Gitlab SaaS and OIDC/OAuth

Hello,

My apologies if this has been covered elsewhere, but multiple searches failed to yield any clear answer.

Does Gitlab SaaS support any external authentication mechanisms? Specifically, I’m looking for whether Google Workspaces OAuth2/OIDC would be supported.

Thanks,
Jerry

Bump.

Hi,

GitLab.com SaaS supports external authentication providers, SAML SSO for groups for example.

I cannot answer whether Google workspaces work, never tried that myself. Digesting the details from the docs, I believe it should work:

Recommend creating a group on GitLab.com and do the SAML setup following these resources.

Cheers,
Michael

Hi Michael,

Many thanks for the links you provided. I had no idea that Google Workspaces supported SAML for SSO in addition to their OIDC support. I’ll be trying this out and will report back.

All the best,
Jerry
