+### Removing expired job artifacts on GitLab self-managed instances
+
+In the process of migrating old artifacts for our SaaS customers, we are working to resolve any potential unrecoverable data loss for self-managed customers for artifacts that they may not want deleted yet. Before we can use the more performant way of cleaning up expired artifacts, we need to do some remediation to make sure customers don't lose their data, which is part of our effort in [the relevant epic](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/7097).

+Two options are available:
+
+- If you don't need any artifacts created before 2020-06-23, an Administrator can enable the worker for removing expired CI/CD artifacts:

+ ```ruby

+Alternatively, Administrators can also run commands in the Rails console to
+[delete artifacts from completed jobs prior to a specific date](#delete-job-artifacts-from-jobs-completed-before-a-specific-date).

+The following specific cloud provider services have been found to have issues in terms of either functionality or performance. As such, they either have caveats that should be considered or are not recommended:
+
+- [Azure Blob Storage](https://azure.microsoft.com/en-gb/services/storage/blobs/) has been found to have performance limits that can impact production use at certain times. For larger Reference Architectures the service may not be sufficient for production use and an alternative is recommended for use instead.
+- [Azure Database for PostgreSQL Server](https://azure.microsoft.com/en-gb/services/postgresql/#overview) (Single / Flexible) is not recommended for use due to notable performance issues or missing functionality.
+- [AWS Aurora Database](https://aws.amazon.com/rds/aurora) is not recommended due to compatibility issues.
+
+NOTE:
+As a general rule we unfortunately don't recommend Azure Services at this time.
+If required, we advise thorough testing is done at your intended scale
+over a sustained period to validate if the service is suitable.

}
-}
-```
-
-If a mutation is detected as potential spam and a CAPTCHA service is configured:
+ ```
- Use the `captchaSiteKey` to obtain a CAPTCHA response value using the appropriate CAPTCHA API.
Only [Google reCAPTCHA v2](https://developers.google.com/recaptcha/docs/display) is supported.
- Resubmit the request with the `X-GitLab-Captcha-Response` and `X-GitLab-Spam-Log-Id` headers set.

-```json

-}
+
+NOTE:
+The GitLab GraphiQL implementation doesn't permit passing of headers, so we must write
+this as a cURL query. `--data-binary` is used to properly handle escaped double quotes
+in the JSON-embedded query.

+## Resolve requests detected as spam
+

+
+REST API requests can be detected as spam. If a request is detected as spam and:
+
+- A CAPTCHA service is not configured, an error response is returned. For example:
+
+ ```json
+ {"message":{"error":"Your snippet has been recognized as spam and has been discarded."}}
+ ```
+
+- A CAPTCHA service is configured, you receive a response with:
+ - `needs_captcha_response` set to `true`.
+ - The `spam_log_id` and `captcha_site_key` fields set.
+
+ For example:
+
+ ```json
+ {"needs_captcha_response":true,"spam_log_id":42,"captcha_site_key":"6LeIxAcTAAAAAJcZVRqyHh71UMIEGNQ_MXjiZKhI","message":{"error":"Your snippet has been recognized as spam. Please, change the content or solve the reCAPTCHA to proceed."}}
+ ```
+
+- Use the `captcha_site_key` to obtain a CAPTCHA response value using the appropriate CAPTCHA API.
+ Only [Google reCAPTCHA v2](https://developers.google.com/recaptcha/docs/display) is supported.
+- Resubmit the request with the `X-GitLab-Captcha-Response` and `X-GitLab-Spam-Log-Id` headers set.
+
+```shell
+export CAPTCHA_RESPONSE="<CAPTCHA response obtained from CAPTCHA service>"
+export SPAM_LOG_ID="<spam_log_id obtained from initial REST response>"
+curl --request POST --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: $PRIVATE_TOKEN" --header "X-GitLab-Captcha-Response: $CAPTCHA_RESPONSE" --header "X-GitLab-Spam-Log-Id: $SPAM_LOG_ID" "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/snippets?title=Title&file_name=FileName&content=Content&visibility=public"

+- Use [interruptible](../yaml/index.md#interruptible) jobs which can be auto-canceled
+ if a new pipeline starts.
+- If a job doesn't have to run in every pipeline, use [`rules`](../jobs/job_control.md)
+ to make it only run when it's needed.
+- [Use private runners](../runners/runners_scope.md#group-runners) for some jobs.
+- If you are working from a fork and you submit a merge request to the parent project,
+ you can ask a maintainer to run a pipeline [in the parent project](merge_request_pipelines.md#run-pipelines-in-the-parent-project).
+
+If you manage an open source project, these improvements can also reduce CI/CD minutes
+consumption for contributor fork projects, enabling more contributions.

-# Pipeline schedules **(FREE)**
+# Scheduled pipelines **(FREE)**
-Pipelines are normally run based on certain conditions being met. For example, when a branch is pushed to repository.
-
-Pipeline schedules can be used to also run [pipelines](index.md) at specific intervals. For example:
-
-- Every month on the 22nd (cron example: `0 0 22 * *`) for a certain branch.
-- Every month on the 2nd Monday (cron example: `0 0 * * 1#2`).
-- Every other Sunday at 0900 hours (cron example: `0 9 * * sun%2`).
-- Once every day (cron example: `0 0 * * *`).
-
-Schedule timing is configured with [cron notation](../../topics/cron/index.md).
-You can use any cron value, but scheduled pipelines cannot run more frequently
-than the instance's [maximum frequency for scheduled pipelines](#advanced-configuration).
-
-In addition to using the GitLab UI, pipeline schedules can be maintained using the
-[Pipeline schedules API](../../api/pipeline_schedules.md).
+Use scheduled pipelines to run GitLab CI/CD [pipelines](index.md) at regular intervals.
## Prerequisites
-In order for a scheduled pipeline to be created successfully:
-
-- The schedule owner must have [permissions](../../user/permissions.md) to merge into the target branch.
-- The pipeline configuration must be valid.
-
-Otherwise the pipeline is not created.
-
-## Configuring pipeline schedules
-
-To schedule a pipeline for project:
-
-1. Navigate to the project's **CI/CD > Schedules** page.
-1. Click the **New schedule** button.
-1. Fill in the **Schedule a new pipeline** form.
-1. Click the **Save pipeline schedule** button.
-
-![New Schedule Form](img/pipeline_schedules_new_form.png)
-
-NOTE:
-Pipelines execution [timing is dependent](#advanced-configuration) on Sidekiq's own schedule.
-
-In the **Schedules** index page you can see a list of the pipelines that are
-scheduled to run. The next run is automatically calculated by the server GitLab
-is installed on.
-
-![Schedules list](img/pipeline_schedules_list.png)
-
-### Using variables
-
-You can pass any number of arbitrary variables. They are available in
-GitLab CI/CD so that they can be used in your [`.gitlab-ci.yml` file](../../ci/yaml/index.md).
-
-![Scheduled pipeline variables](img/pipeline_schedule_variables.png)
-
-### Using `rules`
-
-To configure a job to be executed only when the pipeline has been
-scheduled, use the [`rules`](../yaml/index.md#rules) keyword.
-
-In this example, `make world` runs in scheduled pipelines, and `make build`
-runs in branch and tag pipelines:
-
-```yaml
-job:on-schedule:
- rules:
- - if: $CI_PIPELINE_SOURCE == "schedule"
- script:
- - make world
-
-job:
- rules:
- - if: $CI_PIPELINE_SOURCE == "push"
- script:
- - make build
-```
-
-### Advanced configuration **(FREE SELF)**
-
-Scheduled pipelines can be configured with any [cron value](../../topics/cron/index.md),
-but they do not always run exactly when scheduled. An internal process, called the
-_pipeline schedule worker_, queues all the scheduled pipelines, but does not
-run continuously. The worker runs on its own schedule, and scheduled pipelines that
-are ready to start are only queued the next time the worker runs. Scheduled pipelines
-can't run more frequently than the worker.
-
-The default frequency of the pipeline schedule worker is `3-59/10 * * * *` (every ten minutes,
-starting with `0:03`, `0:13`, `0:23`, and so on). The default frequency for GitLab.com
-is listed in the [GitLab.com settings](../../user/gitlab_com/index.md#gitlab-cicd).
-
-To change the frequency of the pipeline schedule worker:
-
-1. Edit the `gitlab_rails['pipeline_schedule_worker_cron']` value in your instance's `gitlab.rb` file.
-1. [Reconfigure GitLab](../../administration/restart_gitlab.md#omnibus-gitlab-reconfigure) for the changes to take effect.
-
-For example, to set the maximum frequency of pipelines to twice a day, set `pipeline_schedule_worker_cron`
-to a cron value of `0 */12 * * *` (`00:00` and `12:00` every day).
+For a scheduled pipeline to run:
-## Working with scheduled pipelines
+- The schedule owner must have the Developer role. For pipelines on protected branches,
+ the schedule owner must be [allowed to merge](../../user/project/protected_branches.md#configure-a-protected-branch)
+ to the branch.
+- The [CI/CD configuration](../yaml/index.md) must be valid.
-After configuration, GitLab supports many functions for working with scheduled pipelines.
+Otherwise, the pipeline is not created. No error message is displayed.
-### Running manually
+## Add a pipeline schedule

+> Scheduled pipelines for tags [introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/23292) in GitLab 14.9.
-To trigger a pipeline schedule manually, click the "Play" button:
+To add a pipeline schedule:
-![Play Pipeline Schedule](img/pipeline_schedule_play.png)
+1. On the top bar, select **Menu > Projects** and find your project.
+1. On the left sidebar, select **CI/CD > Schedules**.
+1. Select **New schedule** and fill in the form.
+ - **Interval Pattern**: Select one of the preconfigured intervals, or enter a custom
+ interval in [cron notation](../../topics/cron/index.md). You can use any cron value,
+ but scheduled pipelines cannot run more frequently than the instance's
+ [maximum scheduled pipeline frequency](../../administration/cicd.md#change-maximum-scheduled-pipeline-frequency).
+ - **Target branch or tag**: Select the branch or tag for the pipeline.
+ - **Variables**: Add any number of [CI/CD variables](../variables/index.md) to the schedule.
+ These variables are available only when the scheduled pipeline runs,
+ and not in any other pipeline run.
-This schedules a background job to run the pipeline schedule. A flash
-message provides a link to the CI/CD Pipeline index page.
+## Run manually
-NOTE:
-To help avoid abuse, users are rate limited to triggering a pipeline once per
-minute.
+To trigger a pipeline schedule manually, so that it runs immediately instead of
+the next scheduled time:
-### Taking ownership
+1. On the top bar, select **Menu > Projects** and find your project.
+1. On the left sidebar, select **CI/CD > Schedules**.
+1. On the right of the list, for
+ the pipeline you want to run, select **Play** (**{play}**).
-Pipelines are executed as a user, who owns a schedule. This influences what projects and other resources the pipeline has access to.
+You can manually run scheduled pipelines once per minute.
-If a user does not own a pipeline, you can take ownership by clicking the **Take ownership** button.
-The next time a pipeline is scheduled, your credentials are used.
+## Take ownership
-![Schedules list](img/pipeline_schedules_ownership.png)
+Scheduled pipelines execute with the permissions of the user
+who owns the schedule. The pipeline has access to the same resources as the pipeline owner,
+including [protected environments](../environments/protected_environments.md) and the
+[CI/CD job token](../jobs/ci_job_token.md).
-If the owner of a pipeline schedule cannot create
-pipelines on the target branch, the schedule stops creating new
-pipelines.
+To take ownership of a pipeline created by a different user:
-This can happen if, for example:
+1. On the top bar, select **Menu > Projects** and find your project.
+1. On the left sidebar, select **CI/CD > Schedules**.
+1. On the right of the list, for
+ the pipeline you want to become owner of, select **Take ownership**.
-- The owner is blocked or removed from the project.
-- The target branch or tag is protected.
+## Related topics
-In this case, someone with sufficient privileges must take ownership of the

+> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/213729) in GitLab 14.9 [with a flag](../../administration/feature_flags.md) named `ci_trigger_forward_variables`. Disabled by default.
+
+FLAG:
+On self-managed GitLab, by default this feature is not available. To make it available,
+ask an administrator to [enable the feature flag](../../administration/feature_flags.md) named `ci_trigger_forward_variables`.
+The feature is not ready for production use.
+
+Use `trigger:forward` to specify what to forward to the downstream pipeline. You can control
+what is forwarded to both [parent-child pipelines](../pipelines/parent_child_pipelines.md)
+and [multi-project pipelines](../pipelines/multi_project_pipelines.md).
+
+**Possible inputs**:
+
+- `yaml_variables`: `true` (default), or `false`. When `true`, variables defined
+ in the trigger job are passed to downstream pipelines.
+- `pipeline_variables`: `true` or `false` (default). When `true`, [manual pipeline variables](../variables/index.md#override-a-defined-cicd-variable)
+ are passed to downstream pipelines.
+
+**Example of `trigger:forward`**:
+
+[Run this pipeline manually](../pipelines/index.md#run-a-pipeline-manually), with
+the CI/CD variable `MYVAR = my value`:
+
+```yaml
+variables: # default variables for each job
+ VAR: value
+
+# Default behavior:
+# - VAR is passed to the child
+# - MYVAR is not passed to the child
+child1:
+ trigger:
+ include: .child-pipeline.yml
+
+# Forward pipeline variables:
+# - VAR is passed to the child
+# - MYVAR is passed to the child
+child2:
+ trigger:
+ include: .child-pipeline.yml
+ forward:
+ pipeline_variables: true
+
+# Do not forward YAML variables:
+# - VAR is not passed to the child
+# - MYVAR is not passed to the child
+child3:
+ trigger:
+ include: .child-pipeline.yml
+ forward:
+ yaml_variables: false
+```
+
### `variables`
[CI/CD variables](../variables/index.md) are configurable values that are passed to jobs.

+# Create: Source Code Backend
+
+The Create:Source Code BE team focuses on the GitLab suite of Source Code Management
+(SCM) tools. It is responsible for all backend aspects of the product categories
+that fall under the [Source Code group](https://about.gitlab.com/handbook/product/categories/#source-code-group)
+of the [Create stage](https://about.gitlab.com/handbook/product/categories/#create-stage)
+of the [DevOps lifecycle](https://about.gitlab.com/handbook/product/categories/#devops-stages).
+
+We interface with the Gitaly and Code Review teams, and work closely with the
+[Create:Source Code Frontend team](https://about.gitlab.com/handbook/engineering/development/dev/create-source-code-fe). The features
+we work with are listed on the
+[Features by Group Page](https://about.gitlab.com/handbook/product/categories/features/#createsource-code-group).
+
+The team works across three codebases: Workhorse, GitLab Shell and GitLab Rails.
+
+## Workhorse
+
+GitLab Workhorse is a smart reverse proxy for GitLab. It handles "large" HTTP
+requests such as file downloads, file uploads, `git push`, `git pull` and `git` archive downloads.
+
+Workhorse itself is not a feature, but there are several features in GitLab
+that would not work efficiently without Workhorse.
+
+Workhorse documentation is available in the [Workhorse repository](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/tree/master/workhorse).
+
+## GitLab Shell
+
+GitLab Shell handles Git SSH sessions for GitLab and modifies the list of authorized keys.
+For more information, [refer to the README](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-shell/-/blob/main/README.md).
+for GitLab Shell.

+# Contribute to the CI Schema **(FREE)**
+
+The [pipeline editor](../../ci/pipeline_editor/index.md) uses a CI schema to enhance
+the authoring experience of our CI configuration files. With the CI schema, the editor can:
+
+- Validate the content of the CI configuration file as it is being written in the editor.
+- Provide autocomplete functionality and suggest available keywords.
+- Provide definitions of keywords through annotations.
+
+As the rules and keywords for configuring our CI configuration files change, so too
+should our CI schema.
+
+This feature is behind the [`schema_linting`](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/master/config/feature_flags/development/schema_linting.yml)
+feature flag for self-managed instances, and is enabled for GitLab.com.
+
+## JSON Schemas
+
+The CI schema follows the [JSON Schema Draft-07](https://json-schema.org/draft-07/json-schema-release-notes.html)
+specification. Although the CI configuration file is written in YAML, it is converted
+into JSON by using `monaco-yaml` before it is validated by the CI schema.
+
+If you're new to JSON schemas, consider checking out
+[this guide](https://json-schema.org/learn/getting-started-step-by-step) for
+a step-by-step introduction on how to work with JSON schemas.
+
+## Update Keywords
+
+The CI schema is at [`app/assets/javascripts/editor/schema/ci.json`](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/master/app/assets/javascripts/editor/schema/ci.json).
+It contains all the keywords available for authoring CI configuration files.
+Check the [keyword reference](../../ci/yaml/index.md) for a comprehensive list of
+all available keywords.
+
+All keywords are defined under `definitions`. We use these definitions as
+[references](https://json-schema.org/learn/getting-started-step-by-step#references)
+to share common data structures across the schema.
+
+For example, this defines the `retry` keyword:
+
+```json
+{
+ "definitions": {
+ "retry": {
+ "description": "Retry a job if it fails. Can be a simple integer or object definition.",
+ "oneOf": [
+ {
+ "$ref": "#/definitions/retry_max"
+ },
+ {
+ "type": "object",
+ "additionalProperties": false,
+ "properties": {
+ "max": {
+ "$ref": "#/definitions/retry_max"
+ },
+ "when": {
+ "description": "Either a single or array of error types to trigger job retry.",
+ "oneOf": [
+ {
+ "$ref": "#/definitions/retry_errors"
+ },
+ {
+ "type": "array",
+ "items": {
+ "$ref": "#/definitions/retry_errors"
+ }
+ }
+ ]
+ }
+ }
+ }
+ ]
+ }
+ }
+}
+```
+
+With this definition, the `retry` keyword is both a property of
+the `job_template` definition and the `default` global keyword. Global keywords
+that configure pipeline behavior (such as `workflow` and `stages`) are defined
+under the topmost **properties** key.
+
+```json
+{
+ "properties": {
+ "default": {
+ "type": "object",
+ "properties": {
+ "retry": {
+ "$ref": "#/definitions/retry"
+ },
+ }
+ }
+ },
+ "definitions": {
+ "job_template": {
+ "properties": {
+ "retry": {
+ "$ref": "#/definitions/retry"
+ }
+ },
+ }
+ }
+}
+```
+
+## Guidelines for updating the schema
+
+- Keep definitions atomic when possible, to be flexible with
+ referencing keywords. For example, `workflow:rules` uses only a subset of
+ properties in the `rules` definition. The `rules` properties have their
+ own definitions, so we can reference them individually.
+- When adding new keywords, consider adding a `description` with a link to the
+ keyword definition in the documentation. This information shows up in the annotations
+ when the user hovers over the keyword.
+- For each property, consider if a `minimum`, `maximum`, or
+ `default` values are required. Some values might be required, and in others we can set
+ blank. In the blank case, we can add the following to the definition:
+
+```json
+{
+ "keyword": {
+ "oneOf": [
+ {
+ "type": "null"
+ },
+ ...
+ ]
+ }
+}
+```
+
+## Test the schema
+
+For now, the CI schema can only be tested manually. To verify the behavior is correct:
+
+1. Enable the `schema_linting` feature flag.
+1. Go to **CI/CD** > **Editor**.
+1. Write your CI/CD configuration in the editor and verify that the schema validates
+ it correctly.

+# Contribute to Verify stage codebase
+
+## What are we working on in Verify?
+
+Verify stage is working on a comprehensive Continuous Integration platform
+integrated into the GitLab product. Our goal is to empower our users to make
+great technical and business decisions, by delivering a fast, reliable, secure
+platform that verifies assumptions that our users make, and check them against
+the criteria defined in CI/CD configuration. They could be unit tests, end-to-end
+tests, benchmarking, performance validation, code coverage enforcement, and so on.
+
+Feedback delivered by GitLab CI/CD makes it possible for our users to make well
+informed decisions about technological and business choices they need to make
+to succeed. Why is Continuous Integration a mission critical product?
+
+GitLab CI/CD is our platform to deliver feedback to our users and customers.
+
+They contribute their continuous integration configuration files
+`.gitlab-ci.yml` to describe the questions they want to get answers for. Each
+time someone pushes a commit or triggers a pipeline we need to find answers for
+very important questions that have been asked in CI/CD configuration.
+
+Failing to answer these questions or, what might be even worse, providing false
+answers, might result in a user making a wrong decision. Such wrong decisions
+can have very severe consequences.
+
+## Core principles of our CI/CD platform
+
+Data produced by the platform should be:
+
+1. Accurate.
+1. Durable.
+1. Accessible.
+
+The platform itself should be:
+
+1. Reliable.
+1. Secure.
+1. Deterministic.
+1. Trustworthy.
+1. Fast.
+1. Simple.
+
+Since the inception of GitLab CI/CD, we have lived by these principles,
+and they serve us and our users well. Some examples of these principles are that:
+
+- The feedback delivered by GitLab CI/CD and data produced by the platform should be accurate.
+ If a job fails and we notify a user that it was successful, it can have severe negative consequences.
+- Feedback needs to be available when a user needs it and data can not disappear unexpectedly when engineers need it.
+- It all doesn’t matter if the platform is not secure and we
+are leaking credentials or secrets.
+- When a user provides a set of preconditions in a form of CI/CD configuration, the result should be deterministic each time a pipeline runs, because otherwise the platform might not be trustworthy.
+- If it is fast, simple to use and has a great UX it will serve our users well.
+
+## Building things in Verify
+
+### Measure before you optimize, and make data-informed decisions
+
+It is very difficult to optimize something that you can not measure. How would you
+know if you succeeded, or how significant the success was? If you are working on
+a performance or reliability improvement, make sure that you measure things before
+you optimize them.
+
+The best way to measure stuff is to add a Prometheus metric. Counters, gauges, and
+histograms are great ways to quickly get approximated results. Unfortunately this
+is not the best way to measure tail latency. Prometheus metrics, especially histograms,
+are usually approximations.
+
+If you have to measure tail latency, like how slow something could be or how
+large a request payload might be, consider adding custom application logs and
+always use structured logging.
+
+It's useful to use profiling and flamegraphs to understand what the code execution
+path truly looks like!
+
+### Strive for simple solutions, avoid clever solutions
+
+It is sometimes tempting to use a clever solution to deliver something more
+quickly. We want to avoid shipping clever code, because it is usually more
+difficult to understand and maintain in the long term. Instead, we want to
+focus on boring solutions that make it easier to evolve the codebase and keep the
+contribution barrier low. We want to find solutions that are as simple as
+possible.
+
+### Do not confuse boring solutions with easy solutions
+
+Boring solutions are sometimes confused with easy solutions. Very often the
+opposite is true. An easy solution might not be simple - for example, a complex
+new library can be included to add a very small functionality that otherwise
+could be implemented quickly - it is easier to include this library than to
+build this thing, but it would bring a lot of complexity into the product.
+
+On the other hand, it is also possible to over-engineer a solution when a simple,
+well tested, and well maintained library is available. In that case using the
+library might make sense. We recognize that we are constantly balancing simple
+and easy solutions, and that finding the right balance is important.
+
+### "Simple" is not mutually exclusive with "flexible"
+
+Building simple things does not mean that more advanced and flexible solutions
+will not be available. A good example here is an expanding complexity of
+writing `.gitlab-ci.yml` configuration. For example, you can use a simple
+method to define an environment name:
+
+```yaml
+deploy:
+ environment: production
+ script: cap deploy
+```
+
+But the `environment` keyword can be also expanded into another level of
+configuration that can offer more flexibility.
+
+```yaml
+deploy:
+ environment:
+ name: review/$CI_COMMIT_REF_SLUG
+ url: https://prod.example.com
+ script: cap deploy
+```
+
+This kind of approach shields new users from the complexities of the platform,
+but still allows them to go deeper if they need to. This approach can be
+applied to many other technical implementations.
+
+### Make things observable
+
+GitLab is a DevOps platform. We popularize DevOps because it helps companies
+be more efficient and achieve better results. One important component of
+DevOps culture is to take ownership over features and code that you are
+building. It is very difficult to do that when you don’t know how your features
+perform and behave in the production environment.
+
+This is why we want to make our features and code observable. It
+should be written in a way that an author can understand how well or how poorly
+the feature or code behaves in the production environment. We usually accomplish
+that by introducing the proper mix of Prometheus metrics and application
+loggers.
+
+**TODO** document when to use Prometheus metrics, when to use loggers. Write a
+few sentences about histograms and counters. Write a few sentences highlighting
+importance of metrics when doing incremental rollouts.
+
+### Protect customer data
+
+Making data produced by our CI/CD platform durable is important. We recognize that
+data generated in the CI/CD by users and customers is
+something important and we must protect it. This data is not only important
+because it can contain important information, we also do have compliance and
+auditing responsibilities.
+
+Therefore we must take extra care when we are writing migrations
+that permanently removes data from our database, or when we are define
+new retention policies.
+
+As a general rule, when you are writing code that is supposed to remove
+data from the database, file system, or object storage, you should get an extra pair
+of eyes on your changes. When you are defining a new retention policy, you
+should double check with PMs and EMs.
+
+### Get your changes reviewed
+
+When your merge request is ready for reviews you must assign
+reviewers and then maintainers. Depending on the complexity of a change, you
+might want to involve the people that know the most about the codebase area you are
+changing. We do have many domain experts in Verify and it is absolutely acceptable to
+ask them to review your code when you are not certain if a reviewer or
+maintainer assigned by the Reviewer Roulette has enough context about the
+change.
+
+The reviewer roulette offers useful suggestions, but as assigning the right
+reviewers is important it should not be done automatically every time. It might
+not make sense to assign someone who knows nothing about the area you are
+updating, because their feedback might be limited to code style and syntax.
+Depending on the complexity and impact of a change, assigning the right people
+to review your changes might be very important.
+
+If you don’t know who to assign, consult `git blame` or ask in the `#verify`
+Slack channel (GitLab team members only).
+
+### Incremental rollouts
+
+After your merge request is merged by a maintainer, it is time to release it to
+users and the wider community. We usually do this with feature flags.
+While not every merge request needs a feature flag, most merge
+requests in Verify should have feature flags. [**TODO** link to docs about what
+needs a feature flag and what doesn’t].
+
+If you already follow the advice on this page, you probably already have a
+few metrics and perhaps a few loggers added that make your new code observable
+in the production environment. You can now use these metrics to incrementally
+roll out your changes!
+
+A typical scenario involves enabling a few features in a few internal projects
+while observing your metrics or loggers. Be aware that there might be a
+small delay involved in ingesting logs in Elastic or Kibana. After you confirm
+the feature works well with internal projects you can start an
+incremental rollout for other projects.
+
+Avoid using "percent of time" incremental rollouts. These are error prone,
+especially when you are checking feature flags in a few places in the codebase
+and you have not memoized the result of a check in a single place.
+
+### Do not cause our Universe to implode
+
+During one of the first GitLab Contributes events we had a discussion about the importance
+of keeping CI/CD pipeline, stage, and job statuses accurate. We considered a hypothetical
+scenario relating to a software being built by one of our [early customers](https://about.gitlab.com/blog/2016/11/23/gitlab-adoption-growing-at-cern/)
+
+> What happens if software deployed to the [Large Hadron Collider (LHC)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Large_Hadron_Collider),
+> breaks because of a bug in GitLab CI/CD that showed that a pipeline
+> passed, but this data was not accurate and the software deployed was actually
+> invalid? A problem like this could cause the LHC to malfunction, which
+> could generate a new particle that would then cause the universe to implode.
+
+That would be quite an undesirable outcome of a small bug in GitLab CI/CD status
+processing. Please take extra care when you are working on CI/CD statuses,
+we don’t want to implode our Universe!
+
+This is an extreme and unlikely scenario, but presenting data that is not accurate
+can potentially cause a myriad of problems through the
+[butterfly effect](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Butterfly_effect).
+There are much more likely scenarios that
+can have disastrous consequences. GitLab CI/CD is being used by companies
+building medical, aviation, and automotive software. Continuous Integration is
+a mission critical part of software engineering.
+
+When you are working on a subsystem for pipeline processing and transitioning
+CI/CD statuses, request an additional review from a domain expert and hold
+others accountable for doing the same.

