Other Integrations & Connections

Connecting Vanta & GitLab Cloud

The GitLab integration allows you to connect both Cloud & Self-Managed types of GitLab instances.

Gitlab Cloud allows customers to connect tools like Vanta using OAuth. By connecting your GitLab Cloud account with Vanta, Vanta is able to make API calls as the connecting user, allowing you to automate the collection of evidence for your code repository configurations, pull request workflows, and security issue tracking. 

Integrating with GitLab Cloud 

  • From the left-hand navigation panel, select Integrations
  • Select the Available tab, and search for GitLab
