Create a Access Token
- Navigate to gitlab.com or your hosted/onprem Gitlab Enterprise URL and login with a service account that has “member” permissions with read only access
- Make sure this account has access to all repos that will be included in the analysis
- From your avatar in the top right, click on Settings
- On the User Settings menu, select Access Tokens
- Enter token Name: Uplevel Connector.
- Choose or enter an Expiry date (eg 2023/01/01)
- It’s best to use a few years ahead.
- Select [x]read_api and [x]read_repository scopes
- Note, Uplevel will only make read-only request for repo metadata
- Click the Create personal access token button
- Copy and save the revealed Token
- Note, you will not be able to view this token again
- Paste the copied Token into the connector hub to connect.
Note: you will need an understanding of the repositories you’d like to include in the Uplevel analysis.