+
+We built an automation tool to aid migration of foreign keys into loose foreign keys as part of
+decomposition effort. It presents existing keys and allows chosen foreign keys to be automatically
+converted into loose foreign keys. This ensures consistency between foreign key and loose foreign
+key definitions, and ensures that they are properly tested.

+- Creating a migration to remove a foreign key.
+- Updating `db/structure.sql` with the new migration.
+- Updating `lib/gitlab/database/gitlab_loose_foreign_keys.yml` to add the new loose foreign key.
+- Creating or updating a model's specs to ensure that the loose foreign key is properly supported.
+- Creating a new branch, commit, push, and creating a merge request on GitLab.com.
+- Creating a merge request template with all the necessary details to validate the safety of the foreign key removal.
+
+The tool is located at `scripts/decomposition/generate-loose-foreign-key`:

+
+In the above example, we can't use
+`render 'shared/issuable/form/default_templates'` because it would find the

-A known bug affects asset compilation with FIPS mode enabled: [issue #322883](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/322883).
-Until this is resolved, working on frontend issues is not feasible. We can still
-work on backend issues by compiling the assets while FIPS is disabled, and
-placing GDK into [static asset mode](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-development-kit/-/blob/main/doc/configuration.md#webpack-settings):

-
-1. In the GitLab repository, apply this patch to prevent the assets from being
- automatically deleted whenever GDK is restarted:

+
+### GET:Geo pipeline
+
+As part of the [package-and-qa](testing_guide/end_to_end/index.md#using-the-package-and-qa-job) pipeline, there is an option to manually trigger a job named `GET:Geo`. This
+pipeline uses [GET](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-environment-toolkit) to spin up a
+[1k](../administration/reference_architectures/1k_users.md) Geo installation,
+and run the [`gitlab-qa`](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-qa) Geo scenario against the instance.
+When working on Geo features, it is a good idea to ensure the `qa-geo` job passes in a triggered `GET:Geo pipeline`.
+
+The pipelines that control the provisioning and teardown of the instance are included in The GitLab Environment Toolkit Configs
+[Geo subproject](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/quality/gitlab-environment-toolkit-configs/Geo).
+
+When adding new functionality, consider adding new tests to verify the behavior. For steps,
+see the [QA documentation](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/tree/master/qa#writing-tests).
+
+#### Architecture
+
+The pipeline involves the interaction of multiple different projects:
+
+- [GitLab](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab) - The [package-and-qa job](testing_guide/end_to_end/index.md#using-the-package-and-qa-job) is launched from merge requests in this project.
+- [`omnibus-gitlab`](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/omnibus-gitlab) - Builds relevant artifacts containing the changes from the triggering merge request pipeline.
+- [GET-Configs/Geo](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/quality/gitlab-environment-toolkit-configs/Geo) - Coordinates the lifecycle of a short-lived Geo installation that can be evaluated.
+- [GET](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-environment-toolkit) - Contains the necessary logic for creating and destroying Geo installations. Used by `GET-Configs/Geo`.
+- [`gitlab-qa`](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-qa) - Tool for running automated tests against a GitLab instance.

+# Integrations development guide **(FREE)**
+
+This page provides development guidelines for implementing [GitLab integrations](../../user/project/integrations/index.md),
+which are part of our [main Rails project](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab).
+
+Also see our [direction page](https://about.gitlab.com/direction/ecosystem/integrations/) for an overview of our strategy around integrations.
+
+This guide is a work in progress. You're welcome to ping `@gitlab-org/ecosystem-stage/integrations`
+if you need clarification or spot any outdated information.
+
+## Add a new integration
+
+### Define the integration
+
+1. Add a new model in `app/models/integrations` extending from `Integration`.
+ - For example, `Integrations::FooBar` in `app/models/integrations/foo_bar.rb`.
+ - For certain types of integrations, you can also build on these base classes:
+ - `Integrations::BaseChatNotification`
+ - `Integrations::BaseIssueTracker`
+ - `Integrations::BaseMonitoring`
+ - `Integrations::BaseSlashCommands`
+ - For integrations that primarily trigger HTTP calls to external services, you can
+ also use the `Integrations::HasWebHook` concern. This reuses the [webhook functionality](../../user/project/integrations/webhooks.md)
+ in GitLab through an associated `ServiceHook` model, and automatically records request logs
+ which can be viewed in the integration settings.
+1. Add the integration's underscored name (`'foo_bar'`) to `Integration::INTEGRATION_NAMES`.
+1. Add the integration as an association on `Project`:
+
+ ```ruby
+ has_one :foo_bar_integration, class_name: 'Integrations::FooBar'
+ ```
+
+1. TEMPORARY: Accommodate the current migration to [rename "services" to "integrations"](#rename-services-to-integrations):
+ - Add the integration's camel-cased name (`'FooBar'`) to `Gitlab::Integrations::StiType::NAMESPACED_INTEGRATIONS`.
+
+### Define properties
+
+Integrations can define arbitrary properties to store their configuration with the class method `Integration.prop_accessor`.
+The values are stored as a serialized JSON hash in the `integrations.properties` column.
+
+For example:
+
+```ruby
+module Integrations
+ class FooBar < Integration
+ prop_accessor :url
+ prop_accessor :tags
+ end
+end
+```
+
+`Integration.prop_accessor` installs accessor methods on the class. Here we would have `#url`, `#url=` and `#url_changed?`, to manage the `url` field. Fields stored in `Integration#properties` should be accessed by these accessors directly on the model, just like other ActiveRecord attributes.
+
+You should always access the properties through their getters, and not interact with the `properties` hash directly.
+You **must not** write to the `properties` hash, you **must** use the generated setter method instead. Direct writes to this
+hash are not persisted.
+
+You should also define validations for all your properties.
+
+Also refer to the section [Customize the frontend form](#customize-the-frontend-form) below to see how these properties
+are exposed in the frontend form for the integration.
+
+There is an alternative approach using `Integration.data_field`, which you may see in other integrations.
+With data fields the values are stored in a separate table per integration. At the moment we don't recommend using this for new integrations.
+
+### Define trigger events
+
+Integrations are triggered by calling their `#execute` method in response to events in GitLab,
+which gets passed a payload hash with details about the event.
+
+The supported events have some overlap with [webhook events](../../user/project/integrations/webhook_events.md),
+and receive the same payload. You can specify the events you're interested in by overriding
+the class method `Integration.supported_events` in your model.
+
+The following events are supported for integrations:
+
+| Event type | Default | Value | Trigger
+|:-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|:--------|:---------------------|:--
+| Alert event | | `alert` | A a new, unique alert is recorded.
+| Commit event | ✓ | `commit` | A commit is created or updated.
+| [Deployment event](../../user/project/integrations/webhook_events.md#deployment-events) | | `deployment` | A deployment starts or finishes.
+| [Issue event](../../user/project/integrations/webhook_events.md#issue-events) | ✓ | `issue` | An issue is created, updated, or closed.
+| [Confidential issue event](../../user/project/integrations/webhook_events.md#issue-events) | ✓ | `confidential_issue` | A confidential issue is created, updated, or closed.
+| [Job event](../../user/project/integrations/webhook_events.md#job-events) | | `job`
+| [Merge request event](../../user/project/integrations/webhook_events.md#merge-request-events) | ✓ | `merge_request` | A merge request is created, updated, or merged.
+| [Comment event](../../user/project/integrations/webhook_events.md#comment-events) | | `comment` | A new comment is added.
+| [Confidential comment event](../../user/project/integrations/webhook_events.md#comment-events) | | `confidential_note` | A new comment on a confidential issue is added.
+| [Pipeline event](../../user/project/integrations/webhook_events.md#pipeline-events) | | `pipeline` | A pipeline status changes.
+| [Push event](../../user/project/integrations/webhook_events.md#push-events) | ✓ | `push` | A push is made to the repository.
+| [Tag push event](../../user/project/integrations/webhook_events.md#tag-events) | ✓ | `tag_push` | New tags are pushed to the repository.
+| Vulnerability event **(ULTIMATE)** | | `vulnerability` | A new, unique vulnerability is recorded.
+| [Wiki page event](../../user/project/integrations/webhook_events.md#wiki-page-events) | ✓ | `wiki_page` | A wiki page is created or updated.
+
+#### Event examples
+
+This example defines an integration that responds to `commit` and `merge_request` events:
+
+```ruby
+module Integrations
+ class FooBar < Integration
+ def self.supported_events
+ %w[commit merge_request]
+ end
+ end
+end
+```
+
+An integration can also not respond to events, and implement custom functionality some other way:
+
+```ruby
+module Integrations
+ class FooBar < Integration
+ def self.supported_events
+ []
+ end
+ end
+end
+```
+
+### Customize the frontend form
+
+The frontend form is generated dynamically based on metadata defined in the model.
+
+By default, the integration form provides:
+
+- A checkbox to enable or disable the integration.
+- Checkboxes for each of the trigger events returned from `Integration#configurable_events`.
+
+You can also add help text at the top of the form by either overriding `Integration#help`,
+or providing a template in `app/views/projects/services/$INTEGRATION_NAME/_help.html.haml`.
+
+To add your custom properties to the form, you can define the metadata for them in `Integration#fields`.
+
+This method should return an array of hashes for each field, where the keys can be:
+
+| Key | Type | Required | Default | Description
+|:---------------|:--------|:---------|:-----------------------------|:--
+| `type:` | string | true | | The type of the form field. Can be `text`, `textarea`, `password`, `checkbox`, or `select`.
+| `name:` | string | true | | The property name for the form field. This must match a `prop_accessor` [defined on the class](#define-properties).
+| `required:` | boolean | false | `false` | Specify if the form field is required or optional.
+| `title:` | string | false | Capitalized value of `name:` | The label for the form field.
+| `placeholder:` | string | false | | A placeholder for the form field.
+| `help:` | string | false | | A help text that displays below the form field.
+
+#### Additional keys for `type: 'checkbox'`
+
+| Key | Type | Required | Default | Description
+|:------------------|:-------|:---------|:------------------|:--
+| `checkbox_label:` | string | false | Value of `title:` | A custom label that displays next to the checkbox.
+
+#### Additional keys for `type: 'select'`
+
+| Key | Type | Required | Default | Description
+|:-----------|:------|:---------|:--------|:--
+| `choices:` | array | true | | A nested array of `[label, value]` tuples.
+
+#### Additional keys for `type: 'password'`
+
+| Key | Type | Required | Default | Description
+|:----------------------------|:-------|:---------|:------------------|:--
+| `non_empty_password_title:` | string | false | Value of `title:` | An alternative label that displays when a value is already stored.
+| `non_empty_password_help:` | string | false | Value of `help:` | An alternative help text that displays when a value is already stored.
+
+#### Frontend form examples
+
+This example defines a required `url` field, and optional `username` and `password` fields:
+
+```ruby
+module Integrations
+ class FooBar < Integration
+ prop_accessor :url, :username, :password
+
+ def fields
+ [
+ {
+ type: 'text',
+ name: 'url',
+ title: s_('FooBarIntegration|Server URL'),
+ placeholder: 'https://example.com/',
+ required: true
+ },
+ {
+ type: 'text',
+ name: 'username',
+ title: s_('FooBarIntegration|Username'),
+ },
+ {
+ type: 'password',
+ name: 'password',
+ title: s_('FoobarIntegration|Password'
+ non_empty_password_title: s_('FooBarIntegration|Enter new password')
+ }
+ ]
+ end
+ end
+end
+```
+
+### Expose the integration in the API
+
+#### REST API
+
+To expose the integration in the [REST API](../../api/integrations.md):
+
+1. Add the integration's class (`::Integrations::FooBar`) to `API::Helpers::IntegrationsHelpers.integration_classes`.
+1. Add all properties that should be exposed to `API::Helpers::IntegrationsHelpers.integrations`.
+1. Update the reference documentation in `doc/api/integrations.md`, add a new section for your integration, and document all properties.
+
+You can also refer to our [REST API style guide](../api_styleguide.md).
+
+#### GraphQL API
+
+Integrations use the `Types::Projects::ServiceType` type by default,
+which only exposes the `type` and `active` properties.
+
+To expose additional properties, you can write a class implementing `ServiceType`:
+
+```ruby
+# in app/graphql/types/project/services/foo_bar_service_type.rb
+module Types
+ module Projects
+ module Services
+ class FooBarServiceType < BaseObject
+ graphql_name 'FooBarService'
+ implements(Types::Projects::ServiceType)
+ authorize :read_project
+
+ field :frobinity,
+ GraphQL::Types::Float,
+ null: true,
+ description: 'The level of frobinity.'
+
+ field :foo_label,
+ GraphQL::Types::String,
+ null: true,
+ description: 'The foo label to apply.'
+ end
+ end
+ end
+end
+```
+
+Each property you want to expose should have a field defined for it. You can also expose any public instance method of the integration.

+
+## Availability of integrations
+
+By default, integrations are available on the project, group, and instance level.
+Most integrations only act in a project context, but can be still configured
+from the group and instance levels.
+
+For some integrations it can make sense to only make it available on the project level.
+To do that, the integration must be removed from `Integration::INTEGRATION_NAMES` and
+added to `Integration::PROJECT_SPECIFIC_INTEGRATION_NAMES` instead.
+
+When developing a new integration, we also recommend you gate the availability behind a
+[feature flag](../feature_flags/index.md) in `Integration.available_integration_names`.
+
+## Documentation
+
+You can provide help text in the integration form, including links to off-site documentation,
+as described above in [Customize the frontend form](#customize-the-frontend-form). Refer to
+our [usability guidelines](https://design.gitlab.com/usability/helping-users) for help text.
+
+For more detailed documentation, provide a page in `doc/user/project/integrations`,
+and link it from the [Integrations overview](../../user/project/integrations/overview.md).
+
+You can also refer to our general [documentation guidelines](../documentation/index.md).
+
+## Testing
+
+It is often sufficient to add tests for the integration model in `spec/models/integrations`,
+and a factory with example settings in `spec/factories/integrations.rb`.
+
+Each integration is also tested as part of generalized tests. For example, there are feature specs
+that verify that the settings form is rendering correctly for all integrations.
+
+If your integration implements any custom behavior, especially in the frontend, this should be
+covered by additional tests.
+
+You can also refer to our general [testing guidelines](../testing_guide/index.md).
+
+## Internationalization
+
+All UI strings should be prepared for translation by following our [internationalization guidelines](../i18n/externalization.md).
+
+The strings should use the integration name as [namespace](../i18n/externalization.md#namespaces), for example, `s_('FooBarIntegration|My string')`.
+
+## Ongoing migrations and refactorings
+
+The Integrations team is in the process of some larger migrations that developers should be aware of.
+
+### [Rename "services" to "integrations"](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/2504)
+
+The "integrations" in GitLab were historically called "services", which frequently caused
+confusion with our "service" classes in `app/services`. We sometimes also called
+them "project services" because they were initially only available on projects, which is
+not the case anymore.
+
+We decided to change the naming from "services" and "project services" to "integrations".
+This refactoring is an ongoing effort, and there are still references to the old names in some places.
+
+Developers should be especially aware that we still use the old class names for the STI column
+`integrations.type`. For example, a class `Integrations::FooBar` still stores
+the old name `FooBarService` in the database. This mapping is handled via `Gitlab::Integrations::StiType`
+and should be mostly transparent to the rest of the app.
+
+### [Consolidate integration settings](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/3955)
+
+We want to unify the way integration properties are defined.
+
+## Integration examples
+
+You can refer to these issues for examples of adding new integrations:

+# Merge Request Concepts
+
+**NOTE**:
+The documentation below is the single source of truth for the merge request terminology and functionality.
+
+## Overview
+
+The merge request is made up of several different key components and ideas that encompass the overall merge request experience. These concepts sometimes have competing and confusing terminology or overlap with other concepts. The concepts this will cover are:
+
+1. Merge widget
+1. Report widgets
+1. Merge checks
+1. Approval rules
+
+### Merge widget
+
+The merge widget is the component of the merge request where the `merge` button exists:
+
+![merge widget](../img/merge_widget_v14_7.png)
+
+This area of the merge request is where all of the options and commit messages are defined prior to merging. It also contains information about what is in the merge request, what issues may be closed, and other important information to the merging process.
+
+### Report widgets
+
+Reports are widgets within the merge request that report information about changes within the merge request. These widgets provide information to better help the author understand the changes and further improvements to the proposed changes.
+
+[Design Documentation](https://design.gitlab.com/regions/merge-request-reports)
+
+![merge request reports](../img/merge_request_reports_v14_7.png)
+
+### Merge checks
+
+Merge checks are statuses that can either pass or fail and conditionally control the availability of the merge button being available within a merge request. The key distinguishing factor in a merge check is that users **do not** interact with the merge checks inside of the merge request, but are able to influence whether or not the check passes or fails. Results from the check are processed as true/false to determine whether or not a merge request can be merged. Examples include:
+
+1. merge conflicts
+1. pipeline success
+1. threads resolution
+1. [external status checks](../../user/project/merge_requests/status_checks.md)
+1. required approvals
+
+When all of the required merge checks are satisfied a merge request becomes mergeable.
+
+### Approvals
+
+Approval rules specify users that are required to or can optionally approve a merge request based on some kind of organizational policy. When approvals are required, they effectively become a required merge check. The key differentiator between merge checks and approval rules is that users **do** interact with approval rules, by deciding to approve the merge request.
+
+Additionally, approval settings provide configuration options to define how those approval rules are applied in a merge request. They can set limitations, add requirements, or modify approvals.
+
+Examples of approval rules and settings include:
+
+1. [merge request approval rules](../../user/project/merge_requests/approvals/rules.md)
+1. [code owner approvals](../../user/project/code_owners.md)
+1. [security approvals](../../user/application_security/index.md#security-approvals-in-merge-requests)
+1. [prevent editing approval rules](../../user/project/merge_requests/approvals/settings.md#prevent-editing-approval-rules-in-merge-requests)]
+1. [remove all approvals when commits are added](../../user/project/merge_requests/approvals/settings.md#remove-all-approvals-when-commits-are-added-to-the-source-branch)

-## Application/misuse limits
-
-Every new feature should have safe usage quotas introduced.
-The quota should be optimised to a level that we consider the feature to
-be performant and usable for the user, but **not limiting**.
-
-**We want the features to be fully usable for the users.**
-**However, we want to ensure that the feature continues to perform well if used at its limit**
-**and it doesn't cause availability issues.**
-
-Consider that it's always better to start with some kind of limitation,

-workflows breaking.
-
-The intent is to provide a safe usage pattern for the feature,
-as our implementation decisions are optimised for the given data set.
-Our feature limits should reflect the optimisations that we introduced.
-
-The intent of quotas could be different:
-
-1. We want to provide higher quotas for higher tiers of features:
- we want to provide on GitLab.com more capabilities for different tiers,
-1. We want to prevent misuse of the feature: someone accidentally creates
- 10000 deploy tokens, because of a broken API script,
-1. We want to prevent abuse of the feature: someone purposely creates
- a 10000 pipelines to take advantage of the system.
-
-Examples:
-
-1. Pipeline Schedules: It's very unlikely that user wants to create

- In such cases it's rather expected that this is either misuse
- or abuse of the feature. Lack of the upper limit can result
- in service degradation as the system tries to process all schedules
- assigned the project.
-
-1. GitLab CI/CD includes: We started with the limit of maximum of 50 nested includes.
- We understood that performance of the feature was acceptable at that level.
- We received a request from the community that the limit is too small.
- We had a time to understand the customer requirement, and implement an additional
- fail-safe mechanism (time-based one) to increase the limit 100, and if needed increase it
- further without negative impact on availability of the feature and GitLab.

+[`Gitlab::UrlBlocker`](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/master/lib/gitlab/url_blocker.rb) can be used to validate that a
+provided URL meets a set of constraints. Importantly, when `dns_rebind_protection` is `true`, the method returns a known-safe URI where the hostname
+has been replaced with an IP address. This prevents DNS rebinding attacks, because the DNS record has been resolved. However, if we ignore this returned
+value, we **will not** be protected against DNS rebinding.
-For situations in which an allowlist or GitLab:HTTP cannot be used, it will be necessary to implement mitigations directly in the feature. It is best to validate the destination IP addresses themselves, not just domain names, as DNS can be controlled by the attacker. Below are a list of mitigations that should be implemented.
+This is the case with validators such as the `AddressableUrlValidator` (called with `validates :url, addressable_url: {opts}` or `public_url: {opts}`).
+Validation errors are only raised when validations are called, for example when a record is created or saved. If we ignore the value returned by the validation
+when persisting the record, **we need to recheck** its validity before using it. You can learn more about [Time of Check to Time of Use bugs](#time-of-check-to-time-of-use-bugs) in a later section

+## Time of check to time of use bugs
+
+Time of check to time of use, or TOCTOU, is a class of error which occur when the state of something changes unexpectedly partway during a process.
+More specifically, it's when the property you checked and validated has changed when you finally get around to using that property.
+
+These types of bugs are often seen in environments which allow multi-threading and concurrency, like filesystems and distributed web applications; these are a type of race condition. TOCTOU also occurs when state is checked and stored, then after a period of time that state is relied on without re-checking its accuracy and/or validity.
+
+### Examples
+
+**Example 1:** you have a model which accepts a URL as input. When the model is created you verify that the URL's host resolves to a public IP address, to prevent attackers making internal network calls. But DNS records can change ([DNS rebinding](#server-side-request-forgery-ssrf)]). An attacker updates the DNS record to `127.0.0.1`, and when your code resolves those URL's host it results in sending a potentially malicious request to a server on the internal network. The property was valid at the "time of check", but invalid and malicious at "time of use".
+
+GitLab-specific example can be found in [this issue](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/214401) where, although `Gitlab::UrlBlocker.validate!` was called, the returned value was not used. This made it vulnerable to TOCTOU bug and SSRF protection bypass through [DNS rebinding](#server-side-request-forgery-ssrf). The fix was to [use the validated IP address](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/commit/7af8abd4df9a98f7a1ae7c4ec9840d0a7a8c684d).
+
+**Example 2:** you have a feature which schedules jobs. When the user schedules the job, they have permission to do so. But imagine if, between the time they schedule the job and the time it is run, their permissions are restricted. Unless you re-check permissions at time of use, you could inadvertently allow unauthorized activity.
+
+**Example 3:** you need to fetch a remote file, and perform a `HEAD` request to get and validate the content length and content type. When you subsequently make a `GET` request, though, the file delivered is a different size or different file type. (This is stretching the definition of TOCTOU, but things _have_ changed between time of check and time of use).
+
+**Example 4:** you allow users to upvote a comment if they haven't already. The server is multi-threaded, and you aren't using transactions or an applicable database index. By repeatedly clicking upvote in quick succession a malicious user is able to add multiple upvotes: the requests arrive at the same time, the checks run in parallel and confirm that no upvote exists yet, and so each upvote is written to the database.
+
+Here's some pseudocode showing an example of a potential TOCTOU bug:
+
+```ruby
+def upvote(comment, user)
+ # The time between calling .exists? and .create can lead to TOCTOU,
+ # particularly if .create is a slow method, or runs in a background job
+ if Upvote.exists?(comment: comment, user: user)
+ return
+ else
+ Upvote.create(comment: comment, user: user)
+ end
+end
+```
+
+### Prevention & defense
+
+- Assume values will change between the time you validate them and the time you use them.
+- Perform checks as close to execution time as possible.
+- Perform checks after your operation completes.
+- Use your framework's validations and database features to impose constraints and atomic reads and writes.
+- Read about [Server Side Request Forgery (SSRF) and DNS rebinding](#server-side-request-forgery-ssrf)
+
+An example of well implemented `Gitlab::UrlBlocker.validate!` call that prevents TOCTOU bug:

+
+# Exploratory testing of CAPTCHAs
+
+You can reliably test CAPTCHA on review apps, and in your local development environment (GDK).
+You can always:
+
+- Force a reCAPTCHA to appear where it is supported.
+- Force a checkbox to display, instead of street sign images to find and select.
+
+To set up testing, follow the configuration on this page.
+
+## Use appropriate test data
+
+Make sure you are testing a scenario which has spam/CAPTCHA enabled. For example:
+make sure you are editing a _public_ snippet, as only public snippets are checked for spam.
+
+## Enable feature flags
+
+Enable any relevant feature flag, if the spam/CAPTCHA support is behind a feature flag.
+
+## Set up Akismet and reCAPTCHA
+
+1. To set up reCAPTCHA:
+ 1. Review the [GitLab reCAPTCHA documentation](../../integration/recaptcha.md).
+ 1. Get Google's official test reCAPTCHA credentials using the instructions from
+ [Google's reCAPTCHA documentation](https://developers.google.com/recaptcha/docs/faq#id-like-to-run-automated-tests-with-recaptcha.-what-should-i-do).
+ 1. For **Site key**, use: `6LeIxAcTAAAAAJcZVRqyHh71UMIEGNQ_MXjiZKhI`
+ 1. For **Secret key**, use: `6LeIxAcTAAAAAGG-vFI1TnRWxMZNFuojJ4WifJWe`
+ 1. Go to **Admin -> Settings -> Reporting** settings: `http://gdk.test:3000/admin/application_settings/reporting#js-spam-settings`
+ 1. Select **Enable reCAPTCHA**. Enabling for login is not required unless you are testing that feature.
+ 1. Enter the **Site key** and **Secret key**.
+1. To set up Akismet:
+ 1. Review the [GitLab documentation on Akismet](../../integration/akismet.md).
+ 1. Get an Akismet API key. You can sign up for [a testing key from Akismet](https://akismet.com).
+ You must enter your local host (such as`gdk.test`) and email when signing up.
+ 1. Go to GitLab Akismet settings page, for example:
+ `http://gdk.test:3000/admin/application_settings/reporting#js-spam-settings`
+ 1. Enable Akismet and enter your Akismet **API key**.
+1. To force an Akismet false-positive spam check, refer to the
+ [Akismet API documentation](https://akismet.com/development/api/#comment-check) and
+ [Akismet Getting Started documentation](https://docs.akismet.com/getting-started/confirm/) for more details:
+ 1. You can use `akismet-guaranteed-spam@example.com` as the author email to force spam using the following steps:
+ 1. Go to user email settings: `http://gdk.test:3000/-/profile/emails`
+ 1. Add `akismet-guaranteed-spam@example.com` as a secondary email for the administrator user.
+ 1. Confirm it in the Rails console: `bin/rails c` -> `User.find_by_username('root').emails.last.confirm`
+ 1. Switch this verified email to be your primary email:
+ 1. Go to **Avatar dropdown list -> Edit Profile -> Main Settings**.
+ 1. For **Email**, enter `akismet-guaranteed-spam@example.com` to replace `admin@example.com`.
+ 1. Select **Update Profile Settings** to save your changes.
+
+## Test in the web UI
+
+After you have all the above configuration in place, you can test CAPTCHAs. Test
+in an area of the application which already has CAPTCHA support, such as:
+
+- Creating or editing an issue.
+- Creating or editing a public snippet. Only **public** snippets are checked for spam.
+
+## Test in a development environment
+
+After you force Spam Flagging + CAPTCHA using the steps above, you can test the
+behavior with any spam-protected model/controller action.
+
+### Test with CAPTCHA enabled (CONDITIONAL_ALLOW verdict)
+
+If CAPTCHA is enabled in these areas, you must solve the CAPTCHA popup modal before you can resubmit the form:
+
+- **Admin -> Settings -> Reporting -> Spam**
+- **Anti-bot Protection -> Enable reCAPTCHA**
+
+<!-- vale gitlab.Substitutions = NO -->
+
+### Testing with CAPTCHA disabled ("DISALLOW" verdict)
+
+<!-- vale gitlab.Substitutions = YES -->
+
+If CAPTCHA is disabled in **Admin -> Settings -> Reporting -> Spam** and **Anti-bot Protection -> Enable reCAPTCHA**,
+no CAPTCHA popup displays. You are prevented from submitting the form at all.
+
+### HTML page to render reCAPTCHA
+
+NOTE:
+If you use **Google's official test reCAPTCHA credentials** listed in
+[Set up Akismet and reCAPTCHA](#set-up-akismet-and-recaptcha), the
+CAPTCHA response string does not matter. It can be any string. If you use a
+real, valid key pair, you must solve the CAPTCHA to obtain a
+valid CAPTCHA response to use. You can do this once only, and only before it expires.
+
+To directly test the GraphQL API via [GraphQL Explorer](http://gdk.test:3000/-/graphql-explorer),
+get a reCAPTCHA response string via this form: `public/recaptcha.html` (`http://gdk.test:3000/recaptcha.html`):
+
+```html
+<html>
+<head>
+ <title>reCAPTCHA demo: Explicit render after an onload callback</title>
+ <script type="text/javascript">
+ var onloadCallback = function() {
+ grecaptcha.render('html_element', {
+ 'sitekey' : '6Ld05AsaAAAAAMsm1yTUp4qsdFARN15rQJPPqv6i'
+ });
+ };
+ function onSubmit() {
+ window.document.getElementById('recaptchaResponse').innerHTML = grecaptcha.getResponse();
+ return false;

+
+## Spam/CAPTCHA API exploratory testing examples
+
+These sections describe the steps needed to perform manual exploratory testing of
+various scenarios of the Spam and CAPTCHA behavior for the REST and GraphQL APIs.
+
+For the prerequisites, you must:
+
+1. Perform all the steps listed above to enable Spam and CAPTCHA in the development environment,
+ and force form submissions to require a CAPTCHA.
+1. Ensure you have created an HTML page to render CAPTCHA under the `/public` directory,
+ with a page that contains a form to manually generate a valid CAPTCHA response string.
+ If you use **Google's official test reCAPTCHA credentials** listed in
+ [Set up Akismet and reCAPTCHA](#set-up-akismet-and-recaptcha), the contents of the
+ CAPTCHA response string don't matter.
+1. Go to **Admin -> Settings -> Reporting -> Spam and Anti-bot protection**.
+1. Select or clear **Enable reCAPTCHA** and **Enable Akismet** according to your
+ scenario's needs.
+
+The following examples use snippet creation as an example. You could also use
+snippet updates, issue creation, or issue updates. Issues and snippets are the
+only models with full Spam and CAPTCHA support.
+
+### Initial setup
+
+1. Create an API token.
+1. Export it in your terminal for the REST commands: `export PRIVATE_TOKEN=<your_api_token>`
+1. Ensure you are logged into GitLab development environment at `localhost:3000` before using GraphiQL explorer,
+ because it uses your logged-in user as authorization for running GraphQL queries.
+1. For the GraphQL examples, use the GraphiQL explorer at `http://localhost:3000/-/graphql-explorer`.
+1. Use the `--include` (`-i`) option to `curl` to print the HTTP response headers, including the status code.
+
+### Scenario: Akismet and CAPTCHA enabled
+
+In this example, Akismet and CAPTCHA are enabled:
+
+1. [Initial request](#initial-request).

