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

Add the First Step

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Monday, 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 Monday and GitLab integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Monday 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 Monday and GitLab
Monday + GitLab + Slack: When a specific column in a Monday task is updated, a GitLab merge request is created. Then, a message is sent to a Slack channel to notify the team about the new merge request.
GitLab + Monday + Google Sheets: When a new commit is made in GitLab, a new row is added to a Google Sheet to track the commit. The Google Sheet row data is then used to create an update in a specified Monday board item.
