SSO and WebHook Integration Guide for GitLab and Jenkins
This guide details step‑by‑step configurations for integrating Single Sign‑On (SSO) and WebHook between GitLab and Jenkins, covering GitLab application setup, Jenkins backup and proxy adjustments, plugin installation, token generation, and testing the connection to ensure successful builds.
1. SSO Integration
1.1 GitLab configuration
Navigate to Application Management → Create Application → Configure the redirect URL.
1.2 Jenkins configuration
Before configuring, back up the config.xml file.
If Jenkins is behind a proxy, modify the upstream name because it is automatically used to fill the redirect URL.
2. WebHook Integration
2.1 Jenkins configuration
Install the GitLab hook plugin.
Select a project, and in the build trigger module choose to trigger via GitLab, then generate a token.
2.2 GitLab configuration
Go to Project → Project Settings → Integrations.
Save the settings and test the connection.
When the test returns a success message, you can verify that the Jenkins job is building.