+GraphQL request:
+
+```graphql

+```
+
+GraphQL request:
+
+NOTE:
+The GitLab GraphiQL implementation doesn't allow passing of headers, so we must write
+this as a `curl` query. Here, `--data-binary` is used to properly handle escaped double quotes
+in the JSON-embedded query.
+
+```shell

+```
+
+GraphQL response:
+
+```json
+{"data":{"createSnippet":{"snippet":{"id":"gid://gitlab/PersonalSnippet/42","title":"Title"},"errors":[]}}}
+```
+
+### Scenario: Akismet enabled, CAPTCHA disabled
+
+For this scenario, ensure you clear **Enable reCAPTCHA** in the Admin Area settings as described above.
+If CAPTCHA is not enabled, any request flagged as potential spam fails with no chance to resubmit,
+even if it could otherwise be resubmitted if CAPTCHA were enabled and successfully solved.
+
+The REST request is the same as if CAPTCHA was enabled:
+
+```shell
+curl --request POST --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: $PRIVATE_TOKEN" "http://localhost:3000/api/v4/snippets?title=Title&file_name=FileName&content=Content&visibility=public"
+```
+
+REST response:

+
+GraphQL request:
+
+```graphql
+mutation {
+ createSnippet(input: {
+ title: "Title"
+ visibilityLevel: public
+ blobActions: [
+ {
+ action: create
+ filePath: "BlobPath"
+ content: "BlobContent"
+ }
+ ]
+ }) {
+ snippet {
+ id
+ title
+ }
+ errors
+ }
+}
+```
+
+GraphQL response:
+
+```json
+{

+```
+
+### Scenario: allow_possible_spam feature flag enabled
+
+With the `allow_possible_spam` feature flag enabled, the API returns a 200 response. Any

+# GraphQL API spam protection and CAPTCHA support
+
+If the model can be modified via the GraphQL API, you must also add support to all of the
+relevant GraphQL mutations which may modify spammable or spam-related attributes. This
+definitely includes the `Create` and `Update` mutations, but may also include others, such as those
+related to changing a model's confidential/public flag.
+
+## Add support to the GraphQL mutations
+
+This implementation is very similar to the controller implementation. You create a `spam_params`
+instance based on the request, and pass it to the relevant Service class constructor.
+
+The three main differences from the controller implementation are:
+
+1. Use `include Mutations::SpamProtection` instead of `...JsonFormatActionsSupport`.
+1. Obtain the request from the context via `context[:request]` when creating the `SpamParams`
+ instance.
+1. After you create or updated the `Spammable` model instance, call `#check_spam_action_response!`
+ and pass it the model instance. This call will:
+ 1. Perform the necessary spam checks on the model.
+ 1. If spam is detected:
+ - Raise a `GraphQL::ExecutionError` exception.
+ - Include the relevant information added as error fields to the response via the `extensions:` parameter.
+ For more details on these fields, refer to the section on
+ [Spam and CAPTCHA support in the GraphQL API](../../api/graphql/index.md#resolve-mutations-detected-as-spam).
+
+ NOTE:
+ If you use the standard ApolloLink or Axios interceptor CAPTCHA support described
+ above, the field details are unimportant. They become important if you
+ attempt to use the GraphQL API directly to process a failed check for potential spam, and
+ resubmit the request with a solved CAPTCHA response.
+
+For example:
+
+```ruby
+module Mutations
+ module Widgets
+ class Create < BaseMutation
+ include Mutations::SpamProtection
+
+ def resolve(args)
+ spam_params = ::Spam::SpamParams.new_from_request(request: context[:request])
+
+ service_response = ::Widgets::CreateService.new(
+ project: project,
+ current_user: current_user,
+ params: args,
+ spam_params: spam_params
+ ).execute
+
+ widget = service_response.payload[:widget]
+ check_spam_action_response!(widget)
+
+ # If possible spam wasdetected, an exception would have been thrown by
+ # `#check_spam_action_response!`, so the normal resolve return logic can follow below.
+ end
+ end
+ end
+end

+# Spam protection and CAPTCHA
+
+This guide provides an overview of how to add spam protection and CAPTCHA support to new areas of the
+GitLab application.
+
+## Add spam protection and CAPTCHA support to a new area
+
+To add this support, you must implement the following areas as applicable:
+
+1. [Model and Services](model_and_services.md): The basic prerequisite
+ changes to the backend code which are required to add spam or CAPTCHA API and UI support
+ for a feature which does not yet have support.
+1. REST API (Supported, documentation coming soon): The changes needed to add
+ spam or CAPTCHA support to Grape REST API endpoints. Refer to the related
+ [REST API documentation](../../api/index.md#resolve-requests-detected-as-spam).
+1. [GraphQL API](graphql_api.md): The changes needed to add spam or CAPTCHA support to GraphQL
+ mutations. Refer to the related
+ [GraphQL API documentation](../../api/graphql/index.md#resolve-mutations-detected-as-spam).
+1. [Web UI](web_ui.md): The various possible scenarios encountered when adding
+ spam/CAPTCHA support to the web UI, depending on whether the UI is JavaScript API-based (Vue or
+ plain JavaScript) or HTML-form (HAML) based.
+
+You should also perform manual exploratory testing of the new feature. Refer to
+[Exploratory testing](exploratory_testing.md) for more information.
+
+## Spam-related model and API fields
+
+Multiple levels of spam flagging determine how spam is handled. These levels are referenced in
+[`Spam::SpamConstants`](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/blob/master/app/services/spam/spam_constants.rb#L4-4),
+and used various places in the application, such as
+[`Spam::SpamActionService#perform_spam_service_check`](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/blob/d7585b56c9e7dc69414af306d82906e28befe7da/app/services/spam/spam_action_service.rb#L61-61).
+
+The possible values include:
+
+- `BLOCK_USER`
+- `DISALLOW`
+- `CONDITIONAL_ALLOW`
+- `OVERRIDE_VIA_ALLOW_POSSIBLE_SPAM`
+- `ALLOW`
+- `NOOP`

+first add the necessary support to:
+
+1. The backend ActiveRecord models.
+1. The services layer.
+
+All or most of the following changes are required, regardless of the type of spam or CAPTCHA request
+implementation you are supporting. Some newer features which are completely based on the GraphQL API
+may not have any controllers, and don't require you to add the `mark_as_spam` action to the controller.
+
+To do this:
+
+1. [Add `Spammable` support to the ActiveRecord model](#add-spammable-support-to-the-activerecord-model).
+1. [Add support for the `mark_as_spam` action to the controller](#add-support-for-the-mark_as_spam-action-to-the-controller).
+1. [Add a call to SpamActionService to the execute method of services](#add-a-call-to-spamactionservice-to-the-execute-method-of-services).
+
+## Add `Spammable` support to the ActiveRecord model
+
+1. Include the `Spammable` module in the model class:
+
+ ```ruby
+ include Spammable
+ ```
+
+1. Add: `attr_spammable` to indicate which fields can be checked for spam. Up to
+ two fields per model are supported: a "`title`" and a "`description`". You can
+ designate which fields to consider the "`title`" or "`description`". For example,
+ this line designates the `content` field as the `description`:
+
+ ```ruby
+ attr_spammable :content, spam_description: true
+ ```
+
+1. Add a `#check_for_spam?` method implementation:
+
+ ```ruby
+ def check_for_spam?(user:)
+ # Return a boolean result based on various applicable checks, which may include
+ # which attributes have changed, the type of user, whether the data is publicly
+ # visible, and other criteria. This may vary based on the type of model, and
+ # may change over time as spam checking requirements evolve.
+ end
+ ```
+
+ Refer to other existing `Spammable` models'
+ implementations of this method for examples of the required logic checks.
+
+## Add support for the `mark_as_spam` action to the controller
+
+The `SpammableActions::AkismetMarkAsSpamAction` module adds support for a `#mark_as_spam` action
+to a controller. This controller allows administrators to manage spam for the associated
+`Spammable` model in the [Spam Log section](../../integration/akismet.md) of the Admin Area page.
+
+1. Include the `SpammableActions::AkismetMarkAsSpamAction` module in the controller.
+
+ ```ruby
+ include SpammableActions::AkismetMarkAsSpamAction
+ ```
+
+1. Add a `#spammable_path` method implementation. The spam administration page redirects
+ to this page after edits. Refer to other existing controllers' implementations
+ of this method for examples of the type of path logic required. In general, it should
+ be the `#show` action for the `Spammable` model's controller.
+
+ ```ruby
+ def spammable_path
+ widget_path(widget)
+ end
+ ```
+
+NOTE:
+There may be other changes needed to controllers, depending on how the feature is
+implemented. See [Web UI](web_ui.md) for more details.
+
+## Add a call to SpamActionService to the execute method of services
+
+This approach applies to any service which can persist spammable attributes:
+
+1. In the relevant Create or Update service under `app/services`, pass in a populated
+ `Spam::SpamParams` instance. (Refer to instructions later on in this page.)
+1. Use it and the `Spammable` model instance to execute a `Spam::SpamActionService` instance.
+1. If the spam check fails:
+ - An error is added to the model, which causes it to be invalid and prevents it from being saved.
+ - The `needs_recaptcha` property is set to `true`.
+
+ These changes to the model enable it for handling by the subsequent backend and frontend CAPTCHA logic.
+
+Make these changes to each relevant service:
+
+1. Change the constructor to take a `spam_params:` argument as a required named argument.
+
+ Using named arguments for the constructor helps you identify all the calls to
+ the constructor that need changing. It's less risky because the interpreter raises
+ type errors unless the caller is changed to pass the `spam_params` argument.
+ If you use an IDE (such as RubyMine) which supports this, your
+ IDE flags it as an error in the editor.
+
+1. In the constructor, set the `@spam_params` instance variable from the `spam_params` constructor
+ argument. Add an `attr_reader: :spam_params` in the `private` section of the class.
+
+1. In the `execute` method, add a call to execute the `Spam::SpamActionService`.
+ (You can also use `before_create` or `before_update`, if the service
+ uses that pattern.) This method uses named arguments, so its usage is clear if
+ you refer to existing examples. However, two important considerations exist:
+ 1. The `SpamActionService` must be executed _after_ all necessary changes are made to
+ the unsaved (and dirty) `Spammable` model instance. This ordering ensures
+ spammable attributes exist to be spam-checked.
+ 1. The `SpamActionService` must be executed _before_ the model is checked for errors and
+ attempting a `save`. If potential spam is detected in the model's changed attributes, we must prevent a save.
+
+```ruby
+module Widget
+ class CreateService < ::Widget::BaseService
+ # NOTE: We require the spam_params and do not default it to nil, because
+ # spam_checking is likely to be necessary. However, if there is not a request available in scope
+ # in the caller (for example, a note created via email) and the required arguments to the
+ # SpamParams constructor are not otherwise available, spam_params: must be explicitly passed as nil.
+ def initialize(project:, current_user: nil, params: {}, spam_params:)
+ super(project: project, current_user: current_user, params: params)
+
+ @spam_params = spam_params
+ end
+
+ def execute
+ widget = Widget::BuildService.new(project, current_user, params).execute
+
+ # More code that may manipulate dirty model before it is spam checked.
+
+ # NOTE: do this AFTER the spammable model is instantiated, but BEFORE
+ # it is validated or saved.
+ Spam::SpamActionService.new(
+ spammable: widget,
+ spam_params: spam_params,
+ user: current_user,
+ # Or `action: :update` for a UpdateService or service for an existing model.
+ action: :create
+ ).execute
+
+ # Possibly more code related to saving model, but should not change any attributes.
+
+ widget.save
+ end
+
+ private
+
+ attr_reader :spam_params
+```

+# Web UI spam protection and CAPTCHA support
+
+The approach for adding spam protection and CAPTCHA support to a new UI area of the GitLab application
+depends upon how the existing code is implemented.
+
+## Supported scenarios of request submissions
+
+Three different scenarios are supported. Two are used with JavaScript XHR/Fetch requests
+for either Apollo or Axios, and one is used only with standard HTML form requests:
+
+1. A JavaScript-based submission (possibly via Vue)
+ 1. Using Apollo (GraphQL API via Fetch/XHR request)
+ 1. Using Axios (REST API via Fetch/XHR request)
+1. A standard HTML form submission (HTML request)
+
+Some parts of the implementation depend upon which of these scenarios you must support.
+
+## Implementation tasks specific to JavaScript XHR/Fetch requests
+
+Two approaches are fully supported:
+
+1. Apollo, using the GraphQL API.
+1. Axios, using either the GraphQL API.
+
+The spam and CAPTCHA-related data communication between the frontend and backend requires no
+additional fields being added to the models. Instead, communication is handled:
+
+- Through custom header values in the request.
+- Through top-level JSON fields in the response.
+
+The spam and CAPTCHA-related logic is also cleanly abstracted into reusable modules and helper methods
+which can wrap existing logic, and only alter the existing flow if potential spam
+is detected or a CAPTCHA display is needed. This approach allows the spam and CAPTCHA
+support to be easily added to new areas of the application with minimal changes to
+existing logic. In the case of the frontend, potentially **zero** changes are needed!
+
+On the frontend, this is handled abstractly and transparently using `ApolloLink` for Apollo, and an
+Axios interceptor for Axios. The CAPTCHA display is handled by a standard GitLab UI / Pajamas modal
+component. You can find all the relevant frontend code under `app/assets/javascripts/captcha`.
+
+However, even though the actual handling of the request interception and
+modal is transparent, without any mandatory changes to the involved JavaScript or Vue components
+for the form or page, changes in request or error handling may be required. Changes are needed
+because the existing behavior may not work correctly: for example, if a failed or cancelled
+CAPTCHA display interrupts the normal request flow or UI updates.
+Careful exploratory testing of all scenarios is important to uncover any potential
+problems.
+
+This sequence diagram illustrates the normal CAPTCHA flow for JavaScript XHR/Fetch requests
+on the frontend:
+
+```mermaid
+sequenceDiagram
+ participant U as User
+ participant V as Vue/JS Application
+ participant A as ApolloLink or Axios Interceptor
+ participant G as GitLab API
+ U->>V: Save model
+ V->>A: Request
+ A->>G: Request
+ G--xA: Response with error and spam/CAPTCHA related fields
+ A->>U: CAPTCHA presented in modal
+ U->>A: CAPTCHA solved to obtain valid CAPTCHA response
+ A->>G: Request with valid CAPTCHA response and SpamLog ID in headers
+ G-->>A: Response with success
+ A-->>V: Response with success
+```
+
+The backend is also cleanly abstracted via mixin modules and helper methods. The three main
+changes required to the relevant backend controller actions (normally just `create`/`update`) are:
+
+1. Create a `SpamParams` parameter object instance based on the request, using the simple static
+ `#new_from_request` factory method. This method takes a request, and returns a `SpamParams` instance.
+1. Pass the created `SpamParams` instance as the `spam_params` named argument to the
+ Service class constructor, which you should have already added. If the spam check indicates
+ the changes to the model are possibly spam, then:
+ - An error is added to the model.
+ - The `needs_recaptcha` property on the model is set to true.
+1. Wrap the existing controller action return value (rendering or redirecting) in a block passed to
+ a `#with_captcha_check_json_format` helper method, which transparently handles:
+ 1. Check if CAPTCHA is enabled, and if so, proceeding with the next step.
+ 1. Checking if there the model contains an error, and the `needs_recaptcha` flag is true.
+ - If yes: Add the appropriate spam or CAPTCHA fields to the JSON response, and return
+ a `409 - Conflict` HTTP status code.
+ - If no (if CAPTCHA is disabled or if no spam was detected): The normal request return
+ logic passed in the block is run.
+
+Thanks to the abstractions, it's more straightforward to implement than it is to explain it.
+You don't have to worry much about the hidden details!
+
+Make these changes:
+
+## Add support to the controller actions
+
+If the feature's frontend submits directly to controller actions, and does not only use the GraphQL
+API, then you must add support to the appropriate controllers.
+
+The action methods may be directly in the controller class, or they may be abstracted
+to a module included in the controller class. Our example uses a module. The
+only difference when directly modifying the controller:
+`extend ActiveSupport::Concern` is not required.
+
+```ruby
+module WidgetsActions
+ # NOTE: This `extend` probably already exists, but it MUST be moved to occur BEFORE all
+ # `include` statements. Otherwise, confusing bugs may occur in which the methods
+ # in the included modules cannot be found.
+ extend ActiveSupport::Concern
+
+ include SpammableActions::CaptchaCheck::JsonFormatActionsSupport
+
+ def create
+ spam_params = ::Spam::SpamParams.new_from_request(request: request)
+ widget = ::Widgets::CreateService.new(
+ project: project,
+ current_user: current_user,
+ params: params,
+ spam_params: spam_params
+ ).execute
+
+ respond_to do |format|
+ format.json do
+ with_captcha_check_json_format do
+ # The action's existing `render json: ...` (or wrapper method) and related logic. Possibly
+ # including different rendering cases if the model is valid or not. It's all wrapped here
+ # within the `with_captcha_check_json_format` block. For example:
+ if widget.valid?
+ render json: serializer.represent(widget)
+ else
+ render json: { errors: widget.errors.full_messages }, status: :unprocessable_entity
+ end
+ end
+ end
+ end
+ end
+end
+```
+
+## Implementation tasks specific to HTML form requests
+
+Some areas of the application have not been converted to use the GraphQL API via
+a JavaScript client, but instead rely on standard Rails HAML form submissions via an
+`HTML` MIME type request. In these areas, the action returns a pre-rendered HTML (HAML) page
+as the response body. Unfortunately, in this case
+[it is not possible](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/merge_requests/66427#note_636989204)
+to use any of the JavaScript-based frontend support as described above. Instead we must use an
+alternate approach which handles the rendering of the CAPTCHA form via a HAML template.
+
+Everything is still cleanly abstracted, and the implementation in the backend
+controllers is virtually identical to the JavaScript/JSON based approach. Replace the
+word `JSON` with `HTML` (using the appropriate case) in the module names and helper methods.
+
+The action methods might be directly in the controller, or they
+might be in a module. In this example, they are directly in the
+controller, and we also do an `update` method instead of `create`:
+
+```ruby
+class WidgetsController < ApplicationController
+ include SpammableActions::CaptchaCheck::HtmlFormatActionsSupport
+
+ def update
+ # Existing logic to find the `widget` model instance...
+
+ spam_params = ::Spam::SpamParams.new_from_request(request: request)
+ ::Widgets::UpdateService.new(
+ project: project,
+ current_user: current_user,
+ params: params,
+ spam_params: spam_params
+ ).execute(widget)
+
+ respond_to do |format|
+ format.html do
+ if widget.valid?
+ # NOTE: `spammable_path` is required by the `SpammableActions::AkismetMarkAsSpamAction`
+ # module, and it should have already been implemented on this controller according to
+ # the instructions above. It is reused here to avoid duplicating the route helper call.
+ redirect_to spammable_path
+ else
+ # If we got here, there were errors on the model instance - from a failed spam check
+ # and/or other validation errors on the model. Either way, we'll re-render the form,
+ # and if a CAPTCHA render is necessary, it will be automatically handled by
+ # `with_captcha_check_html_format`
+ with_captcha_check_html_format { render :edit }
+ end
+ end
+ end
+ end
+end
+```

-## Guide to run and debug Monitor tests
-
-### How to set up
-
-To run the Monitor tests locally, against the GDK, please follow the preparation steps below:
-
-1. Complete the [Prerequisites](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-development-kit/-/blob/main/doc/howto/auto_devops/index.md#prerequisites-for-gitlab-team-members-only), at least through step 5. Note that the monitor tests do not require permissions to work with GKE because they use [k3s as a Kubernetes cluster provider](https://github.com/rancher/k3s).
-1. The test setup deploys the app in a Kubernetes cluster, using the Auto DevOps deployment strategy.
-To enable Auto DevOps in GDK, follow the [associated setup](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-development-kit/-/blob/main/doc/howto/auto_devops/index.md#setup) instructions. If you have problems, review the [troubleshooting guide](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-development-kit/-/blob/main/doc/howto/auto_devops/tips_and_troubleshooting.md) or reach out to the `#gdk` channel in the internal GitLab Slack.
-1. Do [secure your GitLab instance](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-development-kit/-/blob/main/doc/howto/auto_devops/index.md#secure-your-gitlab-instance) since it is now publicly accessible on `https://[YOUR-PORT].qa-tunnel.gitlab.info`.
-1. Install the Kubernetes command line tool known as `kubectl`. Use the [official installation instructions](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/tools/).
-
-You might see NGINX issues when you run `gdk start` or `gdk restart`. In that case, run `sft login` to revalidate your credentials and regain access the QA Tunnel.
-
-### How to run
-
-Navigate to the folder in `/your-gdk/gitlab/qa` and issue the command:
-
-```shell
-QA_DEBUG=true WEBDRIVER_HEADLESS=false GITLAB_ADMIN_USERNAME=rootusername GITLAB_ADMIN_PASSWORD=rootpassword GITLAB_QA_ACCESS_TOKEN=your_token_here GITLAB_QA_ADMIN_ACCESS_TOKEN=your_token_here CLUSTER_API_URL=https://kubernetes.docker.internal:6443 bundle exec bin/qa Test::Instance::All https://[YOUR-PORT].qa-tunnel.gitlab.info/ -- qa/specs/features/browser_ui/8_monitor/all_monitor_core_features_spec.rb --tag kubernetes --tag orchestrated --tag requires_admin
-```
-
-The following includes more information on the command:
-
-- `QA_DEBUG` - Set to `true` to verbosely log page object actions.
-- `WEBDRIVER_HEADLESS` - When running locally, set to `false` to allow browser tests to be visible - watch your tests being run.
-- `GITLAB_ADMIN_USERNAME` - Administrator username to use when adding a license.
-- `GITLAB_ADMIN_PASSWORD` - Administrator password to use when adding a license.
-- `GITLAB_QA_ACCESS_TOKEN` and `GITLAB_QA_ADMIN_ACCESS_TOKEN` - A valid personal access token with the `api` scope. This is used for API access during tests, and is used in the version that staging is currently running. The `ADMIN_ACCESS_TOKEN` is from a user with administrator access. Used for API access as an administrator during tests.
-- `CLUSTER_API_URL` - Use the address `https://kubernetes.docker.internal:6443` . This address is used to enable the cluster to be network accessible while deploying using Auto DevOps.
-- `https://[YOUR-PORT].qa-tunnel.gitlab.info/` - The address of your local GDK
-- `qa/specs/features/browser_ui/8_monitor/all_monitor_core_features_spec.rb` - The path to the monitor core specs
-- `--tag` - the meta-tags used to filter the specs correctly
-
-At the moment of this writing, there are two specs which run monitor tests:
-
-- `qa/specs/features/browser_ui/8_monitor/all_monitor_core_features_spec.rb` - has the specs of features in GitLab Free
-- `qa/specs/features/ee/browser_ui/8_monitor/all_monitor_features_spec.rb` - has the specs of features for paid GitLab (Enterprise Edition)
-
-### How to debug
-
-The monitor tests follow this setup flow:
-
-1. Creates a k3s cluster on your local machine.
-1. Creates a project that has Auto DevOps enabled and uses an Express template (NodeJS) for the app to be deployed.
-1. Associates the created cluster to the project and installs GitLab Runner, Prometheus and Ingress which are the needed components for a successful deployment.
-1. Creates a CI pipeline with 2 jobs (`build` and `production`) to deploy the app on the Kubernetes cluster.
-1. Goes to Operation > Metrics menu to verify data is being received and the app is being monitored successfully.
-
-The test requires a number of components. The setup requires time to collect the metrics of a real deployment.
-The complexity of the setup may lead to problems unrelated to the app. The following sections include common strategies to debug possible issues.
-
-#### Deployment with Auto DevOps
-
-When debugging issues in the CI or locally in the CLI, open the Kubernetes job in the pipeline.
-In the job log window, click on the top right icon labeled as *"Show complete raw"* to reveal raw job logs.
-You can now search through the logs for *Job log*, which matches delimited sections like this one:
-
-```shell
-------- Job log: -------
-```
-
-A Job log is a subsection within these logs, related to app deployment. We use two jobs: `build` and `production`.
-You can find the root causes of deployment failures in these logs, which can compromise the entire test.
-If a `build` job fails, the `production` job doesn't run, and the test fails.
-
-The long test setup does not take screenshots of failures, which is a known [issue](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/quality/team-tasks/-/issues/270).
-However, if the spec fails (after a successful deployment) then you should be able to find screenshots which display the feature failure.
-To access them in CI, go to the main job log window, look on the left side panel's Job artifacts section, and click Browse.
-
-#### Common issues
-
-**Container Registry**
-
-When enabling Auto DevOps in the GDK, you may see issues with the Container Registry, which stores
-images of the app to be deployed.
-
-You can access the Registry is available by opening an existing project. On the left hand menu,
-select `Packages & Registries > Container Registries`. If the Registry is available, this page should load normally.
-
-Also, the Registry should be running in Docker:
-
-```shell
-$ docker ps
-
-CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
-f035f339506c registry.gitlab.com/gitlab-org/build/cng/gitlab-container-registry:v2.9.1-gitlab "/bin/sh -c 'exec /b…" 3 hours ago Up 3 hours 0.0.0.0:5000->5000/tcp jovial_proskuriakova
-```
-
-The `gdk status` command shows if the registry is running:
-
-```shell
-run: ./services/registry: (pid 2662) 10875s, normally down; run: log: (pid 65148) 177993s
-run: ./services/tunnel_gitlab: (pid 2650) 10875s, normally down; run: log: (pid 65154) 177993s
-run: ./services/tunnel_registry: (pid 2651) 10875s, normally down; run: log: (pid 65155) 177993s
-```
-
-Also, restarting Docker and then, on the Terminal, issue the command
-`docker login https://[YOUR-REGISTRY-PORT].qa-tunnel.gitlab.info:443` and use
-the GDK credentials to sign in. Note that the Registry port and GDK port aren't
-the same. When configuring Auto DevOps in GDK, the `gdk reconfigure` command
-outputs the port of the Registry:
-
-```shell
-*********************************************
-Tunnel URLs
-
-GitLab: https://[PORT].qa-tunnel.gitlab.info
-Registry: https://[PORT].qa-tunnel.gitlab.info
-*********************************************
-```
-
-These Tunnel URLs are used by the QA SSH Tunnel generated when enabling Auto DevOps on the GDK.
-
-**Pod Eviction**
-
-Pod eviction happens when a node in a Kubernetes cluster is running out of memory or disk. After many local deployments this issue can happen. The UI shows that installing Prometheus, GitLab Runner and Ingress failed. How to be sure it is an Eviction? While the test is running, open another Terminal window and debug the current Kubernetes cluster by `kubectl get pods --all-namespaces`. If you observe that Pods have *Evicted status* such as the install-runner here:
-
-```shell
-$ kubectl get pods --all-namespaces
-
-NAMESPACE NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
-gitlab-managed-apps install-ingress 0/1 Pending 0 25s
-gitlab-managed-apps install-prometheus 0/1 Pending 0 12s
-gitlab-managed-apps install-runner 0/1 Evicted 0 75s
-```
-
-You can free some memory with either of the following commands: `docker prune system` or `docker prune volume`.
-

