Creating a GitLab App

To configure your GitLab Source Control, you must first create an OAuth2 application within your GitLab account. GitLab allows you to create an OAuth2 application at 3 different permission levels: User, Group, or Instance-Wide. We generally encourage you to use the Group-level OAuth2 application, but please feel free to use whichever best fits your organization.

Creating a Group-Owned Application

To create a new application for a group:

1. Go to the desired group.

2. In the left sidebar, select Settings > Applications.

3. Enter a Name and Redirect URI.

   1. The Redirect URI will be dependent on your environment.

      1. Demo: https://api.demo.pandium.com/v0/author/callback/oauth2

      2. Sandbox: https://api.sandbox.pandium.com/v0/author/callback/oauth2

      3. Sandbox EU: https://api.sandbox-eu.pandium.com/v0/author/callback/oauth2

      4. Production: https://api.pandium.io/v0/author/callback/oauth2

      5. Production EU: https://api.pandium-eu.io/v0/author/callback/oauth2

4. Select OAuth 2 scopes (API Access, Read_Repository, Write_Repository)

5. Ensure the Confidential checkbox is checked.

6. Select Save application. GitLab provides:

   • The OAuth 2 Client ID in the Application ID field.

   • The OAuth 2 Client Secret, accessible by selecting Copy in the Secret field.

   • The Renew secret function. Use this function to generate and copy a new secret for this application. Renewing a secret prevents the existing application from functioning until the credentials are updated.

7. Notate the Application ID, Secret, and Scopes as they will be required for connecting to Pandium Source Control.
