• An Enkryptify workspace with admin access
  • A GitLab account with Maintainer or Owner permissions on the target project
  • A Personal Access Token with the api scope
When connecting Enkryptify to GitLab using a Personal Access Token, we only use the permissions required to create and update CI/CD variables on your selected project:
  • Required token scope:
    • api: access needed by GitLab to manage project CI/CD variables via API
Enkryptify does not access your repository contents. The token is used solely for API calls to manage variables.

​
Steps to complete

1

Create a new sync

  • Go to the Syncs tab of your project and click on GitLab. Create GitLab sync screen in Enkryptify
2

Provide host and Personal Access Token

  • Host: leave blank to use gitlab.com. For self-managed, enter the full base URL, e.g. https://gitlab.example.com.
  • Personal Access Token: must include the api scope. GitLab host and token entry screen in Enkryptify
3

Select your GitLab project

  • Confirm the target project (repository) where secrets will sync as CI/CD variables. Project selection confirmation in Enkryptify for GitLab
4

Map Enkryptify environment to GitLab environment

  • Example: main → production or develop → staging. Environment mapping screen between Enkryptify and GitLab
