Manage group-level default settings for a project integration

Prerequisites:

  • You must have at least the Maintainer role for the group.

To manage group-level default settings for a project integration:

  1. On the left sidebar, select Search or go to and find your group.
  2. Select Settings > Integrations.
  3. Select an integration.
  4. Complete the fields.
  5. Select Save changes.
caution
This may affect all or most of the subgroups and projects belonging to the group. Review the details below.

If this is the first time you are setting up group-level settings for an integration:

  • The integration is enabled for all subgroups and projects belonging to the group that don’t already have this integration configured, if you have the Enable integration toggle turned on in the group-level settings.
  • Subgroups and projects that already have the integration configured are not affected, but can choose to use the inherited settings at any time.

When you make further changes to the group defaults:

  • They are immediately applied to all subgroups and projects belonging to the group that have the integration set to use default settings.
  • They are immediately applied to newer subgroups and projects, even those created after you last saved defaults for the integration. If your group-level default setting has the Enable integration toggle turned on, the integration is automatically enabled for all such subgroups and projects.
  • Subgroups and projects with custom settings selected for the integration are not immediately affected and may choose to use the latest defaults at any time.

If instance-level settings have also been configured for the same integration, projects in the group inherit settings from the group.

Only the entire settings for an integration can be inherited. Per-field inheritance is proposed in epic 2137.

Remove a group-level default setting

Prerequisites:

  • You must have at least the Maintainer role for the group.

To remove a group-level default setting:

  1. On the left sidebar, select Search or go to and find your group.
  2. Select Settings > Integrations.
  3. Select an integration.
  4. Select Reset and confirm.

Resetting a group-level default setting removes integrations that use default settings and belong to a project or subgroup of the group.

Project webhooks

Some integrations use webhooks for external applications.

You can configure a project webhook to listen for specific events like pushes, issues, or merge requests. When the webhook is triggered, GitLab sends a POST request with data to a specified webhook URL.

For a list of integrations that use webhooks, see Available integrations.

Push hook limit

If a single push includes changes to more than three branches or tags, integrations supported by push_hooks and tag_push_hooks events are not executed.

To change the number of supported branches or tags, configure the push_event_hooks_limit setting.

SSL verification

By default, the SSL certificate for outgoing HTTP requests is verified based on an internal list of certificate authorities. The SSL certificate cannot be self-signed.

You can disable SSL verification when you configure webhooks and some integrations.
