GitLab

Last updated on Mar 05, 2024

GitLab is an all-in-one platform that provides comprehensive DevOps functionality, including repository management, code review, issue tracking, continuous integration, and deployment tools. It is open-source and can be run either on-premises or in the cloud, offering flexibility and customization options to organizations of different sizes and needs.

You can replicate the data from your GitLab account to a Destination database or data warehouse using Hevo Pipelines. Refer to section, Data Model for the list of supported objects.

Hevo uses the GitLab access token to replicate the data present in your GitLab account to the desired Destination database or data warehouse for scalable analysis.


Source Considerations

  • Pagination: An API call for each GitLab object fetches one page with up to 100 records.

  • Rate Limit: GitLab imposes a limit of 2000 API calls per minute. If the limit is exceeded, Hevo defers the ingestion till the limits reset.


Limitations

  • Hevo currently does not support deletes. Therefore, any data deleted in the Source may continue to exist in the Destination.

  • Hevo does not provide you with the option to select the historical sync duration for loading historical data. All the historical data in your GitLab account is loaded.
