IguanaX needs to have the ability to create Git repositories on GitLab. This means we need to create an access token with the correct permissions. Iguana will use the token to authenticate with GitLab.

• Go to https://gitlab.com/-/user_settings/personal_access_tokens to create a new access token in GitLab.

• Click Add new token

• Enter a Token Name, Expiration Date and grant the following Scopes. Click Create Personal Access Token:

• Copy the generated GitLab access token and paste it in your IguanaX Git Server Token setting and click Save. GitLab will only show you this once - if you forget it you will need to generate a fresh one.

In Key Pair SSH window, use the Generate button to have Iguana generate a private key pair for you. For more information on SSH see: How does IguanaX use SSH?

In Server SSH, click Register to have Iguana register your public key with GitLab.

You can see the registered public key in GitLab User Settings > SSH Keys.
