To send GitLab events to Chronosphere Observability Platform, create a webhook within GitLab and include your API key to authenticate with Observability Platform. For more information, refer to Webhooks in the GitLab documentation.

​
Obtain an API token

Before sending events from GitLab, contact Chronosphere Support to obtain an API token for use with authenticating your third-party app with Observability Platform.
This API token differs from an API token that’s generated when creating a service account.

​
Create a GitLab webhook

To send GitLab events to Observability Platform:
  1. In GitLab, create a webhook scoped to your project or group.
  2. In the URL field, enter https://ADDRESS.chronosphere.io/api/v1/data/events/receiver/gitlab Replace ADDRESS with your company name prefixed to your Observability Platform instance that ends in .chronosphere.io. For example, MY_COMPANY.chronosphere.io.
  3. In the Secret token field, enter the API token you obtained from Chronosphere Support.
  4. In the Trigger section, select the events to trigger the webhook. Observability Platform supports only Deployment events and Feature flag events.
    If you choose any events other than Deployment events or Feature flag events, Observability Platform drops the related event data, even though the GitLab interface lets you select other event types.
  5. Click Add webhook to create the webhook.
