GitLab

The GitLab integration connects your GitLab pipelines with Golive using Gitlab Components. With this integration, changes in GitLab - such as builds or deployments - are automatically reflected in Jira and Golive.

Requirements

• Golive App is configured on your Jira instance.

• CI/CD is configured using GitLab pipelines.

Get Started

1. Open the Apwide Golive Components in the GitLab CI/CD Catalog.

2. Go to the Readme tab for configuration steps and examples of the send-environment-info and send-release-info GitLab Components.

Integration Capabilities

Jira Versions

• Automatically creates missing Jira versions in relevant Jira project(s).

• Updates version scope based on GitLab deployments.

Jira Work Items

• Retrieves Jira work items (aka Jira issues) from your GitLab commit history.

• Updates FixVersion fields with relevant Jira versions.

• Displays deployments in:

  • The Golive Issue panel.

  • The Jira Deployments panel (Jira Cloud only).

Golive Dashboards

• Updates Environment statuses during deployments.

• Updates Environment deployed versions based on the relevant deployment scope (Jira work items).

Integration Use Cases

Track Application Deployments

Integrate GitLab merge requests with specific Environments in Golive. This allows teams to see which Jira tickets (features or fixes), represented by merge requests in GitLab, are currently deployed in specific Environments managed in Jira.

More information: Track Application Deployments

Track Environment Statuses

Sync Golive with GitLab CI/CD pipelines to automatically update the status of Environments in Jira. For instance, when a deployment is successfully completed in GitLab, Golive reflects this change in the corresponding environment within Jira, ensuring real-time accuracy in environment tracking.

Release Management Coordination

Use GitLab’s release and tagging features to inform environment status in Golive. When a new release is tagged in GitLab, Golive updates the status of related environments in Jira.
