GitLab Connector
The official Logto connector for GitLab social sign-in, based on the Hugging Face connector by Silverhand Inc.
Table of contents
Get started
The GitLab connector enables end-users to sign in to your application using their own GitLab accounts via the GitLab OAuth 2.0 authentication protocol.
Sign in with GitLab account
Go to the GitLab website and sign in with your GitLab account. You may register a new account if you don't have one.
Create and configure OAuth app
Follow the creating a GitLab OAuth App guide, and register a new application.
Name your new OAuth application in Name and fill up Redirect URI of the app. Customize the Redirect URIs as ${your_logto_origin}/callback/${connector_id}
. The connector_id
can be found on the top bar of the Logto Admin Console connector details page.
On scopes, select openid
. You also may want to enable profile
, and email
. profile
scope is required to get the user's profile information, and email
scope is required to get the user's email address. Ensure you have allowed these scopes in your GitLab OAuth app if you want to use them.
Notes:
- If you use custom domains, add both the custom domain and the default Logto domain to the Redirect URIs to ensure the OAuth flow works correctly with both domains.
- If you encounter the error message "The redirect_uri MUST match the registered callback URL for this application." when logging in, try aligning the Redirect URI of your GitLab OAuth App and your Logto App's redirect URL (including the protocol) to resolve the issue.
Managing OAuth apps
Go to the Applications page on GitLab, where you can add, edit, or delete existing OAuth apps. You can also find the Application ID
and generate Secret
in the OAuth app detail pages.
Configure your connector
Fill out the clientId
and clientSecret
field with the Application ID and Secret you've got from the OAuth app detail pages mentioned in the previous section.
scope
is a space-delimited list of scopes. If not provided, scope defaults to be openid
. For GitLab connector, the scope you may want to use are openid
, profile
and email
. profile
scope is required to get the user's profile information, and email
scope is required to get the user's email address. Ensure you have allowed these scopes in your GitLab OAuth app (configured in Create an OAuth app in the Hugging Face section).
