FAQs
Who has access to a connected GitLab account?
GitLab accounts are connected at the user level. Only the user who connected their GitLab account can see the repos and the files they contain within zeroheight unless they are shared with the team. Other users within a team will only be able to see files that have been added into zeroheight.
Can I connect public and private repositories?
Yes. When you connect your account, you can access files from any repository you can access in your connected tool— this includes both private and public repositories from the organizations you belong to
What GitLab accounts does zeroheight support?
zeroheight supports Free, Premium, and Ultimate accounts.
What happens if I connect the repo and then I'm no longer part of the zeroheight account?
When you connect GitLab to your account, it's only connected to your personal zeroheight account. If your zeroheight account is deleted, the GitLab connection is made redundant.
What happens to my imported Gitlab content when my Gitlab access token expires?
When your GitLab token expires, your existing content will remain on your styleguides; however, you will no longer be able to sync any new updates from GitLab. To resume syncing you will need to create a new access token and disconnect and reconnect your GitLab integration using this new token in the integration settings in your zeroheight account.