-# Uploads development documentation
+This document was moved to [another location](uploads/index.md).
-[GitLab Workhorse](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-workhorse) has special rules for handling uploads.
-We process the upload in Workhorse to prevent occupying a Ruby process on I/O operations and because it is cheaper.
-This process can also directly upload to object storage.
-
-## The problem description
-
-The following graph explains machine boundaries in a scalable GitLab installation. Without any Workhorse optimization in place, we can expect incoming requests to follow the numbers on the arrows.
-
-```mermaid
-graph TB
- subgraph "load balancers"
- LB(Proxy)
- end
-
- subgraph "Shared storage"
- nfs(NFS)
- end
-
- subgraph "redis cluster"
- r(persisted redis)
- end
- LB-- 1 -->Workhorse
-
- subgraph "web or API fleet"
- Workhorse-- 2 -->rails
- end
- rails-- "3 (write files)" -->nfs
- rails-- "4 (schedule a job)" -->r
-
- subgraph sidekiq
- s(sidekiq)
- end
- s-- "5 (fetch a job)" -->r
- s-- "6 (read files)" -->nfs
-```
-
-We have three challenges here: performance, availability, and scalability.
-
-### Performance
-
-Rails process are expensive in terms of both CPU and memory. Ruby [global interpreter lock](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_interpreter_lock) adds to cost too because the Ruby process spends time on I/O operations on step 3 causing incoming requests to pile up.
-
-In order to improve this, [disk buffered upload](#disk-buffered-upload) was implemented. With this, Rails no longer deals with writing uploaded files to disk.
-
-```mermaid
-graph TB
- subgraph "load balancers"
- LB(HA Proxy)
- end
-
- subgraph "Shared storage"
- nfs(NFS)
- end
-
- subgraph "redis cluster"
- r(persisted redis)
- end
- LB-- 1 -->Workhorse
-
- subgraph "web or API fleet"
- Workhorse-- "3 (without files)" -->rails
- end
- Workhorse -- "2 (write files)" -->nfs
- rails-- "4 (schedule a job)" -->r
-
- subgraph sidekiq
- s(sidekiq)
- end
- s-- "5 (fetch a job)" -->r
- s-- "6 (read files)" -->nfs
-```
-
-### Availability
-
-There's also an availability problem in this setup, NFS is a [single point of failure](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single_point_of_failure).
-
-To address this problem an HA object storage can be used and it's supported by [direct upload](#direct-upload)
-
-### Scalability
-
-Scaling NFS is outside of our support scope, and NFS is not a part of cloud native installations.
-
-All features that require Sidekiq and do not use direct upload doesn't work without NFS. In Kubernetes, machine boundaries translate to PODs, and in this case the uploaded file is written into the POD private disk. Since Sidekiq POD cannot reach into other pods, the operation fails to read it.
-
-## How to select the proper level of acceleration?
-
-Selecting the proper acceleration is a tradeoff between speed of development and operational costs.
-
-We can identify three major use-cases for an upload:
-
-1. **storage:** if we are uploading for storing a file (like artifacts, packages, or discussion attachments). In this case [direct upload](#direct-upload) is the proper level as it's the less resource-intensive operation. Additional information can be found on [File Storage in GitLab](file_storage.md).
-1. **in-controller/synchronous processing:** if we allow processing **small files** synchronously, using [disk buffered upload](#disk-buffered-upload) may speed up development.
-1. **Sidekiq/asynchronous processing:** Asynchronous processing must implement [direct upload](#direct-upload), the reason being that it's the only way to support Cloud Native deployments without a shared NFS.
-
-For more details about currently broken feature see [epic &1802](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/1802).
-
-### Handling repository uploads
-
-Some features involves Git repository uploads without using a regular Git client.
-Some examples are uploading a repository file from the web interface and [design management](../user/project/issues/design_management.md).
-
-Those uploads requires the rails controller to act as a Git client in lieu of the user.
-Those operation falls into _in-controller/synchronous processing_ category, but we have no warranties on the file size.
-
-In case of a LFS upload, the file pointer is committed synchronously, but file upload to object storage is performed asynchronously with Sidekiq.
-
-## Upload encodings
-
-By upload encoding we mean how the file is included within the incoming request.
-
-We have three kinds of file encoding in our uploads:
-
-1. <i class="fa fa-check-circle"></i> **multipart**: `multipart/form-data` is the most common, a file is encoded as a part of a multipart encoded request.
-1. <i class="fa fa-check-circle"></i> **body**: some APIs uploads files as the whole request body.
-1. <i class="fa fa-times-circle"></i> **JSON**: some JSON APIs upload files as base64-encoded strings. This requires a change to GitLab Workhorse,
- which is tracked [in this issue](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/325068).
-
-## Uploading technologies
-
-By uploading technologies we mean how all the involved services interact with each other.
-
-GitLab supports 3 kinds of uploading technologies, here follows a brief description with a sequence diagram for each one. Diagrams are not meant to be exhaustive.
-
-### Rack Multipart upload
-
-This is the default kind of upload, and it's the most expensive in terms of resources.
-
-In this case, Workhorse is unaware of files being uploaded and acts as a regular proxy.
-
-When a multipart request reaches the rails application, `Rack::Multipart` leaves behind temporary files in `/tmp` and uses valuable Ruby process time to copy files around.
-
-```mermaid
-sequenceDiagram
- participant c as Client
- participant w as Workhorse
- participant r as Rails
-
- activate c
- c ->>+w: POST /some/url/upload
- w->>+r: POST /some/url/upload
-
- r->>r: save the incoming file on /tmp
- r->>r: read the file for processing
-
- r-->>-c: request result
- deactivate c
- deactivate w
-```
-
-### Disk buffered upload
-
-This kind of upload avoids wasting resources caused by handling upload writes to `/tmp` in rails.
-
-This optimization is not active by default on REST API requests.
-
-When enabled, Workhorse looks for files in multipart MIME requests, uploading
-any it finds to a temporary file on shared storage. The MIME data in the request
-is replaced with the path to the corresponding file before it is forwarded to
-Rails.
-
-To prevent abuse of this feature, Workhorse signs the modified request with a
-special header, stating which entries it modified. Rails ignores any
-unsigned path entries.
-
-```mermaid
-sequenceDiagram
- participant c as Client
- participant w as Workhorse
- participant r as Rails
- participant s as NFS
-
- activate c
- c ->>+w: POST /some/url/upload
-
- w->>+s: save the incoming file on a temporary location
- s-->>-w: request result
-
- w->>+r: POST /some/url/upload
- Note over w,r: file was replaced with its location<br>and other metadata
-
- opt requires async processing
- r->>+redis: schedule a job
- redis-->>-r: job is scheduled
- end
-
- r-->>-c: request result
- deactivate c
- w->>-w: cleanup
-
- opt requires async processing
- activate sidekiq
- sidekiq->>+redis: fetch a job
- redis-->>-sidekiq: job
-
- sidekiq->>+s: read file
- s-->>-sidekiq: file
-
- sidekiq->>sidekiq: process file
-
- deactivate sidekiq
- end
-```
-
-### Direct upload
-
-This is the more advanced acceleration technique we have in place.
-
-Workhorse asks Rails for temporary pre-signed object storage URLs and directly uploads to object storage.
-
-In this setup, an extra Rails route must be implemented in order to handle authorization. Examples of this can be found in:
-
-- [`Projects::LfsStorageController`](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/cc723071ad337573e0360a879cbf99bc4fb7adb9/app/controllers/projects/lfs_storage_controller.rb)
- and [its routes](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/cc723071ad337573e0360a879cbf99bc4fb7adb9/config/routes/git_http.rb#L31-32).
-- [API endpoints for uploading packages](packages.md#file-uploads).
-
-Direct upload falls back to _disk buffered upload_ when `direct_upload` is disabled inside the [object storage setting](../administration/uploads.md#object-storage-settings).
-The answer to the `/authorize` call contains only a file system path.
-
-```mermaid
-sequenceDiagram
- participant c as Client
- participant w as Workhorse
- participant r as Rails
- participant os as Object Storage
-
- activate c
- c ->>+w: POST /some/url/upload

- Note over w,r: this request has an empty body
- r-->>-w: presigned OS URL
-
- w->>+os: PUT file
- Note over w,os: file is stored on a temporary location. Rails select the destination
- os-->>-w: request result

-

- os-->>-r: request result
-

- r->>+redis: schedule a job
- redis-->>-r: job is scheduled
- end
-
- r-->>-c: request result
- deactivate c
- w->>-w: cleanup
-
- opt requires async processing
- activate sidekiq
- sidekiq->>+redis: fetch a job
- redis-->>-sidekiq: job
-
- sidekiq->>+os: get object
- os-->>-sidekiq: file
-
- sidekiq->>sidekiq: process file
-
- deactivate sidekiq
- end
-```
-
-## How to add a new upload route
-
-In this section, we describe how to add a new upload route [accelerated](#uploading-technologies) by Workhorse for [body and multipart](#upload-encodings) encoded uploads.
-
-Upload routes belong to one of these categories:
-
-1. Rails controllers: uploads handled by Rails controllers.
-1. Grape API: uploads handled by a Grape API endpoint.
-1. GraphQL API: uploads handled by a GraphQL resolve function.
-
-WARNING:
-GraphQL uploads do not support [direct upload](#direct-upload) yet. Depending on the use case, the feature may not work on installations without NFS (like GitLab.com or Kubernetes installations). Uploading to object storage inside the GraphQL resolve function may result in timeout errors. For more details please follow [issue #280819](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/280819).
-
-### Update Workhorse for the new route
-
-For both the Rails controller and Grape API uploads, Workhorse has to be updated in order to get the
-support for the new upload route.
-
-1. Open a new issue in the [Workhorse tracker](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-workhorse/-/issues/new) describing precisely the new upload route:
- - The route's URL.
- - The [upload encoding](#upload-encodings).
- - If possible, provide a dump of the upload request.
-1. Implement and get the MR merged for this issue above.
-1. Ask the Maintainers of [Workhorse](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-workhorse) to create a new release. You can do that in the MR
- directly during the maintainer review or ask for it in the `#workhorse` Slack channel.
-1. Bump the [Workhorse version file](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/master/GITLAB_WORKHORSE_VERSION)
- to the version you have from the previous points, or bump it in the same merge request that contains
- the Rails changes (see [Implementing the new route with a Rails controller](#implementing-the-new-route-with-a-rails-controller) or [Implementing the new route with a Grape API endpoint](#implementing-the-new-route-with-a-grape-api-endpoint) below).
-
-### Implementing the new route with a Rails controller
-
-For a Rails controller upload, we usually have a [multipart](#upload-encodings) upload and there are a
-few things to do:
-
-1. The upload is available under the parameter name you're using. For example, it could be an `artifact`
- or a nested parameter such as `user[avatar]`. Let's say that we have the upload under the
- `file` parameter, reading `params[:file]` should get you an [`UploadedFile`](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/master/lib/uploaded_file.rb) instance.
-1. Generally speaking, it's a good idea to check if the instance is from the [`UploadedFile`](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/master/lib/uploaded_file.rb) class. For example, see how we checked
-[that the parameter is indeed an `UploadedFile`](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/commit/ea30fe8a71bf16ba07f1050ab4820607b5658719#51c0cc7a17b7f12c32bc41cfab3649ff2739b0eb_79_77).
-
-WARNING:
-**Do not** call `UploadedFile#from_params` directly! Do not build an [`UploadedFile`](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/master/lib/uploaded_file.rb)
-instance using `UploadedFile#from_params`! This method can be unsafe to use depending on the `params`
-passed. Instead, use the [`UploadedFile`](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/master/lib/uploaded_file.rb)
-instance that [`multipart.rb`](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/master/lib/gitlab/middleware/multipart.rb)
-builds automatically for you.
-
-### Implementing the new route with a Grape API endpoint
-
-For a Grape API upload, we can have [body or a multipart](#upload-encodings) upload. Things are slightly more complicated: two endpoints are needed. One for the
-Workhorse pre-upload authorization and one for accepting the upload metadata from Workhorse:
-
-1. Implement an endpoint with the URL + `/authorize` suffix that will:
- - Check that the request is coming from Workhorse with the `require_gitlab_workhorse!` from the [API helpers](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/master/lib/api/helpers.rb).
- - Check user permissions.
- - Set the status to `200` with `status 200`.
- - Set the content type with `content_type Gitlab::Workhorse::INTERNAL_API_CONTENT_TYPE`.
- - Use your dedicated `Uploader` class (let's say that it's `FileUploader`) to build the response with `FileUploader.workhorse_authorize(params)`.
-1. Implement the endpoint for the upload request that will:
- - Require all the `UploadedFile` objects as parameters.
- - For example, if we expect a single parameter `file` to be an [`UploadedFile`](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/master/lib/uploaded_file.rb) instance,
-use `requires :file, type: ::API::Validations::Types::WorkhorseFile`.
- - Body upload requests have their upload available under the parameter `file`.
- - Check that the request is coming from Workhorse with the `require_gitlab_workhorse!` from the
-[API helpers](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/master/lib/api/helpers.rb).
- - Check the user permissions.
- - The remaining code of the processing. This is where the code must be reading the parameter (for
-our example, it would be `params[:file]`).
-
-WARNING:
-**Do not** call `UploadedFile#from_params` directly! Do not build an [`UploadedFile`](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/master/lib/uploaded_file.rb)
-object using `UploadedFile#from_params`! This method can be unsafe to use depending on the `params`
-passed. Instead, use the [`UploadedFile`](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/master/lib/uploaded_file.rb)
-object that [`multipart.rb`](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/master/lib/gitlab/middleware/multipart.rb)
-builds automatically for you.
-
-### Document Object Storage buckets and CarrierWave integration
-
-When using Object Storage, GitLab expects each kind of upload to maintain its own bucket in the respective
-Object Storage destination. Moreover, the integration with CarrierWave is not used all the time.
-The [Object Storage Working Group](https://about.gitlab.com/company/team/structure/working-groups/object-storage/)
-is investigating an approach that unifies Object Storage buckets into a single one and removes CarrierWave
-so as to simplify implementation and administration of uploads.
-
-Therefore, document new uploads here by slotting them into the following tables:
-
-- [Feature bucket details](#feature-bucket-details)
-- [CarrierWave integration](#carrierwave-integration)

+# Uploads guide: Why GitLab uses custom upload logic
+
+This page is for developers trying to better understand the history behind GitLab uploads and the
+technical challenges associated with uploads.
+
+## Problem description
+
+GitLab and [GitLab Workhorse](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-workhorse) use special rules for handling file uploads,
+because in an ordinary Rails application file uploads can become expensive as files grow in size.
+Rails often sacrifices performance to provide a better developer experience, including how it handles
+`multipart/form-post` uploads. In any Rack server, Rails applications included, when such a request arrives at the application server,
+several things happen:
+
+1. A [Rack middleware](https://github.com/rack/rack/blob/main/lib/rack/multipart.rb) intercepts the request and parses the request body.
+1. The middleware writes each file in the multipart request to a temporary directory on disk.
+1. A `params` hash is constructed with entries pointing to the respective files on disk.
+1. A Rails controller acts on the file contents.
+
+While this is convenient for developers, it is costly for the Ruby server process to buffer large files on disk.
+Because of Ruby's [global interpreter lock](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_interpreter_lock),
+only a single thread of execution of a given Ruby process can be on CPU. This means the amount of CPU
+time spent doing this is not available to other worker threads serving user requests.
+Buffering files to disk also means spending more time in I/O routines and mode switches, which are expensive operations.
+
+The following diagram shows how GitLab handled such a request prior to putting optimizations in place.
+
+```mermaid
+graph TB
+ subgraph "load balancers"
+ LB(Proxy)
+ end
+
+ subgraph "Shared storage"
+ nfs(NFS)
+ end
+
+ subgraph "redis cluster"
+ r(persisted redis)
+ end
+ LB-- 1 -->Workhorse
+
+ subgraph "web or API fleet"
+ Workhorse-- 2 -->rails
+ end
+ rails-- "3 (write files)" -->nfs
+ rails-- "4 (schedule a job)" -->r
+
+ subgraph sidekiq
+ s(sidekiq)
+ end
+ s-- "5 (fetch a job)" -->r
+ s-- "6 (read files)" -->nfs
+```
+
+We went through two major iterations of our uploads architecture to improve on these problems:
+
+1. [Moving disk buffering to Workhorse.](#moving-disk-buffering-to-workhorse)
+1. [Uploading to Object Storage from Workhorse.](#moving-to-object-storage-and-direct-uploads)
+
+### Moving disk buffering to Workhorse
+
+To address the performance issues resulting from buffering files in Ruby, we moved this logic to Workhorse instead,
+our reverse proxy fronting the GitLab Rails application.
+Workhorse is written in Go, and is much better at dealing with stream processing and I/O than Rails.
+
+There are two parts to this implementation:
+
+1. In Workhorse, a request handler detects `multipart/form-data` content in an incoming user request.
+ If such a request is detected, Workhorse hijacks the request body before forwarding it to Rails.
+ Workhorse writes all files to disk, rewrites the multipart form fields to point to the new locations, signs the
+ request, then forwards it to Rails.
+1. In Rails, a [custom multipart Rack middleware](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/master/lib/gitlab/middleware/multipart.rb)
+ identifies any signed multipart requests coming from Workhorse and prepares the `params` hash Rails
+ would expect, now pointing to the files cached by Workhorse. This makes it a drop-in replacement for `Rack::Multipart`.
+
+The diagram below shows how GitLab handles such a request today:
+
+```mermaid
+graph TB
+ subgraph "load balancers"
+ LB(HA Proxy)
+ end
+
+ subgraph "Shared storage"
+ nfs(NFS)
+ end
+
+ subgraph "redis cluster"
+ r(persisted redis)
+ end
+ LB-- 1 -->Workhorse
+
+ subgraph "web or API fleet"
+ Workhorse-- "3 (without files)" -->rails
+ end
+ Workhorse -- "2 (write files)" -->nfs
+ rails-- "4 (schedule a job)" -->r
+
+ subgraph sidekiq
+ s(sidekiq)
+ end
+ s-- "5 (fetch a job)" -->r
+ s-- "6 (read files)" -->nfs
+```
+
+While this "one-size-fits-all" solution greatly improves performance for multipart uploads without compromising
+developer ergonomics, it severely limits GitLab [availability](#availability-challenges)
+and [scalability](#scalability-challenges).
+
+#### Availability challenges
+
+Moving file buffering to Workhorse addresses the immediate performance problems stemming from Ruby not being good at
+handling large file uploads. However, a remaining issue of this solution is its reliance on attached storage,
+whether via ordinary hard drives or network attached storage like NFS.
+NFS is a [single point of failure](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single_point_of_failure), and is unsuitable for
+deploying GitLab in highly available, cloud native environments.
+
+#### Scalability challenges
+
+NFS is not a part of cloud native installations, such as those running in Kubernetes.
+In Kubernetes, machine boundaries translate to pods, and without network-attached storage, disk-buffered uploads
+must be written directly to the pod's file system.
+
+Using disk buffering presents us with a scalability challenge here. If Workhorse can only
+write files to a pod's private file system, then these files are inaccessible outside of this particular pod.
+With disk buffering, a Rails controller will accept a file upload and enqueue it for upload in a Sidekiq
+background job. Therefore, Sidekiq requires access to these files.
+However, in a cloud native environment all Sidekiq instances run on separate pods, so they are
+not able to access files buffered to disk on a web server pod.
+
+Therefore, all features that involve Sidekiq uploading disk-buffered files severely limit the scalability of GitLab.
+
+## Moving to object storage and direct uploads
+
+To address these availability and scalability problems,
+instead of buffering files to disk, we have added support for uploading files directly
+from Workhorse to a given destination. While it remains possible to upload to local or network-attached storage
+this way, you should use a highly available
+[object store](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Object_storage),
+such as AWS S3, Google GCS, or Azure, for scalability reasons.
+
+With direct uploads, Workhorse does not buffer files to disk. Instead, it first authorizes the request with
+the Rails application to find out where to upload it, then streams the file directly to its ultimate destination.
+
+To learn more about how disk buffering and direct uploads are implemented, see:

+
+# Uploads guide: How uploads work technically
+
+This page is for developers trying to better understand what kinds of uploads exist in GitLab and how they are implemented.
+
+## Kinds of uploads and how to choose between them
+
+We can identify three major use-cases for an upload:
+
+1. **storage:** if we are uploading for storing a file (like artifacts, packages, or discussion attachments). In this case [direct upload](#direct-upload) is the proper level as it's the less resource-intensive operation. Additional information can be found on [File Storage in GitLab](../file_storage.md).
+1. **in-controller/synchronous processing:** if we allow processing **small files** synchronously, using [disk buffered upload](#disk-buffered-upload) may speed up development.
+1. **Sidekiq/asynchronous processing:** Asynchronous processing must implement [direct upload](#direct-upload), the reason being that it's the only way to support Cloud Native deployments without a shared NFS.
+
+Selecting the proper acceleration is a tradeoff between speed of development and operational costs.
+
+For more details about currently broken feature see [epic &1802](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/1802).
+
+### Handling repository uploads
+
+Some features involves Git repository uploads without using a regular Git client.
+Some examples are uploading a repository file from the web interface and [design management](../../user/project/issues/design_management.md).
+
+Those uploads requires the rails controller to act as a Git client in lieu of the user.
+Those operation falls into _in-controller/synchronous processing_ category, but we have no warranties on the file size.
+
+In case of a LFS upload, the file pointer is committed synchronously, but file upload to object storage is performed asynchronously with Sidekiq.
+
+## Upload encodings
+
+By upload encoding we mean how the file is included within the incoming request.
+
+We have three kinds of file encoding in our uploads:
+
+1. <i class="fa fa-check-circle"></i> **multipart**: `multipart/form-data` is the most common, a file is encoded as a part of a multipart encoded request.
+1. <i class="fa fa-check-circle"></i> **body**: some APIs uploads files as the whole request body.
+1. <i class="fa fa-times-circle"></i> **JSON**: some JSON APIs upload files as base64-encoded strings. This requires a change to GitLab Workhorse,
+ which is tracked [in this issue](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/325068).
+
+## Uploading technologies
+
+By uploading technologies we mean how all the involved services interact with each other.
+
+GitLab supports 3 kinds of uploading technologies, here follows a brief description with a sequence diagram for each one. Diagrams are not meant to be exhaustive.
+
+### Rack Multipart upload
+
+This is the default kind of upload, and it's the most expensive in terms of resources.
+
+In this case, Workhorse is unaware of files being uploaded and acts as a regular proxy.
+
+When a multipart request reaches the rails application, `Rack::Multipart` leaves behind temporary files in `/tmp` and uses valuable Ruby process time to copy files around.
+
+```mermaid
+sequenceDiagram
+ participant c as Client
+ participant w as Workhorse
+ participant r as Rails
+
+ activate c
+ c ->>+w: POST /some/url/upload
+ w->>+r: POST /some/url/upload
+
+ r->>r: save the incoming file on /tmp
+ r->>r: read the file for processing
+
+ r-->>-c: request result
+ deactivate c
+ deactivate w
+```
+
+### Disk buffered upload
+
+This kind of upload avoids wasting resources caused by handling upload writes to `/tmp` in rails.
+
+This optimization is not active by default on REST API requests.
+
+When enabled, Workhorse looks for files in multipart MIME requests, uploading
+any it finds to a temporary file on shared storage. The MIME data in the request
+is replaced with the path to the corresponding file before it is forwarded to
+Rails.
+
+To prevent abuse of this feature, Workhorse signs the modified request with a
+special header, stating which entries it modified. Rails ignores any
+unsigned path entries.
+
+```mermaid
+sequenceDiagram
+ participant c as Client
+ participant w as Workhorse
+ participant r as Rails
+ participant s as NFS
+
+ activate c
+ c ->>+w: POST /some/url/upload
+
+ w->>+s: save the incoming file on a temporary location
+ s-->>-w: request result
+
+ w->>+r: POST /some/url/upload
+ Note over w,r: file was replaced with its location<br>and other metadata
+
+ opt requires async processing
+ r->>+redis: schedule a job
+ redis-->>-r: job is scheduled
+ end
+
+ r-->>-c: request result
+ deactivate c
+ w->>-w: cleanup
+
+ opt requires async processing
+ activate sidekiq
+ sidekiq->>+redis: fetch a job
+ redis-->>-sidekiq: job
+
+ sidekiq->>+s: read file
+ s-->>-sidekiq: file
+
+ sidekiq->>sidekiq: process file
+
+ deactivate sidekiq
+ end
+```
+
+### Direct upload
+
+This is the more advanced acceleration technique we have in place.
+
+Workhorse asks Rails for temporary pre-signed object storage URLs and directly uploads to object storage.
+
+In this setup, an extra Rails route must be implemented in order to handle authorization. Examples of this can be found in:
+
+- [`Projects::LfsStorageController`](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/cc723071ad337573e0360a879cbf99bc4fb7adb9/app/controllers/projects/lfs_storage_controller.rb)
+ and [its routes](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/cc723071ad337573e0360a879cbf99bc4fb7adb9/config/routes/git_http.rb#L31-32).
+- [API endpoints for uploading packages](../packages.md#file-uploads).
+
+Direct upload falls back to _disk buffered upload_ when `direct_upload` is disabled inside the [object storage setting](../../administration/uploads.md#object-storage-settings).
+The answer to the `/authorize` call contains only a file system path.
+
+```mermaid
+sequenceDiagram
+ participant c as Client
+ participant w as Workhorse
+ participant r as Rails
+ participant os as Object Storage
+
+ activate c
+ c ->>+w: POST /some/url/upload
+
+ w ->>+r: POST /some/url/upload/authorize
+ Note over w,r: this request has an empty body
+ r-->>-w: presigned OS URL
+
+ w->>+os: PUT file
+ Note over w,os: file is stored on a temporary location. Rails select the destination
+ os-->>-w: request result
+
+ w->>+r: POST /some/url/upload
+ Note over w,r: file was replaced with its location<br>and other metadata
+
+ r->>+os: move object to final destination
+ os-->>-r: request result
+
+ opt requires async processing
+ r->>+redis: schedule a job
+ redis-->>-r: job is scheduled
+ end
+
+ r-->>-c: request result
+ deactivate c
+ w->>-w: cleanup
+
+ opt requires async processing
+ activate sidekiq
+ sidekiq->>+redis: fetch a job
+ redis-->>-sidekiq: job
+
+ sidekiq->>+os: get object
+ os-->>-sidekiq: file
+
+ sidekiq->>sidekiq: process file
+
+ deactivate sidekiq
+ end
+```

