Configure GitLab OAuth with ngrok

The step-by-step instructions below follow GitLab's documentation on setting up OAuth 2.0 for a web application.

Create an Application

1. Access your GitLab profile page and select Applications on the left menu.

   Note: If you want to restrict the list of users able to log in with GitLab, either create an application under one of your groups or an instance-wide application. See Additional application setup information.

2. Provide a Name for your application and enter https://idp.ngrok.com/oauth2/callback in the Redirect URI field.

   

3. In the Scopes section, select all the fields appropriate for your app and then click Save application. In this example, mark the openid, profile, and email fields.
