Re: Application Automation connect to company GitLab

Ask a Question

Hi,

currently, I trying to connect our company Gitlab to Qlik Application Automation.

First of all, it looks like, there is a typo in the UI for connecting to the Gitlab instance:

Secondly, I am struggling with the authentication to GitLab. As in the Setup mentioned I created an Application on the GitLab instance but I have no clue where to get the Callback URL from.

I already tried different URLs like "https://[tenantURL].qlikcloud.com/login/callback" or "https://[tenantURL].qlikcloud.com/auth0/callback" but nothing really works.
There is always these error message while linking the connection:

An error has occurred

The redirect URI included is not valid.

Does someone know which URI I need to enter here or where do I get this from?
Maybe this should also be explained within the Setup of the Gitlab Connection.

Thanks in advance

Can you use the value https://connector.qlikcloud.com/callback and let me know if it works? I will update the Setup article for the connector to have this included.

Hi,

thank you for your Answer !
Unfortunately, this hint did not fix the problem completely.
But, there is a new error Message:

An error has occurred

The requested scope is invalid, unknown, or malformed.

Maybe I should respect the tenant URL?

That would appear to be an issue with the scopes being provided. When you configured an app in the Gitlab platform, which scopes were you able to assign?

The scopes that we are requesting in our authorize request are the following: api read_user read_api read_repository write_repository read_registry write_registry openid profile email.

Oh ok, yes this could be a problem. Basically, I'm able to assign every scope, but usually, I would like only read access for App Automation on GitLab.

Are some of them obligatory for App Automation?
This is my current configuration:

Thank you !

At this point we do unfortunately not have a solution to modify the scope requests.

Nice, thank you for your hints! The connection works!
I added some more Scopes. Here it would be nice to be able to restrict the Application only to read access. This could also be absolutely necessary for productive use. But for my testing, it's ok for now.
