How to integrate

About GitLab

Track branches and merge requests

Link your user stories in Aha! Develop with their branches and merge requests in GitLab — so everyone on your team has visibility into how code is progressing. Each branch and merge request links directly back to your code in GitLab. This makes it easy to move between tools.

Import issues from GitLab

Automatically update a feature's status in Aha! Develop when an event happens in GitLab (such as when a merge request succeeds). This saves you time — no need to check the status of your code in GitLab and manually update the status in Aha! Develop.

Customize functionality

The Aha! Develop integration with GitLab is delivered via an open-source extension. This means you can customize the way it works to match your needs. For example, add code-based automation that creates a to-do to write documentation when a documentation label is added to a GitLab MR.

Integrations in Aha! Develop are powered by extensions that are easy to install and set up. Choose from our growing library of open-source extensions to connect with all the tools your team uses to build lovable products.

Installation details:

Account administrators can install the GitLab extension from the extension library
Add the GitLab custom field to your feature card layout
Configure a webhook in GitLab to automatically link user stories with branches and pull requests — just use the Aha! reference number in the branch name
