# Connect Tessl to GitLab

To enable Tessl on your repositories, you will first navigate to the [Tessl Registry](https://tessl.io/registry) and login, if required.

## Enabling the Integration

* Select your workspace from the selector on the left side menu.\
  ![](/files/pdUHkPUeGfPyqqndKPad)
* Click on Integrations from the menu\
  ![](/files/pkYZPOonwKVCpyyOrzeC)

  .
* Select *Enable Integration*.

* Provide an access token with the correct [permissions](/distribute/rollout-to-your-repositories/permissions.md#gitlab-permissions) for a gitlab.com instance. \* If you are using a self hosted or customer-url for your instance, check the Use a custom instance URL box, and provide the necessary URL.<br>

  ```

## Troubleshooting

What if the option to *Add Integration* isn't available? In the following example Tessl is not enabled and the user does not have the correct [Role](/administrators/roles.md) within Tessl (manager or owner) so the interface does not provide the option to integrate GitLab. To address this, ensure you have the correct [Role](/administrators/roles.md) within Tessl or request a user with these permissions to setup the integration.
