email and password) or sign in using your corporate Single Sign-On (SSO) provider.
Note: Our platform never sees, collects, or stores your GitLab password.
You will be presented with an authorization screen showing our application name and the specific permissions (scopes) requested.
Review the listed permissions to understand what data our platform needs to function.
Click the Authorize button to grant access.
Once authorized, GitLab will automatically redirect your browser back to our platform's dashboard.
Our system will process the secure connection token in the background.
You will see a success message indicating your GitLab Cloud integration is active and ready to use.