+# Uploads guide: Adding new uploads
+
+In this section, we describe how to add a new upload route [accelerated](implementation.md#uploading-technologies) by Workhorse for [body and multipart](implementation.md#upload-encodings) encoded uploads.
+
+Upload routes belong to one of these categories:
+
+1. Rails controllers: uploads handled by Rails controllers.
+1. Grape API: uploads handled by a Grape API endpoint.
+1. GraphQL API: uploads handled by a GraphQL resolve function.
+
+WARNING:
+GraphQL uploads do not support [direct upload](implementation.md#direct-upload) yet. Depending on the use case, the feature may not work on installations without NFS (like GitLab.com or Kubernetes installations). Uploading to object storage inside the GraphQL resolve function may result in timeout errors. For more details please follow [issue #280819](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/280819).
+
+## Update Workhorse for the new route
+
+For both the Rails controller and Grape API uploads, Workhorse has to be updated in order to get the
+support for the new upload route.
+
+1. Open a new issue in the [Workhorse tracker](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-workhorse/-/issues/new) describing precisely the new upload route:
+ - The route's URL.
+ - The [upload encoding](implementation.md#upload-encodings).
+ - If possible, provide a dump of the upload request.
+1. Implement and get the MR merged for this issue above.
+1. Ask the Maintainers of [Workhorse](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-workhorse) to create a new release. You can do that in the MR
+ directly during the maintainer review or ask for it in the `#workhorse` Slack channel.
+1. Bump the [Workhorse version file](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/master/GITLAB_WORKHORSE_VERSION)
+ to the version you have from the previous points, or bump it in the same merge request that contains
+ the Rails changes (see [Implementing the new route with a Rails controller](#implementing-the-new-route-with-a-rails-controller) or [Implementing the new route with a Grape API endpoint](#implementing-the-new-route-with-a-grape-api-endpoint) below).
+
+## Implementing the new route with a Rails controller
+
+For a Rails controller upload, we usually have a [multipart](implementation.md#upload-encodings) upload and there are a
+few things to do:
+
+1. The upload is available under the parameter name you're using. For example, it could be an `artifact`
+ or a nested parameter such as `user[avatar]`. Let's say that we have the upload under the
+ `file` parameter, reading `params[:file]` should get you an [`UploadedFile`](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/master/lib/uploaded_file.rb) instance.
+1. Generally speaking, it's a good idea to check if the instance is from the [`UploadedFile`](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/master/lib/uploaded_file.rb) class. For example, see how we checked
+[that the parameter is indeed an `UploadedFile`](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/commit/ea30fe8a71bf16ba07f1050ab4820607b5658719#51c0cc7a17b7f12c32bc41cfab3649ff2739b0eb_79_77).
+
+WARNING:
+**Do not** call `UploadedFile#from_params` directly! Do not build an [`UploadedFile`](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/master/lib/uploaded_file.rb)
+instance using `UploadedFile#from_params`! This method can be unsafe to use depending on the `params`
+passed. Instead, use the [`UploadedFile`](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/master/lib/uploaded_file.rb)
+instance that [`multipart.rb`](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/master/lib/gitlab/middleware/multipart.rb)
+builds automatically for you.
+
+## Implementing the new route with a Grape API endpoint
+
+For a Grape API upload, we can have [body or a multipart](implementation.md#upload-encodings) upload. Things are slightly more complicated: two endpoints are needed. One for the
+Workhorse pre-upload authorization and one for accepting the upload metadata from Workhorse:
+
+1. Implement an endpoint with the URL + `/authorize` suffix that will:
+ - Check that the request is coming from Workhorse with the `require_gitlab_workhorse!` from the [API helpers](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/master/lib/api/helpers.rb).
+ - Check user permissions.
+ - Set the status to `200` with `status 200`.
+ - Set the content type with `content_type Gitlab::Workhorse::INTERNAL_API_CONTENT_TYPE`.
+ - Use your dedicated `Uploader` class (let's say that it's `FileUploader`) to build the response with `FileUploader.workhorse_authorize(params)`.
+1. Implement the endpoint for the upload request that will:
+ - Require all the `UploadedFile` objects as parameters.
+ - For example, if we expect a single parameter `file` to be an [`UploadedFile`](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/master/lib/uploaded_file.rb) instance,
+use `requires :file, type: ::API::Validations::Types::WorkhorseFile`.
+ - Body upload requests have their upload available under the parameter `file`.
+ - Check that the request is coming from Workhorse with the `require_gitlab_workhorse!` from the
+[API helpers](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/master/lib/api/helpers.rb).
+ - Check the user permissions.
+ - The remaining code of the processing. This is where the code must be reading the parameter (for
+our example, it would be `params[:file]`).
+
+WARNING:
+**Do not** call `UploadedFile#from_params` directly! Do not build an [`UploadedFile`](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/master/lib/uploaded_file.rb)
+object using `UploadedFile#from_params`! This method can be unsafe to use depending on the `params`
+passed. Instead, use the [`UploadedFile`](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/master/lib/uploaded_file.rb)
+object that [`multipart.rb`](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/master/lib/gitlab/middleware/multipart.rb)
+builds automatically for you.
+
+## Document Object Storage buckets and CarrierWave integration
+
+When using Object Storage, GitLab expects each kind of upload to maintain its own bucket in the respective
+Object Storage destination. Moreover, the integration with CarrierWave is not used all the time.
+The [Object Storage Working Group](https://about.gitlab.com/company/team/structure/working-groups/object-storage/)
+is investigating an approach that unifies Object Storage buckets into a single one and removes CarrierWave
+so as to simplify implementation and administration of uploads.
+
+Therefore, document new uploads here by slotting them into the following tables:
+
+- [Feature bucket details](#feature-bucket-details)
+- [CarrierWave integration](#carrierwave-integration)

WARNING:
-Setting the number of replicas to `0` is discouraged (this is not allowed in the GitLab Elasticsearch Integration menu). If you are planning to add more Elasticsearch nodes (for a total of more than 1 Elasticsearch) the number of replicas will need to be set to an integer value larger than `0`. Failure to do so will result in lack of redundancy (losing one node will corrupt the index).

+## Performance factors
+
+In general, GitLab Feature Flags can be used in any applications,
+however, if it's a large application, it could require an additional configuration in advance.
+This section explains the performance factors to help your organization to identify
+what's needed to be done before using the feature.
+Please read [How it works](#how-it-works) section before diving into the details.
+
+### Maximum supported clients in application nodes
+
+GitLab accepts client requests as much as possible until it hits the [rate limiting](../security/rate_limits.md).
+At the moment, the Feature Flag API falls into **Unauthenticated traffic (from a given IP address)**
+in the [GitLab.com specific limits](../user/gitlab_com/index.md),
+so it's **500 requests per minute**.
+
+Please note that the polling rate is configurable in SDKs. Provided that all clients are requesting from the same IP:
+
+- Request once per minute ... 500 clients can be supported.
+- Request once per 15 sec ... 125 clients can be supported.
+
+For applications looking for more scalable solution, we recommend to use [Unleash Proxy](#unleash-proxy-example).
+This proxy server sits between the server and clients. It requests to the server as a behalf of the client groups,
+so the nubmer of outbound requests can be greatly reduced.
+
+There is also an [issue](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/295472) to give more
+capacity to the current rate limit.
+
+### Recovering from network errors
+
+In general, [Unleash clients](https://github.com/Unleash/unleash#unleash-sdks) have
+a fall-back mechanism when the server returns an error code.
+For example, `unleash-ruby-client` reads flag data from the local backup so that
+application can keep running in the current state.
+
+Please reads the documentation in a SDK project for more information.
+
+### Self-managed GitLab
+
+Functionality-wise, there are no differences. Both SaaS and self-managed behave the same.
+
+In terms of scalability, it's up to the spec of the GitLab instance.
+For example, GitLab.com runs on HA architecture so that it can handle a lot of requests concurrently,
+however, a self-managed instance runs on a low spec machine can't expect the same result.
+Please see [Reference architectures](../administration/reference_architectures/index.md)
+for more information.

+You can do this by using the GraphQL explorer tool for the relevant GitLab
+instance. For example: `https://gitlab.com/-/graphql-explorer`.
+
+For example, the following query illustrates the breaking change:
+
+```graphql
+# a query using the deprecated type of Query.issue(id:)
+# WARNING: This will not work after GitLab 15.0
+query($id: ID!) {
+ deprecated: issue(id: $id) {
+ title, description
+ }
+}
+```
+
+The query above will not work after GitLab 15.0 is released, because the type
+of `Query.issue(id:)` is actually `IssueID!`.
+
+Instead, you should use one of the following two forms:
+
+```graphql
+# This will continue to work
+query($id: IssueID!) {
+ a: issue(id: $id) {
+ title, description
+ }
+ b: issue(id: "gid://gitlab/Issue/12345") {
+ title, description
+ }
+}
+```
+
+This query works now, and will continue to work after GitLab 15.0.
+You should convert any queries in the first form (using `ID` as a named type in the signature)
+to one of the other two forms (using the correct appropriate type in the signature, or using
+an inline argument expression).

+If you are not using the default inclusion templates, or have pinned your analyzer version(s) you will need to update your CI/CD job definition to either remove the pinned version or to update the latest major version.
+Users of GitLab 12.0-14.10 will continue to experience analyzer updates as normal until the release of GitLab 15.0, following which all newly fixed bugs and newly released features in the new major versions of the analyzers will not be available in the deprecated versions because we do not backport bugs and new features as per our [maintenance policy](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/policy/maintenance.html).

-We deprecated legacy names for approval status of license policy (blacklisted, approved) in the `managed_licenses` API but they are still used in our API queries and responses. They will be removed in 15.0.
+Although not recommended or documented, it was possible to deploy a gRPC-aware proxy between Gitaly and

+Gitaly connections, you should change your proxy configuration to use TCP or TLS proxying (OSI layer 4) instead.
-If you are using our License Compliance API you should stop using the `approved` and `blacklisted` query parameters, they are now `allowed` and `denied`. In 15.0 the responses will also stop using `approved` and `blacklisted` so you need to adjust any of your custom tools to use the old and new values so they do not break with the 15.0 release.
+Gitaly Cluster became incompatible with gRPC-aware proxies in GitLab 13.12. Now all GitLab installations will be incompatible with

+- A two-step approval process can be enforced for any desired changes to security approval rules.
+- A single set of security policies can be applied to multiple development projects to allow for ease in maintaining a single, centralized ruleset.

+### Integrated error tracking disabled by default
+
+WARNING:
+This feature was changed or removed in 14.9
+as a [breaking change](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/development/contributing/#breaking-changes).
+Before updating GitLab, review the details carefully to determine if you need to make any
+changes to your code, settings, or workflow.
+
+In GitLab 14.4, GitLab released an integrated error tracking backend that replaces Sentry. This feature caused database performance issues. In GitLab 14.9, integrated error tracking is removed from GitLab.com, and turned off by default in GitLab self-managed. While we explore the future development of this feature, please consider switching to the Sentry backend by [changing your error tracking to Sentry in your project settings](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/operations/error_tracking.html#sentry-error-tracking).
+
+For additional background on this removal, please reference [Disable Integrated Error Tracking by Default](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/7580).

- - To specify a custom location and filename for the license, add this entry to `gitlab.rb`:
-
- ```ruby
- gitlab_rails['initial_license_file'] = "/path/to/license/file"
- ```
-
-WARNING:
-These methods only add a license at the time of installation. To renew or upgrade
-a license, upload the license in the **Admin Area** in the web user interface.
-
-## What happens when your license expires
-
-Fifteen days before the license expires, a notification banner with the upcoming expiration
-date displays to GitLab administrators.
-
-When your license expires, GitLab locks features, like Git pushes
-and issue creation. Your instance becomes read-only and
-an expiration message displays to all administrators. You have a 14-day grace period
-before this occurs.
-
-To resume functionality, [upload a new license](#upload-your-license).

-You can view all active subscriptions in the **Subscription history** table.
-
-You can also [export](../../subscriptions/self_managed/index.md) your license usage information to a CSV file.
-
-NOTE:
-In GitLab 13.6 and earlier, a banner about an expiring license may continue to display
-when you upload a new license. This happens when the start date of the new license
-is in the future and the expiring one is still active.
-The banner disappears after the new license becomes active.
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-### No Subscription area in the Admin Area
-
-You cannot upload your license because there is no **Subscription** area.
-This issue might occur if:
-
-- You're running GitLab Community Edition. Before you upload your license, you
- must [upgrade to Enterprise Edition](../../update/index.md#community-to-enterprise-edition).
-- You're using GitLab.com. You cannot upload a self-managed license to GitLab.com.
- To use paid features on GitLab.com, [purchase a separate subscription](../../subscriptions/gitlab_com/index.md).
-
-### Users exceed license limit upon renewal
-
-GitLab displays a message prompting you to purchase
-additional users. This issue occurs if you upload a license that does not have enough
-users to cover the number of users in your instance.
-
-To fix this issue, purchase additional seats to cover those users.
-For more information, read the [licensing FAQ](https://about.gitlab.com/pricing/licensing-faq/).
-
-In GitLab 14.2 and later, for instances that use a license file, the following
-rules apply:
-
-- If the users over license are less than or equal to 10% of the users in the license
- file, the license is applied and you pay the overage in the next renewal.
-- If the users over license are more than 10% of the users in the license file,
- you cannot apply the license without purchasing more users.
+If you have an offline or airgapped environment,
+[activate GitLab EE with a license file or key](license_file.md) instead.
-For example, if you purchase a license for 100 users, you can have 110 users when you activate
-your license. However, if you have 111 users, you must purchase more users before you can activate
-the license.
+If you have questions or need assistance activating your instance,
+[contact GitLab Support](https://about.gitlab.com/support/#contact-support).
-### Cannot activate instance due to connectivity error
+When [the license expires](license_file.md#what-happens-when-your-license-expires),
+some functionality is locked.
-In GitLab 14.1 and later, to activate your subscription with an activation code,
-your GitLab instance must be connected to the internet.

-> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/337256) in GitLab 11.3.
+- Deploys: The number of successful deployments in the date range.
+- Deployment Frequency: The average number of successful deployments per day in the date range.

-The deployment metrics calculation uses the same method as the
-[value stream analytics for groups](../group/value_stream_analytics/index.md#how-metrics-are-measured).
-Both of them are based on the [DORA API](../../api/dora/metrics.md#devops-research-and-assessment-dora-key-metrics-api).
+The **Deploys** and **Deployment Frequency** metrics display below the **Filter results** text box.
-## How the stages are measured
+Deployment metrics are calculated based on data from the
+[DORA API](../../api/dora/metrics.md#devops-research-and-assessment-dora-key-metrics-api).
-Value stream analytics uses start events and end events to measure the time that an issue or merge request spends in each stage.
-For example, a stage might start when one label is added to an issue and end when another label is added.
-Items aren't included in the stage time calculation if they have not reached the end event.
+NOTE:
+In GitLab 13.9 and later, metrics are calculated based on when the deployment was finished.
+In GitLab 13.8 and earlier, metrics are calculated based on when the deployment was created.
-| Stage | Description |
-|---------|---------------|
-| Issue | Measures the median time between creating an issue and taking action to solve it, by either labeling it or adding it to a milestone, whichever comes first. The label is tracked only if it already includes an [issue board list](../project/issue_board.md) created for it. |
-| Plan | Measures the median time between the action you took for the previous stage, and pushing the first commit to the branch. That first branch commit triggers the separation between **Plan** and **Code**, and at least one of the commits in the branch must include the related issue number (such as `#42`).

-| Code | Measures the median time between pushing a first commit (previous stage) and creating a merge request (MR). The process is tracked with the [issue closing pattern](../project/issues/managing_issues.md#closing-issues-automatically) in the description of the merge request.

+## Access permissions for value stream analytics
-How this works:
+Access permissions for value stream analytics depend on the project type.
-1. Issues and merge requests are grouped in pairs, where the merge request has the
- [closing pattern](../project/issues/managing_issues.md#closing-issues-automatically)
- for the corresponding issue. Issue and merge request pairs without closing patterns are
- not included.
-1. Issue and merge request pairs are filtered by the last XX days, specified through the UI
- (default is `90` days). Pairs outside the filtered range are not included.
-1. For the remaining pairs, review information needed for stages, including
- issue creation date and merge request merge time.
+| Project type | Permissions |
+|--------------|----------------------------------------|
+| Public | Anyone can access. |
+| Internal | Any authenticated user can access. |
+| Private | Any member Guest and above can access. |
-In short, the value stream analytics dashboard tracks data related to [GitLab flow](../../topics/gitlab_flow.md). It does not include data for:
+## How value stream analytics measures each stage
-- Merge requests that do not close an issue.
-- Issues that do not include labels present in the issue board.
-- Issues without a milestone.
-- Staging stages, in projects without a [production environment](#how-the-production-environment-is-identified).
+Value stream analytics uses start and end events to measure the time that an issue or merge request
+spends in each stage.
-## How the production environment is identified
+For example, a stage might start when a user adds a label to an issue, and ends when they add another label.
+Items aren't included in the stage time calculation if they have not reached the end event.
-Value stream analytics identifies production environments based on the
-[deployment tier of environments](../../ci/environments/index.md#deployment-tier-of-environments).
+| Stage | Measurement method |
+|---------|----------------------|
+| Issue | The median time between creating an issue and taking action to solve it, by either labeling it or adding it to a milestone. The label is tracked only if it already includes an [issue board list](../project/issue_board.md) that has been created for the label. |
+| Plan | The median time between the action you took for the previous stage, and when you push the first commit to the branch. The first branch commit triggers the transition from **Plan** to **Code**, and at least one of the commits in the branch must include the related issue number (such as `#42`). If the issue number is not included in a commit, that data is not included in the measurement time of the stage. |
+| Code | The median time between pushing a first commit (previous stage) and creating a merge request. The process is tracked with the [issue closing pattern](../project/issues/managing_issues.md#closing-issues-automatically) in the description of the merge request. For example, if the issue is closed with `Closes #xxx`, `xxx` is the issue number for the merge request. If there is no closing pattern, the start time is set to the create time of the first commit. |
+| Test | The time from start to finish for all pipelines. Measures the median time to run the entire pipeline for that project. Related to the time required by GitLab CI/CD to run every job for the commits pushed to that merge request, as defined in the previous stage. |
+| Review | The median time taken to review merge requests with a closing issue pattern, from creation to merge. |
+| Staging | The median time between merging the merge request (with a closing issue pattern) to the first deployment to a [production environment](../../ci/environments/index.md#deployment-tier-of-environments). Data is not collected without a production environment. |
## Example workflow
-Here's a fictional workflow of a single cycle that happens in a
-single day, passing through all seven stages. If a stage doesn't have
-a start and a stop mark, it isn't measured and hence isn't calculated in the median
-time. It's assumed that milestones are created, and CI for testing and setting
-environments is configured.
-
-1. Issue is created at 09:00 (start of **Issue** stage).
-1. Issue is added to a milestone at 11:00 (stop of **Issue** stage and start of
- **Plan** stage).
-1. Start working on the issue, create a branch locally, and make one commit at
- 12:00.
-1. Make a second commit to the branch that mentions the issue number at 12:30
- (stop of **Plan** stage and start of **Code** stage).
-1. Push branch, and create a merge request that contains the [issue closing pattern](../project/issues/managing_issues.md#closing-issues-automatically)
- in its description at 14:00 (stop of **Code** stage and start of **Test** and
- **Review** stages).
-1. The CI starts running your scripts defined in [`.gitlab-ci.yml`](../../ci/yaml/index.md) and
- takes 5 minutes (stop of **Test** stage).
-1. Review merge request, ensure that everything is okay, and then merge the merge
- request at 19:00 (stop of **Review** stage and start of **Staging** stage).
-1. The merge request is merged, and a deployment to the `production`
- environment starts and finishes at 19:30 (stop of **Staging** stage).
-
-From the previous example we see the time used for each stage:
-
-- **Issue**: 2 hrs (09:00 to 11:00)
-- **Plan**: 1 hr (11:00 to 12:00)
-- **Code**: 2 hrs (12:00 to 14:00)
+This example shows a workflow through all seven stages in one day. In this
+example, milestones have been created and CI for testing and setting environments is configured.
+
+- 09:00: Create issue. **Issue** stage starts.
+- 11:00: Add issue to a milestone, start work on the issue, and create a branch locally.
+**Issue** stage stops and **Plan** stage starts.
+- 12:00: Make the first commit.
+- 12:30: Make the second commit to the branch that mentions the issue number. **Plan** stage stops and **Code** stage starts.
+- 14:00: Push branch and create a merge request that contains the [issue closing pattern](../project/issues/managing_issues.md#closing-issues-automatically). **Code** stage stops and **Test** and **Review** stages start.
+- The CI takes 5 minutes to run scripts defined in [`.gitlab-ci.yml`](../../ci/yaml/index.md).
+**Test** stage stops.
+- Review merge request.
+- 19:00: Merge the merge request. **Review** stage stops and **Staging** stage starts.
+- 19:30: Deployment to the `production` environment starts and finishes. **Staging** stops.
+
+Value stream analytics records the following times for each stage:
+
+- **Issue**: 09:00 to 11:00: 2 hrs
+- **Plan**: 11:00 to 12:00: 1 hr
+- **Code**: 12:00 to 14:00: 2 hrs
- **Test**: 5 minutes
-- **Review**: 5 hrs (14:00 to 19:00)
-- **Staging**: 30 minutes (19:00 to 19:30)
-
-More information:
-
-- Although the previous example specifies the issue number in a later commit, the process
- still collects analytics data for the issue.
-- The time required in the **Test** stage isn't included in the overall time of
- the cycle. The time is included in the **Review** process, as every merge request should be
- tested.
-- The previous example illustrates only one cycle of the multiple stages. Value
- stream analytics, on its dashboard, shows the calculated median elapsed time
- for these issues.
-
-## Permissions
-
-The permissions for the value stream analytics for projects dashboard include:
-
-| Project type | Permissions |
-|--------------|---------------------------------------|
-| Public | Anyone can access |
-| Internal | Any authenticated user can access |
-| Private | Any member Guest and above can access |
-
-You can [read more about permissions](../../user/permissions.md) in general.

-To ensure access to your cluster is safe, only the projects you

+To ensure access to your cluster is safe:
-## Prerequisites
+- Each agent has a separate context (`kubecontext`).
+- Only the project where the agent is configured, and any additional projects you authorize, can access the agent in your cluster.
-To use the CI/CD Tunnel, you need an existing Kubernetes cluster connected to GitLab through the
-[GitLab Agent](install/index.md#install-the-agent-onto-the-cluster).
+You do not need to have a runner in the cluster with the agent.

+## GitLab CI/CD workflow steps
-## How the CI/CD Tunnel works
+To update a Kubernetes cluster by using GitLab CI/CD, complete the following steps.
-When you authorize a project to use an Agent, the Tunnel automatically
-injects a `KUBECONFIG` variable into its CI/CD jobs. This way, you can
-run `kubectl` commands from GitLab CI/CD scripts that belong to the
-authorized project.
+1. Ensure you have a working Kubernetes cluster and the manifests are in a GitLab project.
+1. In the same GitLab project, [register and install the GitLab agent](install/index.md).
+1. [Update your `.gitlab-ci.yml` file](#update-your-gitlab-ciyml-file-to-run-kubectl-commands) to
+ select the agent's Kubernetes context and run the Kubernetes API commands.
+1. Run your pipeline to deploy to or update the cluster.
-When you authorize a group, all the projects that belong to that group
-become authorized to access the selected Agent.
+If you have multiple GitLab projects that contain Kubernetes manifests:
-An Agent can only authorize projects or groups in the same group
-hierarchy as the Agent's configuration project. You can authorize
-up to 100 projects and 100 groups per Agent.
+1. [Install the GitLab agent](install/index.md) in its own project, or in one of the
+ GitLab projects where you keep Kubernetes manifests.
+1. [Authorize the agent](#authorize-the-agent) to access your GitLab projects.
+1. Optional. For added security, [use impersonation](#use-impersonation-to-restrict-project-and-group-access).

