Jira client url3/18/2023 Now we click “Save.” From Atlassian Documentation On Scopes, we manually type in “api”, then click “Create ‘api'” below it. In Client Secret, you guessed it – we put in Secret. Here paste in the Application ID from Gitlab. On the page we were working on before, scroll up to Client ID. Keep this handy, as we’ll be copying these values into Jira shortly. This will give a screen with your Application ID and Secret. Under scopes, select “api”, then click “Save Application” at the bottom. Then, under “Redirect URI”, paste the URL we just copied in. Under Name, enter something to let you identify your Jira instance uniquely. Once that page is open, locate “Applications on your left sidebar, and click that. On Gitlab, click on your Profile Picture -> Preferences. With that done, click “Generate” next to your Redirect URL, and copy that URL to a safe place – we’ll need it shortly. So both should look like this: Authorization endpoint: Do the same for Token endpoint, except it will end in ‘/oath/token’. ![]() Here, we’ll enter our Gitlab URL, followed by ‘/oauth/authorize’. We’ll skip down to the Authorization endpoint. If you try to put the domain name of your Gitlab instance – as I did – it will give you an error. An important note is the name entry must be alphanumeric. Then, we’ll click “Add new Integration,” then select “Custom” for service provider. You can find the official documentation here, but I’ll go over it in person as there are caveats that it doesn’t mention.įirst, we must go to you Admin Panel -> System -> OAuth 2.0. Great!įirst, we must set up an OAuth 2.0 connection between Jira and Gitlab. So, you’ve set up Gitlab so that all your projects are in a group and are ready to set up DVCS. This will enable Gitlab to post a comment on Jira issues whenever an Issue ID is posted in any commit, merge request or branch name. The Second Integration is set up within Gitlab. Ask me how long that took me to figure out. An important caveat that none of the documents mention is for this to work, your Repos on Gitlab must be under groups and not users. This will allow you to use the Developer Panel in your issues and enable you to use Smart Commits to perform actions within your Jira instance. The first Integration is set up in Jira using its DVCS Accounts page. You may configure both ways – I have before, but which you choose will entirely depend on how you want your Integration to work and where you want to set up the Integration. Integration OptionsĪs I mentioned earlier, there are two ways to integrate Jira into Gitlab. Today I will be integrating my Jira Server instance with my Gitlab CE Repos hosted within the same VM Cluster. While it is entirely possible to integrate a self-hosted platform with a cloud platform, you will most of the time be dealing with a Firewall between the two, which does not make for a good day. If you are already self-hosting Jira, do the same for Gitlab. ![]() This leads me to my first piece of advice – don’t mix your Deployment models. Like Jira, Gitlab has both a cloud-native version () and self-hosted options (Gitlab EE – Enterprise edition and Gitlab CE – Community edition). Well – considering the above, I think I do! So today, I’ll go over how to set up these integrations (Yes, Plural!) and which is the best practice for the result you wish to achieve. ![]() A few weeks ago, a reader reached out to me asking if I knew anything about integrating Jira with Gitlab. This is fine, but the CI/CD on Gitlab is much smoother as both testing and code are integrated and managed in the same place. Nope – so if I want to do any CI/CD and automatic tests, I have to rely on Jenkins. But to get this feature in a self-hosted Bitbucket, you must spring for Bitbucket Data Center, which is still a bit beyond my budget. This is where as soon as I push new code, the Repo will, in turn, automatically push that code to another location – in my case, a Bitbucket Cloud repo. First – and probably most important – Bitbucket Server doesn’t support automatic Repo mirroring. Instead, since I had a drive failure that required me to reconfigure my homelab space, I’ve been using Gitlab. What may surprise you, though, is I’m not using Bitbucket. And like many a geek, I have plenty of geeky side projects, some of which require some space to put my code. This week, we have an actual user request! But let’s make it a tradition to take the last week of November off from the blog and instead spend it with family.īut that’s last week’s news. Well – last Thursday was a holiday in the U.S., and the prep work had me so busy last week that I couldn’t finish today’s article.
