How to connect GitLab and Attio
Create a New Scenario to Connect GitLab and Attio
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 GitLab, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, GitLab or Attio will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find GitLab or Attio, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

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

Authenticate Attio
Now, click the Attio node and select the connection option. This can be an OAuth2 connection or an API key, which you can obtain in your Attio settings. Authentication allows you to use Attio through Latenode.
Configure the GitLab and Attio 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 GitLab and Attio 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 GitLab, Attio, 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 GitLab and Attio integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between GitLab and Attio (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect GitLab and Attio
GitLab + Attio + Slack: When a new issue is created in GitLab, the automation searches for an existing contact in Attio. If the contact exists, it updates the contact; otherwise, it creates a new contact in Attio. Finally, a message is sent to a specified Slack channel notifying the team about the GitLab issue and the Attio contact update or creation.
Attio + GitLab + Linear: When a new contact is created in Attio, an issue is created in GitLab. Then, that GitLab issue is automatically created in Linear to centralize project management and issue tracking.
