What is a GitLab instance URL, and how can I get it?

Tags:

gitlab

I have tried searching for it everywhere, but I can’t find anything.

It would be really awesome if someone could define it straight out of the box.

I don’t know what an instance of GitLab URL is. I’m asking if someone could clarify what it is, and where can I get it. I am currently trying to add it in Visual Studio Code extension GitLab Workflow. The extension is asking for my GitLab instance URL, and I don’t know where to get it.

Open your GitLab account or repository online (any site will do, just make sure your logged in). Then checkout the URL. The domain together with the TLD will be your hostname.

The instance URL of any GitLab install is basically the link to the GitLab you're trying to connect to.

For example, if your project is hosted on gitlab.example.com/yourname/yourproject then for the instance URL enter https://gitlab.example.com.

Another example, if your project is hosted on gitlab.com/username/project then the instance URL is https://gitlab.com. Though note that in the VS Code extension specifically, gitlab.com is the default so you can leave it blank in this case.
