You can onboard using your own GitLab repository. If you would like to use your own GitLab repository, please complete the following steps:

1

Create a GitLab Repository

Create a new GitLab private repository using one of these options:

2

Configure allowed IP addresses

If you are restricting access to your GitLab group using IP addresses allow list, add the IP addresses displayed in the GitLab connection screen in Honeydew App settings page to the restricted IP addresses list in your GitLab group settings.

For the Honeydew Cloud deployment, the following IP addresses are used:

  • 34.86.209.90
  • 34.145.147.92

If you are using a private Honeydew deployment, the IP addresses will be different. You can find them in the GitLab connection screen in Honeydew App settings page.

3

Set up Honeydew

Please reach out to support@honeydew.ai and send the full repository name - org-name/repository-name (e.g. honeydew-ai/honeydew-quickstart).

4

Create a GitLab Token

Create a new GitLab token for Honeydew integration:

  • In GitLab, under the project you have created for Honeydew, go to Settings -> Access tokens
  • Create a new project token:
    • Select Maintainer as the role
    • Set the following permissions:
      • api
      • read_user
      • read_repository
      • write_repository
    • Set a far-enough expiration date
    • Name the token (e.g. Honeydew)
5

Configure the token in Honeydew

In the Honeydew application, go to Settings -> GitLab and configure the token.

If you have branch rules, push rules or merge request rules for new repositories, you may need to relax these rules for the Honeydew GitLab repository. Specifically, please disable Merge request approval rules requiring at least one reviewer for merge requests.