+### Authorize the agent to access your projects
+
+> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/327850) in GitLab 14.4.
+
+To authorize the agent to access the GitLab project where you keep Kubernetes manifests:
+
+1. On the top bar, select **Menu > Projects** and find the project that contains the agent configuration file (`config.yaml`).
+1. Edit the file. Under the `ci_access` keyword, add the `projects` attribute.
+1. For the `id`, add the path:
+
+ ```yaml
+ ci_access:
+ projects:
+ - id: path/to/project
+ ```
+
+ - The Kubernetes projects must be in the same group hierarchy as the project where the agent's configuration is.
+ - You can authorize up to 100 projects.
+
+All CI/CD jobs now include a `KUBECONFIG` with contexts for every shared agent connection.
+Choose the context to run `kubectl` commands from your CI/CD scripts.
+
+### Authorize the agent to access projects in your groups
+
+> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/5784) in GitLab 14.3.
+
+To authorize the agent to access all of the GitLab projects in a group or subgroup:
+
+1. On the top bar, select **Menu > Projects** and find the project that contains the agent configuration file (`config.yaml`).
+1. Edit the file. Under the `ci_access` keyword, add the `groups` attribute.
+1. For the `id`, add the path:
+
+ ```yaml
+ ci_access:
+ groups:
+ - id: path/to/group/subgroup
+ ```
+
+ - The Kubernetes projects must be in the same group hierarchy as the project where the agent's configuration is.
+ - You can authorize up to 100 groups.
+
+All the projects that belong to the group are now authorized to access the agent.
+All CI/CD jobs now include a `KUBECONFIG` with contexts for every shared agent connection.
+Choose the context to run `kubectl` commands from your CI/CD scripts.
+
+## Update your `.gitlab-ci.yml` file to run `kubectl` commands
+
+In the project where you want to run Kubernetes commands, edit your project's `.gitlab-ci.yml` file.
+
+In the first command under the `script` keyword, set your agent's context.
+Use the format `path/to/agent/repository:agent-name`. For example:
+
+```yaml
+ deploy:
+ image:
+ name: bitnami/kubectl:latest
+ entrypoint: [""]
+ script:
+ - kubectl config get-contexts
+ - kubectl config use-context path/to/agent/repository:agent-name
+ - kubectl get pods
+```
+
+If you are not sure what your agent's context is, open a terminal and connect to your cluster.
+Run `kubectl config get-contexts`.
+
+### Environments with both certificate-based and agent-based connections
+
+When you deploy to an environment that has both a [certificate-based
+cluster](../../infrastructure/clusters/index.md) (deprecated) and an agent connection:
+
+- The certificate-based cluster's context is called `gitlab-deploy`. This context
+ is always selected by default.
+- In GitLab 14.9 and later, agent contexts are included in the
+ `KUBECONFIG`. You can select them by using `kubectl config use-context
+ path/to/agent/repository:agent-name`.
+- In GitLab 14.8 and earlier, you can still use agent connections, but for environments that
+ already have a certificate-based cluster, the agent connections are not included in the `KUBECONFIG`.
+
+To use an agent connection when certificate-based connections are present, you can manually configure a new `kubectl`
+configuration context. For example:
+
+ ```yaml
+ deploy:
+ variables:
+ KUBE_CONTEXT: my-context # The name to use for the new context
+ AGENT_ID: 1234 # replace with your agent's numeric ID
+ K8S_PROXY_URL: wss://kas.gitlab.com/k8s-proxy/ # replace with your agent server (KAS) Kubernetes proxy URL
+ # ... any other variables you have configured
+ before_script:
+ - kubectl config set-credentials agent:$AGENT_ID --token="ci:${AGENT_ID}:${CI_JOB_TOKEN}"
+ - kubectl config set-cluster gitlab --server="${K8S_PROXY_URL}"
+ - kubectl config set-context "$KUBE_CONTEXT" --cluster=gitlab --user="agent:${AGENT_ID}"
+ - kubectl config use-context "$KUBE_CONTEXT"
+ # ... rest of your job configuration
+ ```
+
+## Use impersonation to restrict project and group access **(PREMIUM)**
+
+> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/345014) in GitLab 14.5.
+
+By default, your CI/CD job inherits all the permissions from the service account used to install the
+agent in the cluster.
+To restrict access to your cluster, you can use [impersonation](https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/access-authn-authz/authentication/#user-impersonation).
+
+To specify impersonations, use the `access_as` attribute in your agent configuration file and use Kubernetes RBAC rules to manage impersonated account permissions.
+
+You can impersonate:
+
+- The agent itself (default).
+- The CI/CD job that accesses the cluster.
+- A specific user or system account defined within the cluster.
+
+### Impersonate the agent
+
+The agent is impersonated by default. You don't need to do anything to impersonate it.
+
+### Impersonate the CI/CD job that accesses the cluster
+
+To impersonate the CI/CD job that accesses the cluster, under the `access_as` key, add the `ci_job: {}` key-value.
+
+When the agent makes the request to the actual Kubernetes API, it sets the
+impersonation credentials in the following way:
+
+- `UserName` is set to `gitlab:ci_job:<job id>`. Example: `gitlab:ci_job:1074499489`.
+- `Groups` is set to:
+ - `gitlab:ci_job` to identify all requests coming from CI jobs.
+ - The list of IDs of groups the project is in.
+ - The project ID.
+ - The slug of the environment this job belongs to.
+
+ Example: for a CI job in `group1/group1-1/project1` where:
+
+ - Group `group1` has ID 23.
+ - Group `group1/group1-1` has ID 25.
+ - Project `group1/group1-1/project1` has ID 150.
+ - Job running in a prod environment.
+
+ Group list would be `[gitlab:ci_job, gitlab:group:23, gitlab:group:25, gitlab:project:150, gitlab:project_env:150:prod]`.
+
+- `Extra` carries extra information about the request. The following properties are set on the impersonated identity:
+
+| Property | Description |
+| -------- | ----------- |
+| `agent.gitlab.com/id` | Contains the agent ID. |
+| `agent.gitlab.com/config_project_id` | Contains the agent's configuration project ID. |
+| `agent.gitlab.com/project_id` | Contains the CI project ID. |
+| `agent.gitlab.com/ci_pipeline_id` | Contains the CI pipeline ID. |
+| `agent.gitlab.com/ci_job_id` | Contains the CI job ID. |
+| `agent.gitlab.com/username` | Contains the username of the user the CI job is running as. |
+| `agent.gitlab.com/environment_slug` | Contains the slug of the environment. Only set if running in an environment. |
+
+Example to restrict access by the CI/CD job's identity:
+
+```yaml
+ci_access:
+ projects:
+ - id: path/to/project
+ access_as:
+ ci_job: {}
+```
+
+### Impersonate a static identity
+
+For a given connection, you can use a static identity for the impersonation.
+
+Under the `access_as` key, add the `impersonate` key to make the request using the provided identity.
+
+The identity can be specified with the following keys:
+
+- `username` (required)
+- `uid`
+- `groups`
+- `extra`
+
+See the [official Kubernetes documentation for details](https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/access-authn-authz/authentication/#user-impersonation).
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### `kubectl` commands not supported
+
+The commands `kubectl exec`, `kubectl cp`, and `kubectl attach` are not supported.
+Anything that uses these API endpoints does not work, because they use the deprecated
+SPDY protocol.
+[An issue exists](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/346248) to add support for these commands.
+
+### Grant write permissions to `~/.kube/cache`
+
+Tools like `kubectl`, Helm, `kpt`, and `kustomize` cache information about
the cluster in `~/.kube/cache`. If this directory is not writable, the tool fetches information on each invocation,

+# Using a GitOps workflow for Kubernetes **(PREMIUM)**
+
+> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/259669) in GitLab 13.7.
+
+With GitOps, you can manage containerized clusters and applications from a Git repository that:
+
+- Is the single source of truth of your system.
+- Is the single place where you operate your system.
+
+By combining GitLab, Kubernetes, and GitOps, you can have:
+
+- GitLab as the GitOps operator.
+- Kubernetes as the automation and convergence system.
+- GitLab CI/CD for Continuous Integration and the agent for Continuous Deployment.
+
+This diagram shows the repositories and main actors in a GitOps deployment:
+
+```mermaid
+sequenceDiagram
+ participant D as Developer
+ participant A as Application code repository
+ participant M as Manifest repository
+ participant K as GitLab agent
+ participant C as Agent configuration repository

+ K-->>C: Grab the configuration
+ end
+ D->>+A: Pushing code changes
+ A->>M: Updating manifest
+ loop Regularly
+ K-->>M: Watching changes

+ end
+```
+
+For details, view the [architecture documentation](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/cluster-integration/gitlab-agent/-/blob/master/doc/architecture.md#high-level-architecture).
+
+## GitOps workflow steps
+
+To update a Kubernetes cluster by using GitOps, complete the following steps.
+
+1. Ensure you have a working Kubernetes cluster, and that the manifests are in a GitLab project.
+1. In the same project, [register and install the GitLab agent](install/index.md).
+1. Configure the agent configuration file so that the agent monitors the project for changes to the Kubernetes manifests.
+ Use the [GitOps configuration reference](#gitops-configuration-reference) for guidance.
+
+Any time you commit updates to your Kubernetes manifests, the agent updates the cluster.
+
+## GitOps configuration reference
+
+The following snippet shows an example of the possible keys and values for the GitOps section of an agent configuration file.
+
+```yaml
+gitops:
+ manifest_projects:
+ - id: gitlab-org/cluster-integration/gitlab-agent
+ default_namespace: my-ns
+ paths:
+ # Read all YAML files from this directory.
+ - glob: '/team1/app1/*.yaml'
+ # Read all .yaml files from team2/apps and all subdirectories.
+ - glob: '/team2/apps/**/*.yaml'
+ # If 'paths' is not specified or is an empty list, the configuration below is used.
+ - glob: '/**/*.{yaml,yml,json}'
+ reconcile_timeout: 3600s
+ dry_run_strategy: none
+ prune: true
+ prune_timeout: 3600s
+ prune_propagation_policy: foreground
+ inventory_policy: must_match
+```
+
+| Keyword | Description |
+|--|--|
+| `manifest_projects` | Projects where your Kubernetes manifests are stored. The agent monitors the files in the repositories in these projects. When manifest files change, the agent deploys the changes to the cluster. |
+| `id` | Required. Path to a Git repository that has Kubernetes manifests in YAML or JSON format. No authentication mechanisms are currently supported. |
+| `default_namespace` | Namespace to use if not set explicitly in object manifest. Also used for inventory `ConfigMap` objects. |
+| `paths` | Repository paths to scan for manifest files. Directories with names that start with a dot `(.)` are ignored. |
+| `paths[].glob` | Required. See [doublestar](https://github.com/bmatcuk/doublestar#about) and [the match function](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/bmatcuk/doublestar/v2#Match) for globbing rules. |
+| `reconcile_timeout` | Determines whether the applier should wait until all applied resources have been reconciled, and if so, how long to wait. Default is 3600 seconds (1 hour). |
+| `dry_run_strategy` | Determines whether changes [should be performed](https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/cli-utils/blob/d6968048dcd80b1c7b55d9e4f31fc25f71c9b490/pkg/common/common.go#L68-L89). Can be: `none`, `client`, or `server`. Default is `none`.|
+| `prune` | Determines whether pruning of previously applied objects should happen after apply. Default is `true`. |
+| `prune_timeout` | Determines whether to wait for all resources to be fully deleted after pruning, and if so, how long to wait. Default is 3600 seconds (1 hour). |
+| `prune_propagation_policy` | The deletion propagation policy that [should be used for pruning](https://github.com/kubernetes/apimachinery/blob/44113beed5d39f1b261a12ec398a356e02358307/pkg/apis/meta/v1/types.go#L456-L470). Can be: `orphan`, `background`, or `foreground`. Default is `foreground`. |
+| `inventory_policy` | Determines whether an inventory object can take over objects that belong to another inventory object or don't belong to any inventory object. This is done by determining if the apply/prune operation can go through for a resource based on comparison of the `inventory-id` value in the package and the `owning-inventory` annotation (`config.k8s.io/owning-inventory`) [in the live object](https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/cli-utils/blob/d6968048dcd80b1c7b55d9e4f31fc25f71c9b490/pkg/inventory/policy.go#L12-L66). Can be: `must_match`, `adopt_if_no_inventory`, or `adopt_all`. Default is `must_match`. |

+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Avoiding conflicts when you have multiple projects
+
+The agent watches each glob pattern set under a project's `paths` section independently, and makes updates to the cluster concurrently.
+If changes are found at multiple paths, when the agent attempts to update the cluster,
+a conflict can occur.
+
+To prevent this from happening, consider storing a logical group of manifests in a single place and reference them only once to avoid overlapping globs.
+
+For example, both of these globs match `*.yaml` files in the root directory
+and could cause conflicts:
+

+# Managing Kubernetes secrets in a GitOps workflow
+
+You should never store Kubernetes secrets in unencrypted form in a `git` repository. If you use a GitOps workflow, you can follow these steps to securely manage your secrets.
+
+1. Set up the Sealed Secrets controller to manage secrets.
+1. Deploy Docker credentials so the cluster can pull images from the GitLab Container Registry.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+This setup requires:
+
+- A [GitLab agent for Kubernetes configured for the GitOps workflow](../gitops.md).
+- Access to the cluster to finish the setup.
+
+## Set up the Sealed Secrets controller to manage secrets
+
+You can use the [Sealed Secrets controller](https://github.com/bitnami-labs/sealed-secrets) to store encrypted secrets securely in a `git` repository. The controller decrypts the secret into a standard Kubernetes `Secret` kind resource.
+
+1. Go to [the Sealed Secrets release page](https://github.com/bitnami-labs/sealed-secrets/releases) and download the most recent `controller.yaml` file.
+1. In GitLab, go to the project that contains your Kubernetes manifests and upload the `controller.yaml` file.
+1. Open the agent configuration file (`config.yaml`) and if needed, update the `paths.glob` pattern to match the Sealed Secrets manifest.
+1. Commit and push the changes to GitLab.
+1. Confirm that the Sealed Secrets controller was installed successfully:
+
+ ```shell
+ kubectl get pods -lname=sealed-secrets-controller -n kube-system
+ ```
+
+1. Install the `kubeseal` command line utility by following [the Sealed Secrets instructions](https://github.com/bitnami-labs/sealed-secrets#homebrew).
+1. Get the public key you need to encrypt secrets without direct access to the cluster:
+
+ ```shell
+ kubeseal --fetch-cert > public.pem
+ ```
+
+1. Commit the public key to the repository.
+
+For more details on how the Sealed Secrets controller works, view [the usage instructions](https://github.com/bitnami-labs/sealed-secrets/blob/main/README.md#usage).
+
+## Deploy Docker credentials
+
+To deploy containers from the GitLab Container Registry, you must configure the cluster with the proper Docker registry credentials. You can achieve this by deploying a `docker-registry` type secret.
+
+1. Generate a GitLab token with at least `read-registry` rights. The token can be either a Personal or a Project Access Token.
+1. Create a Kubernetes secret manifest YAML file. Update the values as needed:
+
+ ```shell
+ kubectl create secret docker-registry gitlab-credentials --docker-server=registry.gitlab.example.com --docker-username=<gitlab-username> --docker-password=<gitlab-token> --docker-email=<gitlab-user-email> -n <namespace> --dry-run=client -o yaml > gitlab-credentials.yaml
+ ```
+
+1. Encrypt the secret into a `SealedSecret` manifest:
+
+ ```shell
+ kubeseal --format=yaml --cert=public.pem < gitlab-credentials.yaml > gitlab-credentials.sealed.yaml
+ ```

-
-With GitOps, you can manage containerized clusters and applications from a Git repository that:
-
-- Is the single source of truth of your system.
-- Is the single place where you operate your system.
-
-By combining GitLab, Kubernetes, and GitOps, you can have:
-
-- GitLab as the GitOps operator.
-- Kubernetes as the automation and convergence system.
-- GitLab CI/CD for Continuous Integration and the agent for Continuous Deployment.

-For details, view the [architecture documentation](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/cluster-integration/gitlab-agent/-/blob/master/doc/architecture.md#high-level-architecture).
-
-To perform GitOps deployments, you need:
-
-- A properly-configured Kubernetes cluster where the GitLab agent is running.
-- A project that contains the agent's configuration file (`config.yaml`) in the repository.
- This file tells the agent which repositories to synchronize with the cluster.
-- A project that contains Kubernetes manifests. Any changes to manifests are applied to the cluster.
-
-You can keep the agent's configuration file and Kubernetes manifests in one project, or you can use multiple.
-
-- One GitLab project (recommended): When you use one project for both the Kubernetes manifests
- and the agent's configuration file, the projects can be either private or public.
-- Two GitLab projects: When you use two different GitLab projects (one for Kubernetes
- manifests and another for the agent's configuration file), the project with Kubernetes manifests must

-## Remove an agent
-
-You can remove an agent by using the [GitLab UI](#remove-an-agent-through-the-gitlab-ui) or the [GraphQL API](#remove-an-agent-with-the-gitlab-graphql-api).
-
-### Remove an agent through the GitLab UI
-
-> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/323055) in GitLab 14.7.
-
-To remove an agent from the UI:
-
-1. On the top bar, select **Menu > Projects** and find the project that contains the agent's configuration file.
-1. From the left sidebar, select **Infrastructure > Kubernetes clusters**.
-1. In the table, in the row for your agent, in the **Options** column, select the vertical ellipsis (**{ellipsis_v}**).
-1. Select **Delete agent**.
-
-### Remove an agent with the GitLab GraphQL API
-
-1. Get the `<cluster-agent-token-id>` from a query in the interactive GraphQL explorer.
- - For GitLab.com, go to <https://gitlab.com/-/graphql-explorer> to open GraphQL Explorer.
- - For self-managed GitLab, go to `https://gitlab.example.com/-/graphql-explorer`, replacing `gitlab.example.com` with your instance's URL.
-
- ```graphql
- query{
- project(fullPath: "<full-path-to-agent-configuration-project>") {
- clusterAgent(name: "<agent-name>") {
- id
- tokens {
- edges {
- node {
- id
- }
- }
- }
- }
- }
- }
- ```
-
-1. Remove an agent record with GraphQL by deleting the `clusterAgentToken`.
-
- ```graphql
- mutation deleteAgent {
- clusterAgentDelete(input: { id: "<cluster-agent-id>" } ) {
- errors
- }
- }
-
- mutation deleteToken {
- clusterAgentTokenDelete(input: { id: "<cluster-agent-token-id>" }) {
- errors
- }
- }
- ```
-
-1. Verify whether the removal occurred successfully. If the output in the Pod logs includes `unauthenticated`, it means that the agent was successfully removed:
-
- ```json
- {
- "level": "warn",
- "time": "2021-04-29T23:44:07.598Z",
- "msg": "GetConfiguration.Recv failed",
- "error": "rpc error: code = Unauthenticated desc = unauthenticated"
- }
- ```
-
-1. Delete the agent in your cluster:
-
- ```shell
- kubectl delete -n gitlab-kubernetes-agent -f ./resources.yml
- ```

-
-WARNING:
-Cilium integration is in its end-of-life process. It's [deprecated](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/7476)
-for use in GitLab 14.8, and planned for [removal](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/7477)
-in GitLab 15.0.
-
-The agent for Kubernetes also provides an integration with Cilium. This integration provides a simple way to
-generate network policy-related alerts and to surface those alerts in GitLab.
-
-Several components work in concert for the agent to generate the alerts:
-
-- A working Kubernetes cluster.
-- Cilium integration through either of these options:
- - Installation through [cluster management template](../../project/clusters/protect/container_network_security/quick_start_guide.md#use-the-cluster-management-template-to-install-cilium).
- - Enablement of [hubble-relay](https://docs.cilium.io/en/v1.8/concepts/overview/#hubble) on an
- existing installation.
-- One or more network policies through any of these options:
- - Use the [Container Network Policy editor](../../application_security/policies/index.md#container-network-policy-editor) to create and manage policies.
- - Use an [AutoDevOps](../../application_security/policies/index.md#container-network-policy) configuration.
- - Add the required labels and annotations to existing network policies.
-- A configuration repository with [Cilium configured in `config.yaml`](repository.md#surface-network-security-alerts-from-cluster-to-gitlab)
+## Migrate to the agent from the legacy certificate-based integration
-The setup process follows the same [agent's installation steps](install/index.md),
-with the following differences:
-
-- When you define a configuration repository, you must do so with [Cilium settings](repository.md#surface-network-security-alerts-from-cluster-to-gitlab).
-- You do not need to specify the `gitops` configuration section.

