Authorising access to GitLab Self-Hosted
When creating a new GitLab data source, you'll be asked to provide the URL to your GitLab instance and your personal API token.

To authorize access to the GitLab API, you need to provide the base URL of your GitLab instance:

If you're hosting your own GitLab instance, the base URL depends on your domain configuration so you may need to consult your GitLab admin in case you're unsure (although it's ok to use a trial and error too. If you enter incorrect URL you'll just get an error message).
In both cases, you must create a personal access token and provide it to Screenful.
