Frequently Asked Questions about GitLab + Productboard integrations
New to automation with Zapier? You're not alone. Here are some answers to common questions about how Zapier works with GitLab and Productboard
What is required to set up an integration between GitLab and Productboard?
To set up an integration between GitLab and Productboard, you'll need accounts in both platforms with the necessary project access rights. We recommend having admin permissions in GitLab to establish the connection and manage webhook setups. In Productboard, ensure you have product manager access to configure feature updates based on GitLab activity.
Can I create a feedback item in Productboard when an issue is created in GitLab?
Absolutely! You can set a trigger for when a new issue is created in your GitLab repository, prompting the creation of a feedback note or feature idea directly in Productboard. Our product ensures seamless integration so that your development and product planning teams stay aligned.
How can I update the status of a feature in Productboard when a merge request is accepted in GitLab?
When a merge request is accepted in GitLab, you can automatically update the status of a related feature on your roadmap within Productboard. This keeps everyone informed about progress without manual updates, allowing for more efficient collaboration.
Is it possible to link specific commits from GitLab to ideas or features in Productboard?
Yes, you can link specific commits from your GitLab repository to corresponding ideas or features within Productboard. This connection aids traceability allowing you to see which code changes relate directly to different product concepts being developed.
What actions are taken when an issue in GitLab is labeled as 'feature'?
When an issue is labeled as 'feature' in GitLab, it can trigger an action that aligns this label with a corresponding feature idea within Productboard. This helps maintain consistency between development workstreams and strategic product initiatives and reduces manual effort required for synchronization.
Can changes made on the planned roadmaps within Productboard be reflected back into our GitLab workflow?
Roadmap changes made in Productboard might trigger notifications or comments within relevant projects on GitLab, ensuring developers are aware of any shifts without leaving their coding environment. Directly syncing roadmap changes into workflows depends on additional custom triggers we provide guidance for setting up.
How often are data synchronized between our systems when using this integration?
The frequency of data synchronization varies based on the triggers set for each action; typically these events execute instantly based upon real-time activities like new issues or commits. We ensure all integrative tasks are performed as promptly as possible for up-to-date data across platforms.