+## View an agent's activity information
-### Using multiple manifest projects
+> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/277323) in GitLab 14.6.
-Storing Kubernetes manifests in more than one repository can be handy, for example:
+The activity logs help you to identify problems and get the information
+you need for troubleshooting. You can see events from a week before the
+current date. To view an agent's activity:
-- You may store manifests for different applications in separate repositories.
-- Different teams can work on manifests of independent projects in separate repositories.
+1. On the top bar, select **Menu > Projects** and find the project that contains your agent configuration file.
+1. On the left sidebar, select **Infrastructure > Kubernetes clusters**.
+1. Select the agent you want to see activity for.
-To use multiple repositories as the source of Kubernetes manifests, specify them in the list of
-`manifest_projects` in your `config.yaml`:
+The activity list includes:
-```yaml
-gitops:
- manifest_projects:
- - id: group1/project1
- - id: group2/project2
-```
+- Agent registration events: When a new token is **created**.
+- Connection events: When an agent is successfully **connected** to a cluster.
-Note that repositories are synchronized **concurrently** and **independently** from each other,
-which means that, ideally, there should **not** be any dependencies shared by these repositories.
-Storing a logical group of manifests in a single repository may work better than distributing it across several
-repositories.
+The connection status is logged when you connect an agent for
+the first time or after more than an hour of inactivity.
-You cannot use a single repository as a source for multiple concurrent synchronization
-operations. If such functionality is needed, you may use multiple agents reading
-manifests from the same repository.
+View and provide feedback about the UI in [this epic](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/4739).
-Ensure not to specify "overlapping" globs to avoid synchronizing the same files more than once.
-This is detected by the Agent and leads to an error.
+## Debug the agent
-INCORRECT - both globs match `*.yaml` files in the root directory:
+To debug the cluster-side component (`agentk`) of the agent, set the log
+level according to the available options:
-```yaml
-gitops:
- manifest_projects:
- - id: project1
- paths:
- - glob: '/**/*.yaml'
- - glob: '/*.yaml'
-```
+- `off`
+- `warning`
+- `error`
+- `info`
+- `debug`
-CORRECT - single globs matches all `*.yaml` files recursively:
+The log level defaults to `info`. You can change it by using a top-level `observability`
+section in the configuration file, for example:
```yaml
-gitops:
- manifest_projects:
- - id: project1
- paths:
- - glob: '/**/*.yaml'
+observability:
+ logging:
+ level: debug
```
-## Authorize projects and groups to use an Agent
-
-With the [CI/CD Tunnel](ci_cd_tunnel.md), you can authorize [projects](#authorize-projects-to-use-an-agent)
-and [groups](#authorize-groups-to-use-an-agent) to use an Agent.
-
-Then, you can reach your cluster from authorized projects and [run Kubernetes commands from GitLab CI/CD scripts](#run-kubectl-commands-using-the-cicd-tunnel)
-in these projects.
-
-### Authorize projects to use an Agent
-
-> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/327850) in GitLab 14.4.
-
-To grant projects access to the Agent through the CI/CD Tunnel:
-
-1. Go to your Agent's configuration repository.
-1. Edit the Agent's configuration file (`config.yaml`).
-1. Add the `projects` attribute into `ci_access`.
-1. Identify the project through its path:
-
- ```yaml

- projects:
- - id: path/to/project
+## Reset the agent token
+
+> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/327152) in GitLab 14.9.
+
+To reset the agent token without downtime:
+
+1. Create a new token:
+ 1. On the top bar, select **Menu > Projects** and find your project.
+ 1. On the left sidebar, select **Infrastructure > Kubernetes clusters**.
+ 1. Select the agent you want to create a token for.
+ 1. On the **Tokens** tab, select **Create token**.
+ 1. Enter token's name and description (optional) and select **Create token**.
+1. Securely store the generated token.
+1. Use the token to [install the agent in your cluster](install/index.md#install-the-agent-in-the-cluster) and to [update the agent](install/index.md#update-the-agent-version) to another version.
+1. Delete the token you're no longer using.
+
+## Remove an agent
+
+You can remove an agent by using the [GitLab UI](#remove-an-agent-through-the-gitlab-ui) or the
+[GraphQL API](#remove-an-agent-with-the-gitlab-graphql-api). The agent and any associated tokens
+are removed from GitLab, but no changes are made in your Kubernetes cluster. You must
+clean up those resources manually.
+
+### Remove an agent through the GitLab UI
+
+> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/323055) in GitLab 14.7.
+
+To remove an agent from the UI:
+
+1. On the top bar, select **Menu > Projects** and find the project that contains the agent configuration file.
+1. From the left sidebar, select **Infrastructure > Kubernetes clusters**.
+1. In the table, in the row for your agent, in the **Options** column, select the vertical ellipsis (**{ellipsis_v}**).
+1. Select **Delete agent**.
+
+### Remove an agent with the GitLab GraphQL API
+
+1. Get the `<cluster-agent-token-id>` from a query in the interactive GraphQL explorer.
+ - For GitLab.com, go to <https://gitlab.com/-/graphql-explorer> to open GraphQL Explorer.
+ - For self-managed GitLab, go to `https://gitlab.example.com/-/graphql-explorer`, replacing `gitlab.example.com` with your instance's URL.
+
+ ```graphql
+ query{
+ project(fullPath: "<full-path-to-agent-configuration-project>") {
+ clusterAgent(name: "<agent-name>") {
+ id
+ tokens {
+ edges {
+ node {
+ id
+ }
+ }
+ }
+ }
+ }
+ }
```
-### Authorize groups to use an Agent
+1. Remove an agent record with GraphQL by deleting the `clusterAgentToken`.
-> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/5784) in GitLab 14.3.
+ ```graphql
+ mutation deleteAgent {
+ clusterAgentDelete(input: { id: "<cluster-agent-id>" } ) {
+ errors
+ }
+ }
-To grant access to all projects within a group:
-
-1. Go to your Agent's configuration repository.
-1. Edit the Agent's configuration file (`config.yaml`).
-1. Add the `groups` attribute into `ci_access`.
-1. Identify the group or subgroup through its path:
-
- ```yaml
- ci_access:
- groups:
- - id: path/to/group/subgroup
+ mutation deleteToken {
+ clusterAgentTokenDelete(input: { id: "<cluster-agent-token-id>" }) {
+ errors
+ }
+ }
```
-## Run `kubectl` commands using the CI/CD Tunnel
-
-After you authorize your project or group to use the Agent, you need to
-configure the project's `.gitlab-ci.yaml` file to access the Agent.
-This makes it possible to deploy applications to your cluster and run
-any Kubernetes-specific commands from the authorized project.
-
-First, configure your Agent:
-
-1. Go to your Agent's configuration repository.
-1. Edit your Agent's `config.yaml` file authorizing the [project](#authorize-projects-to-use-an-agent) or [group](#authorize-groups-to-use-an-agent) you want to run Kubernetes commands from.
-
-Then, configure the other project:
-
-1. Go to the project where you want to run Kubernetes commands from.
-1. Edit your project's `.gitlab-ci.yml` file.
-1. Set your Agent's context in the first command of the script with the format `path/to/agent/repository:agent-name`.
-1. Run Kubernetes commands.
-
-For example:
-
-```yaml
- deploy:
- image:
- name: bitnami/kubectl:latest
- entrypoint: [""]
- script:
- - kubectl config use-context path/to/agent/repository:agent-name
- - kubectl get pods
-```
-
-When you use the Agent, KubeContexts are named as `path/to/agent/repository:agent-name`.
-
-To get the list of available contexts:
-
-1. Open your terminal and connect to your cluster.
-1. Run `kubectl config get-contexts`.
-
-### `kubectl` commands not supported
-
-The commands `kubectl exec`, `kubectl cp`, and `kubectl attach` are not supported by the CI/CD tunnel.
-Anything else that uses the same API endpoints does not work either as they use the deprecated
-SPDY protocol.
-We [plan to add support for these features](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/346248)
-in a future version of GitLab.
-
-### `kubectl` requires TLS
-
-`kubectl` would never send credentials over an unencrypted connection. Self-managed users should ensure that their
-GitLab instance is configured with TLS for the CI/CD tunnel feature to work. Trying to use it without TLS
-would produce errors:
-
-```shell
-$ kubectl get pods
-error: You must be logged in to the server (the server has asked for the client to provide credentials)
-```
-
-## Use impersonation to restrict project and group access **(PREMIUM)**
-
-> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/345014) in GitLab 14.5.
-
-By default, the [CI/CD Tunnel](ci_cd_tunnel.md) inherits all the permissions from the service account used to install the
-Agent in the cluster.
-To restrict access to your cluster, you can use [impersonation](https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/access-authn-authz/authentication/#user-impersonation).
-
-To specify impersonations, use the `access_as` attribute in your Agent's configuration file and use Kubernetes RBAC rules to manage impersonated account permissions.
-
-You can impersonate:
-
-- The Agent itself (default).
-- The CI job that accesses the cluster.
-- A specific user or system account defined within the cluster.
-
-### Impersonate the Agent
-
-The Agent is impersonated by default. You don't need to do anything to impersonate it.
-
-### Impersonate the CI job that accesses the cluster
-
-To impersonate the CI job that accesses the cluster, add the `ci_job: {}` key-value
-under the `access_as` key.
-
-When the agent makes the request to the actual Kubernetes API, it sets the
-impersonation credentials in the following way:
-
-- `UserName` is set to `gitlab:ci_job:<job id>`. Example: `gitlab:ci_job:1074499489`.
-- `Groups` is set to:
- - `gitlab:ci_job` to identify all requests coming from CI jobs.
- - The list of IDs of groups the project is in.
- - The project ID.
- - The slug of the environment this job belongs to.
+1. Verify whether the removal occurred successfully. If the output in the Pod logs includes `unauthenticated`, it means that the agent was successfully removed:
- Example: for a CI job in `group1/group1-1/project1` where:
-
- - Group `group1` has ID 23.
- - Group `group1/group1-1` has ID 25.
- - Project `group1/group1-1/project1` has ID 150.
- - Job running in a prod environment.
-
- Group list would be `[gitlab:ci_job, gitlab:group:23, gitlab:group:25, gitlab:project:150, gitlab:project_env:150:prod]`.
-
-- `Extra` carries extra information about the request. The following properties are set on the impersonated identity:
-
-| Property | Description |
-| -------- | ----------- |
-| `agent.gitlab.com/id` | Contains the agent ID. |
-| `agent.gitlab.com/config_project_id` | Contains the agent's configuration project ID. |
-| `agent.gitlab.com/project_id` | Contains the CI project ID. |
-| `agent.gitlab.com/ci_pipeline_id` | Contains the CI pipeline ID. |
-| `agent.gitlab.com/ci_job_id` | Contains the CI job ID. |
-| `agent.gitlab.com/username` | Contains the username of the user the CI job is running as. |
-| `agent.gitlab.com/environment_slug` | Contains the slug of the environment. Only set if running in an environment. |
-
-Example to restrict access by the CI job's identity:
-
-```yaml
-ci_access:
- projects:
- - id: path/to/project
- access_as:
- ci_job: {}
-```
-
-### Impersonate a static identity
-
-For the given CI/CD Tunnel connection, you can use a static identity for the impersonation.
-
-Add the `impersonate` key under the `access_as` key to make the request using the provided identity.
-
-The identity can be specified with the following keys:
+ ```json
+ {
+ "level": "warn",
+ "time": "2021-04-29T23:44:07.598Z",
+ "msg": "GetConfiguration.Recv failed",
+ "error": "rpc error: code = Unauthenticated desc = unauthenticated"
+ }
+ ```
-- `username` (required)
-- `uid`
-- `groups`
-- `extra`
+1. Delete the agent in your cluster:
-See the [official Kubernetes documentation for more details](https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/access-authn-authz/authentication/#user-impersonation) on the usage of these keys.
+ ```shell
+ kubectl delete -n gitlab-kubernetes-agent -f ./resources.yml

-The GitLab Agent provides an [integration with Cilium](index.md#kubernetes-network-security-alerts).
+The agent for Kubernetes also provides an integration with Cilium. This integration provides a simple way to
+generate network policy-related alerts and to surface those alerts in GitLab.
+
+Several components work in concert for the agent to generate the alerts:
+
+- A working Kubernetes cluster.
+- Cilium integration through either of these options:
+ - Installation through [cluster management template](../../project/clusters/protect/container_network_security/quick_start_guide.md#use-the-cluster-management-template-to-install-cilium).

+- One or more network policies through any of these options:
+ - Use the [Container Network Policy editor](../../application_security/policies/index.md#container-network-policy-editor) to create and manage policies.
+ - Use an [AutoDevOps](../../application_security/policies/index.md#container-network-policy) configuration.
+ - Add the required labels and annotations to existing network policies.

-## Scan your container images for vulnerabilities **(ULTIMATE)**
-
-You can use [cluster image scanning](../../application_security/cluster_image_scanning/index.md)
-to scan container images in your cluster for security vulnerabilities.
-
-To begin scanning all resources in your cluster, add a `starboard`
-configuration block to your agent's `config.yaml` with no `filters`:
-
-```yaml
-starboard:
- vulnerability_report:
- filters: []
-```
-
-The namespaces that are able to be scanned depend on the [Starboard Operator install mode](https://aquasecurity.github.io/starboard/latest/operator/configuration/#install-modes).
-By default, the Starboard Operator only scans resources in the `default` namespace. To change this
-behavior, edit the `STARBOARD_OPERATOR` environment variable in the `starboard-operator` deployment
-definition.
-
-By adding filters, you can limit scans by:
-
-- Resource name
-- Kind
-- Container name
-- Namespace
-
-```yaml
-starboard:
- vulnerability_report:
- filters:
- - namespaces:
- - staging
- - production
- kinds:
- - Deployment
- - DaemonSet
- containers:
- - ruby
- - postgres
- - nginx
- resources:
- - my-app-name
- - postgres
- - ingress-nginx
-```
-
-A resource is scanned if the resource matches any of the given names and all of the given filter
-types (`namespaces`, `kinds`, `containers`, `resources`). If a filter type is omitted, then all
-names are scanned. In this example, a resource isn't scanned unless it has a container named `ruby`,
-`postgres`, or `nginx`, and it's a `Deployment`:
-
-```yaml
-starboard:
- vulnerability_report:
- filters:
- - kinds:
- - Deployment
- containers:
- - ruby
- - postgres
- - nginx
-```
-
-There is also a global `namespaces` field that applies to all filters:
-
-```yaml
-starboard:
- vulnerability_report:
- namespaces:
- - production
- filters:
- - kinds:
- - Deployment
- - kinds:
- - DaemonSet
- resources:
- - log-collector
-```
-
-In this example, the following resources are scanned:
-
-- All deployments (`Deployment`) in the `production` namespace
-- All daemon sets (`DaemonSet`) named `log-collector` in the `production` namespace
-
-## Debugging
-
-To debug the cluster-side component (`agentk`) of the Agent, set the log
-level according to the available options:
-
-- `off`
-- `warning`
-- `error`
-- `info`
-- `debug`
-
-The log level defaults to `info`. You can change it by using a top-level `observability`
-section in the configuration file, for example:
-
-```yaml
-observability:
- logging:
- level: debug
-```

+# Linked epics **(ULTIMATE)**
+
+> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/353473) in GitLab 14.9 [with a flag](../../../administration/feature_flags.md) named `related_epics_widget`. Enabled by default.
+
+FLAG:
+On self-managed GitLab, by default this feature is available. To hide the feature,
+ask an administrator to [disable the feature flag](../../../administration/feature_flags.md)
+named `related_epics_widget`. On GitLab.com, this feature is available.
+
+Linked epics are a bi-directional relationship between any two epics and appear in a block below
+the epic description. You can link epics in different groups.
+
+The relationship only shows up in the UI if the user can see both epics. When you try to close an
+epic that has open blockers, a warning is displayed.
+
+NOTE:
+To manage linked epics through our API, visit the [epic links API documentation](../../../api/linked_epics.md).
+
+## Add a linked epic
+
+Prerequisites:
+
+- You must have at least the Reporter role for both groups.
+- For GitLab SaaS: the epic that you're editing must be in a group on GitLab Ultimate.
+ The epics you're linking can be in a group on a lower tier.
+
+To link one epic to another:
+
+1. In the **Linked epics** section of an epic,
+ select the add linked epic button (**{plus}**).
+1. Select the relationship between the two epics. Either:
+ - **relates to**
+ - **[blocks](#blocking-epics)**
+ - **[is blocked by](#blocking-epics)**
+1. Enter the epic number or paste in the full URL of the epic.
+
+ ![Adding a related epic](img/related_epics_add_v14_9.png)
+
+ Epics of the same group can be specified just by the reference number.
+ Epics from a different group require additional information like the
+ group name. For example:
+
+ - The same group: `&44`
+ - Different group: `group&44`
+
+ Valid references are added to a temporary list that you can review.
+
+1. Select **Add**.
+
+The linked epics are then displayed on the epic grouped by relationship.

+## Remove a linked epic
+
+Prerequisites:
+
+- You must have at least the Reporter role for the epic's group.
+
+To remove a linked epic, in the **Linked epics** section of an epic,
+select **Remove** (**{close}**) next to
+each epic.
+
+The relationship is removed from both epics.

# Subgroups **(FREE)**
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/-/issues/2772) in GitLab 9.0.
-GitLab supports up to 20 levels of subgroups, also known as nested groups or hierarchical groups.
-
-By using subgroups you can do the following:
-
-- **Separate internal / external organizations.** Since every group
- can have its own visibility level ([public, internal, or private](../../../development/permissions.md#general-permissions)),
- you're able to host groups for different purposes under the same umbrella.
-- **Organize large projects.** For large projects, subgroups makes it
- potentially easier to separate permissions on parts of the source code.
-- **Make it easier to manage people and control visibility.** Give people
- different [permissions](../../permissions.md#group-members-permissions) depending on their group [membership](#membership).
-
-For more information on allowed permissions in groups and projects, see
-[visibility levels](../../../development/permissions.md#general-permissions).
-
-## Overview
-
-A group can have many subgroups inside it, and at the same time a group can have
-only one immediate parent group. It resembles a directory behavior or a nested items list:
-
-- Group 1
- - Group 1.1
- - Group 1.2
- - Group 1.2.1
- - Group 1.2.2
- - Group 1.2.2.1
-
-In a real world example, imagine maintaining a GNU/Linux distribution with the
-first group being the name of the distribution, and subsequent groups split as follows:
-
-- Organization Group - GNU/Linux distro
- - Category Subgroup - Packages
- - (project) Package01
- - (project) Package02
- - Category Subgroup - Software
- - (project) Core
- - (project) CLI
- - (project) Android app
- - (project) iOS app
- - Category Subgroup - Infra tools
- - (project) Ansible playbooks
-
-Another example of GitLab as a company would be the following:
-
-- Organization Group - GitLab
- - Category Subgroup - Marketing
- - (project) Design
- - (project) General
- - Category Subgroup - Software
- - (project) GitLab CE
- - (project) GitLab EE
- - (project) Omnibus GitLab
- - (project) GitLab Runner
- - (project) GitLab Pages daemon
- - Category Subgroup - Infra tools
- - (project) Chef cookbooks
- - Category Subgroup - Executive team
-
-When performing actions such as transferring or importing a project between
-subgroups, the behavior is the same as when performing these actions at the
-`group/project` level.
-
-## Creating a subgroup
-
-Users can create subgroups if they are explicitly added as an Owner (or
-Maintainer, if that setting is enabled) to an immediate parent group, even if group
-creation is disabled by an administrator in their settings.
+You can organize GitLab [groups](../index.md) into subgroups. You can use subgroups to:
+
+- Separate internal and external organizations. Because every subgroup can have its own
+ [visibility level](../../../development/permissions.md#general-permissions), you can host groups for different
+ purposes under the same parent group.
+- Organize large projects. You can use subgroups to give different access to parts of
+ the source code.
+- Manage people and control visibility. Give a user a different
+ [role](../../permissions.md#group-members-permissions) for each group they're [a member of](#subgroup-membership).
+
+Subgroups can:
+
+- Belong to one immediate parent group.
+- Have many subgroups.
+- Be nested up to 20 levels.
+- Use [runners](../../../ci/runners/index.md) registered to parent groups:
+ - Secrets configured for the parent group are available to subgroup jobs.
+ - Users with the Maintainer role in projects that belong to subgroups can see the details of runners registered to
+ parent groups.
+
+For example:
+
+```mermaid
+graph TD
+ subgraph "Parent group"
+ subgraph "Subgroup A"
+ subgraph "Subgroup A1"
+ G["Project E"]
+ end
+ C["Project A"]
+ D["Project B"]
+ E["Project C"]
+ end
+ subgraph "Subgroup B"
+ F["Project D"]
+ end
+ end
+```
+
+## Create a subgroup
+
+Users with the at least the Maintainer role on a group can create subgroups immediately below the group, unless
+[configured otherwise](#change-who-can-create-subgroups). These users can create subgroups even if group creation is
+[disabled by an Administrator](../../admin_area/index.md#prevent-a-user-from-creating-groups) in the user's settings.
To create a subgroup:
-1. On the top bar, select **Menu > Groups** and find the parent group.

+1. Fill in the fields. View a list of [reserved names](../../reserved_names.md) that cannot be used as group names.
1. Select **Create group**.
### Change who can create subgroups
-To create a subgroup you must either be an Owner or a Maintainer of the
-group, depending on the group's setting.
+To create a subgroup, you must have at least the Maintainer role on the group, depending on the group's setting. By
+default:
-By default:
+- In GitLab 12.2 or later, users with at least the Maintainer role can create subgroups.
+- In GitLab 12.1 or earlier, only users with the Owner role can create subgroups.
-- In GitLab 12.2 or later, both Owners and Maintainers can create subgroups.
-- In GitLab 12.1 or earlier, only Owners can create subgroups.
+To change who can create subgroups on a group:
-You can change this setting:
-
-- As group owner:
- 1. Select the group.
+- As a user with the Owner role on the group:
+ 1. On the top bar, select **Menu > Groups** and find the group.
1. On the left sidebar, select **Settings > General**.
1. Expand **Permissions and group features**.
+ 1. Select a role from the **Allowed to create subgroups** dropdown.
- As an administrator:
1. On the top bar, select **Menu > Admin**.
1. On the left sidebar, select **Overview > Groups**.
1. Select the group, and select **Edit**.
+ 1. Select a role from the **Allowed to create subgroups** dropdown.
For more information, view the [permissions table](../../permissions.md#group-members-permissions).
-## Membership
-
-When you add a member to a group, that member is also added to all subgroups.
-Permission level is inherited from the group's parent. This model allows access to
-subgroups if you have membership in one of its parents.
+## Subgroup membership
-Jobs for pipelines in subgroups can use [runners](../../../ci/runners/index.md) registered to the parent group(s).
-This means secrets configured for the parent group are available to subgroup jobs.
+When you add a member to a group, that member is also added to all subgroups. The user's permissions are inherited from
+the group's parent.
-In addition, maintainers of projects that belong to subgroups can see the details of runners registered to parent group(s).
+Subgroup members can:
-The group permissions for a member can be changed only by Owners, and only on
-the **Members** page of the group the member was added.
+1. Be [direct members](../../project/members/index.md#add-users-to-a-project) of the subgroup.
+1. [Inherit membership](../../project/members/index.md#inherited-membership) of the subgroup from the subgroup's parent group.
+1. Be a member of a group that was [shared with the subgroup's top-level group](../index.md#share-a-group-with-another-group).
-You can tell if a member has inherited the permissions from a parent group by
-looking at the group's **Members** page.
+```mermaid
+flowchart RL
+ subgraph Group A
+ A(Direct member)
+ B{{Shared member}}
+ subgraph Subgroup A
+ H(1. Direct member)
+ C{{2. Inherited member}}
+ D{{Inherited member}}
+ E{{3. Shared member}}
+ end
+ A-->|Direct membership of Group A\nInherited membership of Subgroup A|C
+ end
+ subgraph Group C
+ G(Direct member)
+ end
+ subgraph Group B
+ F(Direct member)
+ end
+ F-->|Group B\nshared with\nGroup A|B

+ G-->|Group C shared with Subgroup A|E
+```
-![Group members page](img/group_members_v14_4.png)
+Group permissions for a member can be changed only by:
-From the image above, we can deduce the following things:
+- Users with the Owner role on the group.
+- Changing the configuration of the group the member was added to.
-- There are 5 members that have access to the group `four`.
-- User 0 is a Reporter and has inherited their permissions from group `one`
- which is above the hierarchy of group `four`.
-- User 1 is a Developer and has inherited their permissions from group
- `one/two` which is above the hierarchy of group `four`.
-- User 2 is a Developer and has inherited their permissions from group
- `one/two/three` which is above the hierarchy of group `four`.
-- For User 3 the **Source** column indicates **Direct member**, therefore they belong to
- group `four`, the one we're inspecting.
-- Administrator is the Owner and member of **all** subgroups and for that reason,
- as with User 3, the **Source** column indicates **Direct member**.
+### Determine membership inheritance
-Members can be [filtered by inherited or direct membership](../index.md#filter-a-group).
+To see if a member has inherited the permissions from a parent group:
-### Overriding the ancestor group membership
+1. On the top bar, select **Menu > Groups** and find the group.
+1. Select **Group information > Members**.

-NOTE:
-A user's permissions in a subgroup cannot be lower than in any of its ancestor groups.
-Therefore, you cannot reduce a user's permissions in a subgroup with respect to its ancestor groups.
+![Group members page](img/group_members_v14_4.png)
-To override a user's membership of an ancestor group (the first group they were
-added to), add the user to the new subgroup again with a higher set of permissions.
+In the screenshot above:
+
+- Five members have access to group _Four_.
+- User 0 has the Reporter role on group _Four_, and has inherited their permissions from group _One_:
+ - User 0 is a direct member of group _One_.
+ - Group _One_ is above group _Four_ in the hierarchy.
+- User 1 has the Developer role on group _Four_ and inherited their permissions from group _Two_:
+ - User 0 is a direct member of group _Two_, which is a subgroup of group _One_.
+ - Groups _One / Two_ are above group _Four_ in the hierarchy.
+- User 2 has the Developer role on group _Four_ and has inherited their permissions from group _Three_:
+ - User 0 is a direct member of group _Three_, which is a subgroup of group _Two_. Group _Two_ is a subgroup of group
+ _One_.
+ - Groups _One / Two / Three_ are above group _Four_ the hierarchy.
+- User 3 is a direct member of group _Four_. This means they get their Maintainer role directly from group _Four_.
+- Administrator has the Owner role on group _Four_ and is a member of all subgroups. For that reason, as with User 3,
+ the **Source** column indicates they are a direct member.
-For example, if User 1 was first added to group `one/two` with Developer
-permissions, then they inherit those permissions in every other subgroup
-of `one/two`. To give them the Maintainer role for group `one/two/three/four`,
-you would add them again in that group as Maintainer. Removing them from that group,
-the permissions fall back to those of the ancestor group.
+Members can be [filtered by inherited or direct membership](../index.md#filter-a-group).
-## Mentioning subgroups
+### Override ancestor group membership
-Mentioning groups (`@group`) in issues, commits and merge requests, would
-notify all members of that group. Now with subgroups, there is more granular
-support if you want to split your group's structure. Mentioning works as before
-and you can choose the group of people to be notified.
+Users with the Owner role on a subgroup can add members to it.
-![Mentioning subgroups](img/mention_subgroups.png)
+You can't give a user a role on a subgroup that's lower than the roles they have on ancestor groups. To override a user's
+role on an ancestor group, add the user to the subgroup again with a higher role. For example:
-## Limitations
+- If User 1 is added to group _Two_ with the Developer role, they inherit that role in every subgroup of group _Two_.
+- To give User 1 the Maintainer role on group _Four_ (under _One / Two / Three_), add them again to group _Four_ with
+ the Maintainer role.
+- If User 1 is removed from group _Four_, their role falls back to their role on group _Two_. They have the Developer
+ role on group _Four_ again.
-Here's a list of what you can't do with subgroups:
+## Mention subgroups
-- [GitLab Pages](../../project/pages/index.md) supports projects hosted under
- a subgroup, but not subgroup websites.
- That means that only the highest-level group supports
- [group websites](../../project/pages/getting_started_part_one.md#gitlab-pages-default-domain-names),
- although you can have project websites under a subgroup.
-- It is not possible to share a project with a group that's an ancestor of
- the group the project is in. That means you can only share as you walk down
- the hierarchy. For example, `group/subgroup01/project` **cannot** be shared
- with `group`, but can be shared with `group/subgroup02` or
- `group/subgroup01/subgroup03`.
+Mentioning subgroups ([`@<subgroup_name>`](../../discussions/index.md#mentions)) in issues, commits, and merge requests
+notifies all members of that group. Mentioning works the same as for projects and groups, and you can choose the group
+of people to be notified.

+| Stage | Measurement method |
+| ------- | -------------------- |
+| Issue | The median time between creating an issue and taking action to solve it, by either labeling it or adding it to a milestone, whichever comes first. The label is tracked only if it already has an [issue board list](../../project/issue_board.md) created for it. |
+| Plan | The median time between the action you took for the previous stage, and pushing the first commit to the branch. The first commit on the branch triggers the separation between **Plan** and **Code**. At least one of the commits in the branch must contain the related issue number (for example, `#42`). If none of the commits in the branch mention the related issue number, it is not considered in the measurement time of the stage. |
+| Code | The median time between pushing a first commit (previous stage) and creating a merge request (MR) related to that commit. The key to keep the process tracked is to include the [issue closing pattern](../../project/issues/managing_issues.md#default-closing-pattern) in the description of the merge request. For example, `Closes #xxx`, where `xxx` is the number of the issue related to this merge request. If the closing pattern is not present, then the calculation uses the creation time of the first commit in the merge request as the start time. |
+| Test | The median time to run the entire pipeline for that project. It's related to the time GitLab CI/CD takes to run every job for the commits pushed to that merge request. It is basically the start->finish time for all pipelines. |
+| Review | The median time taken to review a merge request that has a closing issue pattern, between its creation and until it's merged. |
+| Staging | The median time between merging a merge request that has a closing issue pattern until the very first deployment to a [production environment](#how-value-stream-analytics-identifies-the-production-environment). If there isn't a production environment, this is not tracked. |
-## How the stages are measured
+## Example workflow
-Value stream analytics measures each stage from its start event to its end event.
-For example, a stage might start when one label is added to an issue, and end when another label is added.
-Value stream analytics excludes work in progress, meaning it ignores any items that have not reached the end event.

-How this works, behind the scenes:
+Value stream analytics records the following times for each stage:
-1. Issues and merge requests are grouped together in pairs, such that for each
- `<issue, merge request>` pair, the merge request has the [issue closing pattern](../../project/issues/managing_issues.md#closing-issues-automatically)
- for the corresponding issue. All other issues and merge requests are **not**
- considered.
-1. Then the `<issue, merge request>` pairs are filtered out by last XX days (specified
- by the UI - default is 90 days). So it prohibits these pairs from being considered.
-1. For the remaining `<issue, merge request>` pairs, we check the information that
- we need for the stages, like issue creation date, merge request merge time,
- and so on.

+# Create an Amazon EKS cluster
+
+You can create a cluster on Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS) through
+[Infrastructure as Code (IaC)](../../index.md). This process uses the AWS and
+Kubernetes Terraform providers to create EKS clusters. You connect the clusters to GitLab
+by using the GitLab agent for Kubernetes.
+
+**Prerequisites:**
+
+- An Amazon Web Services (AWS) account, with a set of configured
+ [security credentials](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/getting-started-prereqs.html).
+- [A runner](https://docs.gitlab.com/runner/install/) you can use to run the GitLab CI/CD pipeline.
+
+**Steps:**
+
+1. [Import the example project](#import-the-example-project).
+1. [Register the agent for Kubernetes](#register-the-agent).
+1. [Configure your project](#configure-your-project).
+1. [Provision your cluster](#provision-your-cluster).
+
+## Import the example project
+
+To create a cluster from GitLab using Infrastructure as Code, you must
+create a project to manage the cluster from. In this tutorial, you start with
+a sample project and modify it according to your needs.
+
+Start by [importing the example project by URL](../../../project/import/repo_by_url.md).
+
+To import the project:
+
+1. On the top bar, select **Menu > Create new project**.
+1. Select **Import project**.
+1. Select **Repo by URL**.
+1. For the **Git repository URL**, enter `https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/configure/examples/gitlab-terraform-eks.git`.
+1. Complete the fields and select **Create project**.
+
+This project provides you with:
+
+- An Amazon [Virtual Private Cloud (VPC)](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/configure/examples/gitlab-terraform-eks/-/blob/main/vpc.tf).
+- An Amazon [Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS)](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/configure/examples/gitlab-terraform-eks/-/blob/main/eks.tf) cluster.
+- The [GitLab agent for Kubernetes](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/configure/examples/gitlab-terraform-eks/-/blob/main/agent.tf) installed in the cluster.
+
+## Register the agent
+
+To create a GitLab agent for Kubernetes:
+
+1. On the left sidebar, select **Infrastructure > Kubernetes clusters**.
