your workflow for Live Updates and Native Builds. This integration allows Capawesome Cloud to access your source code from your self-hosted GitLab instance and automate deployments directly from your repository. ## Prerequisites[ΒΆ](#prerequisites "Permanent link") Before you begin, ensure you have: * A [Capawesome Cloud](https://console.cloud.capawesome.io) account with an app created. * Access to a GitLab Self-Managed instance. ## Create a personal access token[ΒΆ](#create-a-personal-access-token "Permanent link") To connect your GitLab Self-Managed instance to Capawesome Cloud, you need to create a personal access token with the appropriate permissions. Make sure the token owner has at least the **Reporter** role on the project you want to connect. 1. Log in to your GitLab Self-Managed instance. 2. In the upper-right corner, click on your avatar and select **Preferences**. 3. In the left sidebar, select **Personal access tokens**. 4. Click the **Add new token** button. 5. Enter a descriptive name for the token (e.g., "Capawesome Cloud"). 6. Set an expiration date for the token (optional, but recommended for security). 7. Select the following scopes: `api`, `read_user` and `read_repository`. 8. Click **Create personal access token**. 9. Copy the generated token immediately and store it securely. You will not be able to see it again. You will use this token when connecting your GitLab Self-Managed instance to Capawesome Cloud in the next step. ## Connect your repository[ΒΆ](#connect-your-repository "Permanent link") To connect your GitLab Self-Managed repository to Capawesome Cloud, follow these steps: 1. Navigate to the [Git](https://console.cloud.capawesome.io/apps/%5F/git) page in the Capawesome Cloud Console. 2. Click on the **GitLab** tab in the **Git Providers** section. 3. A dialog will appear prompting you to enter your GitLab Self-Managed instance URL and token. Fill in the required information and click **Connect**. 4. After connecting, select **GitLab Self-Managed** as your Git provider within the **Git Repositories** section. 5. Choose an owner (group) and select the repository you want to connect to Capawesome Cloud. 6. Click the **Save** button to finalize the integration. Your GitLab Self-Managed repository is now connected to Capawesome Cloud.
