Prerequisites:
- Set up and add envars to [Infisical Cloud](https://app.infisical.com)
<AccordionGroup>
<Accordion title="Standard">
## Navigate to your project's integrations tab
![integrations](../../images/integrations.png)
## Authorize Infisical for GitLab
Press on the GitLab tile and grant Infisical access to your GitLab account.
![integrations gitlab authorization](../../images/integrations/gitlab/integrations-gitlab-auth.png)
<Info>
If this is your project's first cloud integration, then you'll have to grant
Infisical access to your project's environment variables. Although this step
breaks E2EE, it's necessary for Infisical to sync the environment variables to
the cloud platform.
</Info>
## Start integration
Select which Infisical environment secrets you want to sync to which GitLab repository and press create integration to start syncing secrets to GitLab.
![integrations gitlab](../../images/integrations/gitlab/integrations-gitlab-create.png)
Note that the GitLab integration supports a few options in the **Options** tab:
- Secret Prefix: If inputted, the prefix is appended to the front of every secret name prior to being synced.
- Secret Suffix: If inputted, the suffix to appended to the back of every name of every secret prior to being synced.
Setting a secret prefix or suffix ensures that existing secrets in GCP Secret Manager are not overwritten during the sync. As part of this process, Infisical abstains from mutating any secrets in GitLab without the specified prefix or suffix.

## Generate service token
Generate an [Infisical Token](/documentation/platform/token) for the specific project and environment in Infisical.
## Set the Infisical Token in Gitlab
Create a new variable called `INFISICAL_TOKEN` with the value set to the token from the previous step in Settings > CI/CD > Variables of your GitLab repository.
## Configure Infisical in your pipeline
Edit your `.gitlab-ci.yml` to include the Infisical CLI installation. This will allow you to use the CLI for fetching and injecting secrets into any script or command within your Gitlab CI/CD process.
#### Example
```yaml
image: ubuntu
stages:
- build
- test
- deploy
build-job:
stage: build
script:
- apt update && apt install -y curl
- curl -1sLf 'https://dl.cloudsmith.io/public/infisical/infisical-cli/setup.deb.sh' | bash
- apt-get update && apt-get install -y infisical
- infisical run -- npm run build
```

<Tab title="Self-Hosted Setup">
Using the GitLab integration on a self-hosted instance of Infisical requires configuring an application in GitLab
and registering your instance with it.
## Create an OAuth application in GitLab
Navigate to your user Settings > Applications to create a new GitLab application.
![integrations gitlab config](../../images/integrations/gitlab/integrations-gitlab-config-edit-profile.png)
![integrations gitlab config](../../images/integrations/gitlab/integrations-gitlab-config-new-app.png)
Create the application. As part of the form, set the **Redirect URI** to `https://your-domain.com/integrations/gitlab/oauth2/callback`.
![integrations gitlab config](../../images/integrations/gitlab/integrations-gitlab-config-new-app-form.png)
<Note>
If you have a GitLab group, you can create an OAuth application under it
in your group Settings > Applications.
</Note>
## Add your OAuth application credentials to Infisical
Obtain the **Application ID** and **Secret** for your GitLab application.
![integrations gitlab config](../../images/integrations/gitlab/integrations-gitlab-config-credentials.png)
Back in your Infisical instance, add two new environment variables for the credentials of your GitLab application:
- `CLIENT_ID_GITLAB`: The **Client ID** of your GitLab application.
- `CLIENT_SECRET_GITLAB`: The **Secret** of your GitLab application.
Once added, restart your Infisical instance and use the GitLab integration.