+1. Select **Actions**.
+1. From the **Select an agent** dropdown list, select `eks-agent` and select **Register an agent**.
+1. GitLab generates a registration token for the agent. Securely store this secret token, as you will need it later.
+1. GitLab provides an address for the agent server (KAS), which you will also need later.
+
+## Configure your project
+
+Use CI/CD environment variables to configure your project.
+
+**Required configuration:**
+
+1. On the left sidebar, select **Settings > CI/CD**.
+1. Expand **Variables**.
+1. Set the variable `AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID` to your AWS access key ID.
+1. Set the variable `AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY` to your AWS secret access key.
+1. Set the variable `TF_VAR_agent_token` to the agent token displayed in the previous task.
+1. Set the variable `TF_VAR_kas_address` to the agent server address displayed in the previous task.
+
+**Optional configuration:**
+
+The file [`variables.tf`](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/configure/examples/gitlab-terraform-eks/-/blob/main/variables.tf)
+contains other variables that you can override according to your needs:
+
+- `TF_VAR_region`: Set your cluster's region.
+- `TF_VAR_cluster_name`: Set your cluster's name.
+- `TF_VAR_cluster_version`: Set the version of Kubernetes.
+- `TF_VAR_instance_type`: Set the instance type for the Kubernetes nodes.
+- `TF_VAR_instance_count`: Set the number of Kubernetes nodes.
+- `TF_VAR_agent_version`: Set the version of the GitLab agent.
+- `TF_VAR_agent_namespace`: Set the Kubernetes namespace for the GitLab agent.
+
+View the [AWS Terraform provider](https://registry.terraform.io/providers/hashicorp/aws/latest/docs) and the [Kubernetes Terraform provider](https://registry.terraform.io/providers/hashicorp/kubernetes/latest/docs) documentation for further resource options.
+
+## Provision your cluster
+
+After configuring your project, manually trigger the provisioning of your cluster. In GitLab:
+
+1. On the left sidebar, go to **CI/CD > Pipelines**.
+1. Next to **Play** (**{play}**), select the dropdown icon (**{angle-down}**).
+1. Select **Deploy** to manually trigger the deployment job.
+
+When the pipeline finishes successfully, you can view the new cluster:
+
+- In AWS: From the [EKS console](https://console.aws.amazon.com/eks/home), select **Amazon EKS > Clusters**.
+- In GitLab: On the left sidebar, select **Infrastructure > Kubernetes clusters**.
+
+## Use your cluster
+
+After you provision the cluster, it is connected to GitLab and is ready for deployments. To check the connection:
+
+1. On the left sidebar, select **Infrastructure > Kubernetes clusters**.
+1. In the list, view the **Connection status** column.
+
+For more information about the capabilities of the connection, see [the GitLab agent for Kubernetes documentation](../index.md).
+
+## Remove the cluster
+
+A cleanup job is not included in your pipeline by default. To remove all created resources, you
+must modify your GitLab CI/CD template before running the cleanup job.
+
+To remove all resources:
+
+1. Add the following to your `.gitlab-ci.yml` file:
+
+ ```yaml
+ stages:
+ - init
+ - validate
+ - build
+ - deploy
+ - cleanup
+
+ destroy:
+ extends: .destroy
+ needs: []
+ ```
+
+1. On the left sidebar, select **CI/CD > Pipelines** and select the most recent pipeline.
+1. For the `destroy` job, select **Play** (**{play}**).

-# Inventory object **(PREMIUM)**
+# Tracking cluster resources managed by GitLab **(PREMIUM)**
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/332227) in GitLab 14.0.
-An inventory object is a `ConfigMap` object for keeping track of the set of objects applied to a cluster.
-When you remove objects from a manifest repository, the Agent uses a corresponding inventory object to
-prune (delete) objects from the cluster.
+GitLab uses an inventory object to track the resources you deploy to your cluster.
+The inventory object is a `ConfigMap` that contains a list of controlled objects.
+The managed resources use the `cli-utils.sigs.k8s.io/inventory-id` annotation.
-The Agent creates an inventory object for each manifest project specified in the
-`gitops.manifest_projects` configuration section. The inventory object has to be stored somewhere in the cluster.
-The default behavior is:
+## Default location of the inventory object
-- The `namespace` used comes from `gitops.manifest_projects[].default_namespace`. If you don't specify this parameter
- explicitly, the inventory object is stored in the `default` namespace.
-- The `name` is generated from the numeric project ID of the manifest project and the numeric agent ID.
+In the agent configuration file, you specify a list of projects. For example:
- This way the Agent constructs the name and local where the inventory object is
- stored in the cluster.
+```yaml
+gitops:
+ manifest_projects:
+ - id: gitlab-org/cluster-integration/gitlab-agent
+ default_namespace: my-ns
+```
-The Agent cannot locate the existing inventory object if you:
+The agent creates an inventory object for every item in the `manifest_projects` list.
+The inventory object is stored in the namespace you specify for `default_namespace`.
-- Change `gitops.manifest_projects[].default_namespace` parameter.
-- Move manifests into another project.
+The name and location of the inventory object is based on:
-## Inventory object template
+- The `default_namespace`. If you don't specify this parameter,
+ the inventory object is stored in the `default` namespace.
+- The `name`, which is the ID of the project with the manifest and the ID of the agent.
-The inventory object template is a `ConfigMap` object that allows you to configure the namespace and the name of the inventory
-object. Store this template with manifest files in a single group.
+WARNING:
+The agent cannot locate the existing inventory object if you change
+the `default_namespace` parameter or move manifests to another project.
-Example inventory object template:
+## Change the location of the inventory object
-```yaml
-apiVersion: v1
-kind: ConfigMap
-metadata:
- name: unique-name-for-the-inventory
- namespace: my-project-namespace
- labels:
- cli-utils.sigs.k8s.io/inventory-id: unique-name-for-the-inventory
-```
+You can configure the namespace and the name of the inventory object.
+This action changes the location of the object in the cluster.
+
+1. Create an inventory object template, which is a `ConfigMap` object.
+ For example:
+
+ ```yaml
+ apiVersion: v1
+ kind: ConfigMap
+ metadata:
+ name: unique-name-for-the-inventory
+ namespace: my-project-namespace
+ labels:
+ cli-utils.sigs.k8s.io/inventory-id: unique-name-for-the-inventory
+ ```
+
+1. Specify a `namespace` and `name`. Ensure that the `name` is unique so it doesn't conflict with other
+ inventory objects in the same namespace in the future.
+1. Ensure the value for `cli-utils.sigs.k8s.io/inventory-id` is unique. This value is used for objects
+ tracked by this inventory object. Their `config.k8s.io/owning-inventory` annotation is set to this value.
+
+ The value doesn't have to match the `name` but it's convenient to set them to the same value.
+
+1. Save the file with the manifest files as a single logical group.
-- The `namespace` and `name` fields configure where the real inventory object is created.
-- The `cli-utils.sigs.k8s.io/inventory-id` label with its corresponding value is set on the inventory object, created
- from this template. Make sure that the value is unique (for example, a string of random characters) and doesn't clash
- with any existing or future inventory object templates.
-- Objects tracked by this inventory object have the `config.k8s.io/owning-inventory` annotation set to the value of
- the `cli-utils.sigs.k8s.io/inventory-id` label.
-- The label's value doesn't have to match the `name` but it's convenient to have them set to the same value.
-- Make sure that the `name` is unique so that it doesn't conflict with another inventory object in the same
- namespace in the future.
+## `inventory_policy` options
-## Using GitOps with pre-existing Kubernetes objects
+Sometimes your manifest changes affect resources that aren't tracked by the GitLab inventory object.
-The Agent treats manifest files in the manifest repository as the source of truth. When it applies
-objects from the files to the cluster, it tracks them in an inventory object. If an object already exists,
-The Agent behaves differently based on the `gitops.manifest_projects[].inventory_policy` configuration.
-Check the table below with the available options and when to use them.
+To change how the agent behaves when it overwrites existing and previously untracked resources,
+change the `inventory_policy` value.
`inventory_policy` value | Description |
------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
-`must_match` | This is the default policy. A live object must have the `config.k8s.io/owning-inventory` annotation set to the same value as the `cli-utils.sigs.k8s.io/inventory-id` label on the corresponding inventory object to be updated. Object is not updated and an error is reported if the values don't match or the object doesn't have the annotation. |
-`adopt_if_no_inventory` | This mode allows to "adopt" an object if it doesn't have the `config.k8s.io/owning-inventory` annotation. Use this mode if you want to start managing existing objects using the GitOps feature. Once all objects have been "adopted", we recommend you to put the setting back into the default `must_match` mode to avoid any unexpected adoptions. |
-`adopt_all` | This mode allows to "adopt" an object even if it has the `config.k8s.io/owning-inventory` annotation set to a different value. This mode can be useful if you want to migrate a set of objects from one agent to another one or from some other tool to the Agent. Once all objects have been "adopted", we recommend you to put the setting back into the default `must_match` mode to avoid any unexpected adoptions. |

To prevent server resource starvation, the following application settings are available:

-- `container_registry_cleanup_tags_service_max_list_size`. The maximum number of tags that can be deleted in a single execution. Additional tags must be deleted in another execution.

-
-Instead of being deleted, these records are moved to a system-wide
-user with the username Ghost User, whose sole purpose is to act as a container
-for such records. Any commits made by a deleted user still display the

# Deploy keys **(FREE)**
-Deploy keys allow read-only or read-write access to your
-repositories by importing an SSH public key into your GitLab instance.
+Use deploy keys to access repositories that are hosted in GitLab. In most cases, you use deploy keys
+to access a repository from an external host, like a build server or Continuous Integration (CI) server.
-Deploy keys streamline interactions between your GitLab repository and another
-machine. For example, setting up a deploy key allows secure cloning of your
-repositories to a Continuous Integration (CI) server without setting up a fake
-user account.
+Depending on your needs, you might want to use a [deploy token](../deploy_tokens/) to access a repository instead.
-There are two types of deploy keys:
+| Attribute | Deploy key | Deploy token |
+|------------------|-------------|--------------|
+| Sharing | Shareable between multiple projects, even those in different groups. | Belong to a project or group. |
+| Source | Public SSH key generated on an external host. | Generated on your GitLab instance, and is provided to users only at creation time. |
+| Validity | Valid as long as it's registered and enabled. | Can be given an expiration date. |
+| Registry access | Cannot access a package registry. | Can read from and write to a package registry. |
-- [Project deploy keys](#project-deploy-keys)
-- [Public deploy keys](#public-deploy-keys)
+## Scope
-## Key details on deploy keys
+A deploy key has a defined scope when it is created:
-Deploy keys allow a remote machine (VM, physical, and so on) to access a GitLab
-repository with just a few steps. If you want a remote machine to interact with a GitLab
-repository in automation, it's a simple solution.
+- **Project deploy key:** Access is limited to the selected project.
+- **Public deploy key:** Access can be granted to _any_ project in a GitLab instance. Access to each
+ project must be [granted](#grant-project-access-to-a-public-deploy-key) by a user with at least
+ the Maintainer role.
-A drawback is that your repository could become vulnerable if a remote machine is compromised
-by a hacker. You should limit access to the remote machine before a deploy key is
-enabled on your repository. A good rule to follow is to provide access only to trusted users,
-and make sure that the allowed users have at least the Maintainer role
-in the GitLab project.
+You cannot change a deploy key's scope after creating it.
-If this security implication is a concern for your organization,
-[Deploy Tokens](../deploy_tokens/index.md) works as an alternative, but with more
-security control.
+## Permissions
-## Deploy keys permissions
+A deploy key is given a permission level when it is created:
-You can choose the access level of a deploy key when you enable it on a project:
+- **Read-only:** A read-only deploy key can only read from the repository.
+- **Read-write:** A read-write deploy key can read from, and write to, the repository.
-- `read-only`: The deploy key can read a repository.
-- `read-write`: The deploy key can read a repository and write to it.
+You can change a deploy key's permission level after creating it. Changing a project deploy key's
+permissions only applies for the current project.
-Project maintainers and owners can activate and deactivate deploy keys.
-They can also add their own deploy keys and enable them for this project.
+When a read-write deploy key is used to push a commit, GitLab checks if the creator of the
+deploy key has permission to access the resource.
-When a `write-access` deploy key is used to push a commit, GitLab checks if
-the **creator** of the deploy key has permission to access the resource. For example:
+For example:
- When a deploy key is used to push a commit to a [protected branch](../protected_branches.md),
- the **creator** of the deploy key must have access to the branch.
-- When a deploy key is used to push a commit that triggers a CI/CD pipelines, the **creator** of
- the deploy key must have access to the CI/CD resources (like protected environments, secret variables, and so on).
-- If the **creator** of a deploy key does not have permissions to read a project's
- repository, the deploy key _might_ encounter an error during the process.
+ the _creator_ of the deploy key must have access to the branch.
+- When a deploy key is used to push a commit that triggers a CI/CD pipeline, the _creator_ of the
+ deploy key must have access to the CI/CD resources, including protected environments and secret
+ variables.
-## Differences between deploy keys and deploy tokens
+## View deploy keys
-Both deploy keys and [deploy tokens](../deploy_tokens/index.md#deploy-tokens) can
-help you access a repository, but there are some notables differences between them:
-
-- Deploy keys are shareable between projects that are not related or don't even
- belong to the same group. Deploy tokens belong to either a project or
- [a group](../deploy_tokens/index.md#group-deploy-token).
-- A deploy key is an SSH key you generate on the **remote machine**. A deploy
- token, on the other hand, is generated by your **GitLab instance**, and is
- provided to users only once (at creation time).
-- A deploy key is valid as long as it's registered and enabled. Deploy tokens
- can be time-sensitive, as you can control their validity by setting an
- expiration date to them.
-- You can't log in to a registry with deploy keys, or perform read / write operations
- on it, but this [is possible with deploy tokens](../deploy_tokens/index.md#gitlab-deploy-token).
-- You need an SSH key pair to use deploy keys, but not deploy tokens.

-## How to enable deploy keys
-
-### Project deploy keys
-
-[Project maintainers and owners](../../permissions.md#project-members-permissions)
-can add or enable a deploy key for a project repository:
+To view the deploy keys available to a project:
1. On the top bar, select **Menu > Projects** and find your project.
1. On the left sidebar, select **Settings > Repository**.
1. Expand **Deploy keys**.
-1. Specify a title for the new deploy key and paste your public SSH key.
-1. Optional. To allow `read-write` access, select the **Grant write permissions to this key** checkbox. Leave it unchecked for `read-only` access.
-There are three lists of project deploy keys:
+The deploy keys available are listed:
-- Enabled deploy keys
-- Privately accessible deploy keys
-- Public accessible deploy keys
+- **Enabled deploy keys:** Deploy keys that have access to the project.
+- **Privately accessible deploy keys:** Project deploy keys that don't have access to the project.
+- **Public accessible deploy keys:** Public deploy keys that don't have access to the project.
-![Deploy keys section](img/deploy_keys_v13_0.png)
+## Create a project deploy key
-After you add a key, it's enabled for this project by default and it appears
-in the **Enabled deploy keys** tab.
+Prerequisites:
-In the **Privately accessible deploy keys** tab, you can enable a private key which
-has been already imported in a different project. If you have access to these keys,
-it's because you have either:
+- You must have at least the Maintainer role for the project.
+- [Generate an SSH key pair](../../../ssh/index.md#generate-an-ssh-key-pair). Put the private SSH
+ key on the host that requires access to the repository.
-- Previously uploaded the keys yourself in a different project.
-- You are a maintainer or owner of the other project where the keys were imported.
-
-In the **Publicly accessible deploy keys** tab, you can enable
-keys that were [made available to your entire GitLab instance](#public-deploy-keys).
+1. On the top bar, select **Menu > Projects** and find your project.
+1. On the left sidebar, select **Settings > Repository**.
+1. Expand **Deploy keys**.
+1. Complete the fields.
+1. Optional. To grant `read-write` permission, select the **Grant write permissions to this key**
+ checkbox.
-After a key is added, you can edit it to update its title, or switch between `read-only`
-and `read-write` access.
+A project deploy key is enabled when it is created. You can modify only a project deploy key's
+name and permissions.
-NOTE:
-If you have enabled a privately or publicly accessible or deploy key for your
-project, and if you then update the access level for this key from `read-only` to
-`read-write`, the change is only for the **current project**.
+## Create a public deploy key
-### Public deploy keys
+Prerequisites:
-Public deploy keys allow `read-only` or `read-write` access to any repository in
-your GitLab instance. This allows for the integration of your repositories to
-secure, shared services, such as CI/CD.
+- You must have administrator access.
+- [Generate an SSH key pair](../../../ssh/index.md#generate-an-ssh-key-pair). Put the private SSH
+ key on the host that requires access to the repository.
-Instance administrators can add public deploy keys:
+To create a public deploy key:
1. On the top bar, select **Menu > Admin**.
1. On the left sidebar, select **Deploy Keys**.
1. Select **New deploy key**.
+1. Complete the fields.
+ - Use a meaningful description for **Name**. For example, include the name of the external host
+ or application that will use the public deploy key.
-Make sure your new key has a meaningful title. This title is the primary
-way for project maintainers and owners to identify the correct public deploy key
-to add to a repository or project. For example, the key you set up might be
-intended to give access to a SaaS CI/CD instance. In this case use the name of
-that service in the key title if that is all the key is used for.
+You can modify only a public deploy key's name.
-![Public deploy keys section](img/public_deploy_key_v13_0.png)
+## Grant project access to a public deploy key
-After adding a key, it's available to any shared system. Users with a maintainer role or
-higher can [authorize a public deploy key](#project-deploy-keys) to start using
-it with the project.
+Prerequisites:
-NOTE:
-The **Publicly accessible deploy keys** tab in a Project's CI/CD
-settings only appears if there is at least one Public deploy key configured.
+- You must have at least the Maintainer role for the project.
-Public deploy keys can provide greater security compared to project deploy keys.
-This is because the administrator of the target integrated system is the only
-entity who needs to know or configure the key value.
+To grant a public deploy key access to a project:
-When creating a Public deploy key, consider what scope and permissions are
-required for it across the entire GitLab instance. For very narrow usage, such
-as a single specific service, a `read-only` deploy key tied to this service is
-best. If the service entails broader usage across the instance, a
-deploy key with full `read-write` access is more appropriate.
+1. On the top bar, select **Menu > Projects** and find your project.
+1. On the left sidebar, select **Settings > Repository**.
+1. Expand **Deploy keys**.
+1. Select **Publicly accessible deploy keys**.
+1. In the key's row, select **Enable**.
+1. To grant read-write permission to the public deploy key:
+ 1. In the key's row, select **Edit** (**{pencil}**).
+ 1. Select the **Grant write permissions to this key** checkbox.
+
+## Revoke project access of a deploy key
-WARNING:
-Adding a public deploy key **does not** immediately expose any repository
-to the remote machine. Access to a project is only given when a project
-maintainer chooses to make use of a deploy key in the project's
-configuration.
+To revoke a deploy key's access to a project, you can disable it. Any service that relies on
+a deploy key stops working when the key is disabled.
-## How to disable deploy keys
+Prerequisites:
-[Project maintainers and owners](../../permissions.md#project-members-permissions)
-can remove or disable a deploy key for a project repository:
+- You must have at least the Maintainer role for the project.

1. Expand **Deploy keys**.
1. Select **Disable** (**{cancel}**).
-NOTE:
-Any service that relies on a deploy key stops working after that key is removed.
-
-If the key is **publicly accessible**, it is removed from the project, but can
-still be found under **Publicly accessible deploy keys**.
-
-If the key is **privately accessible** and only in use by this project, it is
-deleted entirely from GitLab on removal.
+What happens to the deploy key when it is disabled depends on the following:
-If the key is **privately accessible** and also in use by other projects, it is
-removed from the project, but still available under **Privately accessible
-deploy keys**.
+- If the key is publicly accessible, it is removed from the project but still available in the

+- If the key is privately accessible and only in use by this project, it is deleted.

+GitLab provides syntax highlighting on all files through the
+[Rouge](https://rubygems.org/gems/rouge) Ruby gem. It attempts to guess what language
+to use based on the file extension, which most of the time is sufficient.
+
+The paths here are Git's built-in [`.gitattributes` interface](https://git-scm.com/docs/gitattributes).
NOTE:
The [Web IDE](web_ide/index.md) and [Snippets](../snippets.md) use [Monaco Editor](https://microsoft.github.io/monaco-editor/)
for text editing, which internally uses the [Monarch](https://microsoft.github.io/monaco-editor/monarch.html)
library for syntax highlighting.
-<!-- vale gitlab.Spelling = NO -->
-
-If GitLab is guessing wrong, you can override its choice of language using the
-`gitlab-language` attribute in `.gitattributes`. For example, if you are working in a Prolog
-project and using the `.pl` file extension (which would normally be highlighted as Perl),
-you can add the following to your `.gitattributes` file:
+## Override syntax highlighting for a file type
-<!-- vale gitlab.Spelling = YES -->
-
-``` conf
-*.pl gitlab-language=prolog
-```
+NOTE:
+The Web IDE [does not support `.gitattribute` files](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/22014).
-<!-- vale gitlab.Spelling = NO -->
+To override syntax highlighting for a file type:
-When you check in and push that change, all `*.pl` files in your project are highlighted as Prolog.
+1. If a `.gitattributes` file does not exist in the root directory of your project,
+ create a blank file with this name.
+1. For each file type you want to modify, add a line to the `.gitattributes` file
+ declaring the file extension and your desired highlighting language:
-<!-- vale gitlab.Spelling = YES -->
+ ```conf
+ # This extension would normally receive Perl syntax highlighting
+ # but if we also use Prolog, we may want to override highlighting for
+ # files with this extension:
+ *.pl gitlab-language=prolog
+ ```
-The paths here are Git's built-in [`.gitattributes` interface](https://git-scm.com/docs/gitattributes). So, if you were to invent a file format called a `Nicefile` at the root of your project that used Ruby syntax, all you need is:
+1. Commit, push, and merge your changes into your default branch.
-``` conf
-/Nicefile gitlab-language=ruby
-```
+After the changes merge into your [default branch](repository/branches/default.md),
+all `*.pl` files in your project are highlighted in your preferred language.

If you've accidentally started the import process with the wrong account, follow these steps:

1. Sign out of the Bitbucket account. Follow the procedure linked from the previous step.

+# Harbor container registry integration **(FREE)**
+
+Use Harbor as the container registry for your GitLab project.
+
+[Harbor](https://goharbor.io/) is an open source registry that can help you manage artifacts across cloud native compute platforms, like Kubernetes and Docker.
+
+This integration can help you if you need GitLab CI/CD and a container image repository.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+In the Harbor instance, ensure that:
+
+- The project to be integrated has been created.
+- The signed-in user has permission to pull, push, and edit images in the Harbor project.
+
+## Configure GitLab
+
+GitLab supports integrating Harbor projects at the group or project level. Complete these steps in GitLab:
+
+1. On the top bar, select **Menu > Projects** and find your project.
+1. On the left sidebar, select **Settings > Integrations**.
+1. Select **Harbor**.
+1. Turn on the **Active** toggle under **Enable Integration**.
+1. Provide the Harbor configuration information:
+ - **Harbor URL**: The base URL of Harbor instance which is being linked to this GitLab project. For example, `https://harbor.example.net`.
+ - **Harbor project name**: The project name in the Harbor instance. For example, `testproject`.
+ - **Username**: Your username in the Harbor instance, which should meet the requirements in [prerequisites](#prerequisites).
+ - **Password**: Password of your username.
+
+1. Select **Save changes**.
+
+After the Harbor integration is activated:
+
+- The global variables `$HARBOR_USER`, `$HARBOR_PASSWORD`, `$HARBOR_URL`, and `$HARBOR_PROJECT` are created for CI/CD use.
+- The project-level integration settings override the group-level integration settings.
+
+## Secure your requests to the Harbor APIs
+
+For each API request through the Harbor integration, the credentials for your connection to the Harbor API use
+the `username:password` combination. The following are suggestions for safe use:
+
+- Use TLS on the Harbor APIs you connect to.
+- Follow the principle of least privilege (for access on Harbor) with your credentials.
+- Have a rotation policy on your credentials.

+Filtering by scoped labels not available on the [issues or merge requests dashboard pages](../search/index.md#search-issues-and-merge-requests).
+
+### Scoped labels examples
+
+**Example 1.** Updating issue priority:
+
+1. You decide that an issue is of low priority, and assign it the `priority::low` label.
+1. After more review, you realize the issue's priority is higher increased, and you assign it the
+ `priority::high` label.
+1. Because an issue shouldn't have two priority labels at the same time, GitLab removes the
+ `priority::low` label.
+
+**Example 2.** You want a custom field in issues to track the operating system platform
+that your features target, where each issue should only target one platform.
+
+You create three labels:
+
+- `platform::iOS`
+- `platform::Android`
+- `platform::Linux`
+
+If you assign any of these labels to an issue automatically removes any other existing label that
+starts with `platform::`.
+
+**Example 3.** You can use scoped labels to represent the workflow states of your teams.
-### Workflows with scoped labels
+Suppose you have the following labels:
-Suppose you wanted a custom field in issues to track the operating system platform
-that your features target, where each issue should only target one platform. You
-would then create three labels `platform::iOS`, `platform::Android`, `platform::Linux`.
-Applying any one of these labels on a given issue would automatically remove any other
-existing label that starts with `platform::`.
+- `workflow::development`
+- `workflow::review`
+- `workflow::deployed`
-The same pattern could be applied to represent the workflow states of your teams.
-Suppose you have the labels `workflow::development`, `workflow::review`, and
-`workflow::deployed`. If an issue already has the label `workflow::development`
-applied, and a developer wanted to advance the issue to `workflow::review`, they
-would simply apply that label, and the `workflow::development` label would
-automatically be removed. This behavior already exists when you move issues
-across label lists in an [issue board](issue_board.md#create-workflows), but
-now, team members who may not be working in an issue board directly would still
-be able to advance workflow states consistently in issues themselves.
+If an issue already has the label `workflow::development` and a developer wants to show that the
+issue is now under review, they assign the `workflow::review`, and the `workflow::development` label
+is removed.
-This functionality is demonstrated in a video regarding
-[using scoped labels for custom fields and workflows](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4BCBby6du3c).
+The same happens when you move issues across label lists in an
+[issue board](issue_board.md#create-workflows). With scoped labels, team members not working in an
+issue board can also advance workflow states consistently in issues themselves.
-### Scoped labels with nested scopes
+For a video explanation, see:
+
+<div class="video-fallback">

+</figure>
+
+### Nested scopes
You can create a label with a nested scope by using multiple double colons `::` when creating
it. In this case, everything before the last `::` is the scope.
-For example, `workflow::backend::review` and `workflow::backend::development` are valid
-scoped labels, but they **can't** exist on the same issue at the same time, as they
-both share the same scope, `workflow::backend`.
+For example, if your project has these labels:
-Additionally, `workflow::backend::review` and `workflow::frontend::review` are valid
-scoped labels, and they **can** exist on the same issue at the same time, as they
-both have different scopes, `workflow::frontend` and `workflow::backend`.
+- `workflow::backend::review`
+- `workflow::backend::development`
+- `workflow::frontend::review`
-## Subscribing to labels
+An issue **can't** have both `workflow::backend::review` and `workflow::backend::development`
+labels at the same time, because they both share the same scope: `workflow::backend`.
-From the project label list page and the group label list page, you can click **Subscribe**
-to the right of any label to enable [notifications](../profile/notifications.md) for that
-label. You are notified whenever the label is assigned to an epic,
-issue, or merge request.
+On the other hand, an issue **can** have both `workflow::backend::review` and `workflow::frontend::review`
+labels at the same time, because they both have different scopes: `workflow::frontend` and `workflow::backend`.

# Signing commits with GPG **(FREE)**
-You can use a GPG key to sign Git commits made in a GitLab repository. Signed
-commits are labeled **Verified** if the identity of the committer can be
-verified. To verify the identity of a committer, GitLab requires their public
-GPG key.
+You can sign the commits you make in a GitLab repository with a
+GPG ([GNU Privacy Guard](https://gnupg.org/)) key. When you add a cryptographic
+signature to your commit, you provide extra assurance that a commit
+originated from you, rather than an impersonator. If GitLab can verify a commit
+author's identity with a public GPG key, the commit is marked **Verified** in the
+GitLab UI. You can then configure [push rules](../push_rules.md#enabling-push-rules)
+for your project to reject individual commits not signed with GPG, or reject all
+commits from unverified users.
NOTE:
-The term GPG is used for all OpenPGP/PGP/GPG related material and
+GitLab uses the term GPG for all OpenPGP, PGP, and GPG-related material and
implementations.
-To view a user's public GPG key, you can:
-
-- Go to `https://gitlab.example.com/<username>.gpg`.
-- Select **View public GPG keys** (**{key}**) in the top right of the user's profile.
-
-GPG verified tags are not supported yet.
-
-See the [further reading](#further-reading) section for more details on GPG.
-
-## How GitLab handles GPG
-
-GitLab uses its own keyring to verify the GPG signature. It does not access any
-public key server.
-
-For a commit to be verified by GitLab:
+For GitLab to consider a commit verified:
- The committer must have a GPG public/private key pair.
-- The committer's public key must have been uploaded to their GitLab
- account.
-- One of the emails in the GPG key must match a **verified** email address
- used by the committer in GitLab. This address will be part of the public key.
- If you want to keep this address private, use the automatically generated
+- The committer's public key must be uploaded to their GitLab account.
+- One of the email addresses in the GPG public key must match a **verified** email address
+ used by the committer in GitLab. To keep this address private, use the automatically generated
[private commit email address](../../../profile/index.md#use-an-automatically-generated-private-commit-email)
GitLab provides in your profile.
- The committer's email address must match the verified email address from the
GPG key.
-## Generating a GPG key
-
-If you don't already have a GPG key, the following steps can help you get
-started:
-
-1. [Install GPG](https://www.gnupg.org/download/index.html) for your operating system.
- If your operating system has `gpg2` installed, replace `gpg` with `gpg2` in
- the following commands.
-1. Generate the private/public key pair with the command appropriate for your version
- of `gpg`. This command spawns a series of questions:
-
- ```shell
- # Use this command for the default version of gpg, including
- # Gpg4win on Windows, and most macOS versions:
- gpg --gen-key
+GitLab uses its own keyring to verify the GPG signature. It does not access any
+public key server.
- # Use this command for versions of GPG later than 2.1.17:
- gpg --full-gen-key
- ```
+GPG verified tags are not supported.
-1. The first question is which algorithm can be used. Select the kind you want
- or press <kbd>Enter</kbd> to choose the default (RSA and RSA):
+For more details about GPG, refer to the [related topics list](#related-topics).
- ```plaintext
- Please select what kind of key you want:
- (1) RSA and RSA (default)
- (2) DSA and Elgamal
- (3) DSA (sign only)
- (4) RSA (sign only)
- Your selection? 1
- ```
+## View a user's public GPG key
-1. The next question is key length. We recommend you choose `4096`:
+To view a user's public GPG key, you can either:
- ```plaintext
- RSA keys may be between 1024 and 4096 bits long.
- What keysize do you want? (2048) 4096
- Requested keysize is 4096 bits
- ```
+- Go to `https://gitlab.example.com/<USERNAME>.gpg`. GitLab displays the GPG key,
+ if the user has configured one, or a blank page for users without a configured GPG key.
+- Go to the user's profile (such as `https://gitlab.example.com/<USERNAME>`). In the top right
+ of the user's profile, select **View public GPG keys** (**{key}**).
-1. Specify the validity period of your key. This is something
- subjective, and you can use the default value, which is to never expire:
+## Configure commit signing
- ```plaintext
