Using GitLab SSO on a self-hosted instance of Infisical requires configuring an OAuth application in GitLab and registering your instance with it.

1

Create an OAuth application in GitLab

Navigate to your user Settings > Applications to create a new GitLab application.

Create the application. As part of the form, set the Redirect URI to https://your-domain.com/api/v1/sso/gitlab. Note that only read_user is required as part of the Scopes configuration.

If you have a GitLab group, you can create an OAuth application under it in your group Settings > Applications.

2

Add your OAuth application credentials to Infisical

Obtain the Application ID and Secret for your GitLab application.

Back in your Infisical instance, make sure to set the following environment variables:

  • CLIENT_ID_GITLAB_LOGIN: The Client ID of your GitLab application.
  • CLIENT_SECRET_GITLAB_LOGIN: The Secret of your GitLab application.
  • (optional) URL_GITLAB_LOGIN: The URL of your self-hosted instance of GitLab where the OAuth application is registered. If no URL is passed in, this will default to https://gitlab.com.
  • AUTH_SECRET: A secret key used for signing and verifying JWT. This can be a random 32-byte base64 string generated with openssl rand -base64 32.
  • SITE_URL: The URL of your self-hosted instance of Infisical - should be an absolute URL including the protocol (e.g. https://app.infisical.com)

Once added, restart your Infisical instance and log in with GitLab.
