GitLab CI

xyva.ai connects to the GitLab API to give you a pipeline dashboard, job-level logs, artifact access, and merge request management without leaving the studio.

Access Token Setup

1. In GitLab, go to Settings > Access Tokens (project or personal scope).
2. Create a token with scopes: api, read_repository, write_repository.
3. In xyva, open Settings > Integrations > GitLab and enter:

Field	Example
GitLab URL	https://gitlab.example.com
Access Token	glpat-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Project ID	42

WARNING

Use a project access token in CI environments to avoid leaking personal credentials. Rotate tokens every 90 days.

Pipeline Dashboard

The dashboard lists the most recent pipeline runs for the configured project, including:

• Status -- passed, failed, running, pending, cancelled
• Branch / Tag -- the ref that triggered the pipeline
• Duration -- wall-clock time from start to finish
• Triggered by -- user or schedule that initiated the run

Click any pipeline row to expand its stage and job breakdown.

Job Logs & Artifacts

Each job entry provides:

1. Live log stream -- tails the job output while it runs.
2. Full log download -- available once the job finishes.
3. Artifact browser -- lists downloadable artifacts (JUnit XML, screenshots, traces).

TIP

xyva can parse JUnit XML artifacts and display results inline alongside your local Runner results, giving you a unified view of local and CI test outcomes.

Merge Requests

The MR panel shows open merge requests for the project. For each MR you can review:

• Title, author, and assignee
• Pipeline status of the source branch
• Diff stat (files changed, additions, deletions)

Triggering Pipelines

You can trigger a new pipeline run directly from xyva:

Branch:    main
Variables: SUITE=smoke, HEADLESS=true

Select the target branch, add optional CI variables, and click Run Pipeline. The dashboard refreshes automatically when the pipeline starts.
