Add Git connection

To add GitLab personal Git token in Brainboard, you first need to generate it in your GitLab account.

Steps to generate a personal Git token on your GitLab account.
  1. Go to your GitLab.

  2. Add a name and specify API rights, then click on Create personal access token button:

  3. The token is generated, you can copy it to add to Brainboard:

To add the generated token in Brainboard:

  1. Go to the settings page.

  2. Click on Integrations

  3. In the section Personal connections Click on Add connection

  4. Select GitLab tab

  5. Add your credentials in the displayed window:

    • Name of the token. This is only for Brainboard, it will not be used when you do a pull request.

    • The URL of your GitLab server: by default Brainboard uses https://gitlab.com, but if you have a private Gitlab instance accessible through the internet or if you use a single-tenant Brainboard offering, you can specify a different URL.

  6. Then click on Save and close button.

  7. Brainboard will verify if the credentials are valid:

    1. If they are valid, Brainboard displays a success message and you can see the integration now in the Git connection page

    2. If they are not, you'll receive an error about what is wrong. For example:
