How to connect Cloudinary and GitLab
Create a New Scenario to Connect Cloudinary and GitLab
In the workspace, click the “Create New Scenario” button.

Add the First Step
Add the first node – a trigger that will initiate the scenario when it receives the required event. Triggers can be scheduled, called by a Cloudinary, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, Cloudinary or GitLab will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Cloudinary or GitLab, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Add the Cloudinary Node
Select the Cloudinary node from the app selection panel on the right.

Configure the Cloudinary
Click on the Cloudinary node to configure it. You can modify the Cloudinary URL and choose between DEV and PROD versions. You can also copy it for use in further automations.
Add the GitLab Node
Next, click the plus (+) icon on the Cloudinary node, select GitLab from the list of available apps, and choose the action you need from the list of nodes within GitLab.

Authenticate GitLab
Now, click the GitLab node and select the connection option. This can be an OAuth2 connection or an API key, which you can obtain in your GitLab settings. Authentication allows you to use GitLab through Latenode.
Configure the Cloudinary and GitLab Nodes
Next, configure the nodes by filling in the required parameters according to your logic. Fields marked with a red asterisk (*) are mandatory.
Set Up the Cloudinary and GitLab Integration
Use various Latenode nodes to transform data and enhance your integration:
- Branching: Create multiple branches within the scenario to handle complex logic.
- Merging: Combine different node branches into one, passing data through it.
- Plug n Play Nodes: Use nodes that don’t require account credentials.
- Ask AI: Use the GPT-powered option to add AI capabilities to any node.
- Wait: Set waiting times, either for intervals or until specific dates.
- Sub-scenarios (Nodules): Create sub-scenarios that are encapsulated in a single node.
- Iteration: Process arrays of data when needed.
- Code: Write custom code or ask our AI assistant to do it for you.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Cloudinary, GitLab, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.
Test the Scenario
Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the Cloudinary and GitLab integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Cloudinary and GitLab (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Cloudinary and GitLab
Cloudinary + GitLab + Slack: When a new image is uploaded to Cloudinary, update a specified file in a GitLab repository with the new image URL and then notify a Slack channel about the update.
GitLab + Cloudinary + Jira: When a new commit is pushed to GitLab, upload any image assets included in the commit to Cloudinary, then create a Jira issue to track the image optimization and review process.
