Redmine Service

To enable the Redmine integration in a project, navigate to the Integrations page, click the Redmine service, and fill in the required details on the page as described in the table below.

Field Description
description A name for the issue tracker (to differentiate between instances, for example)
project_url The URL to the project in Redmine which is being linked to this GitLab project
issues_url The URL to the issue in Redmine project that is linked to this GitLab project. Note that the issues_url requires :id in the URL. This ID is used by GitLab as a placeholder to replace the issue number.
new_issue_url This is the URL to create a new issue in Redmine for the project linked to this GitLab project

Once you have configured and enabled Redmine:

  • the Issues link on the GitLab project pages takes you to the appropriate Redmine issue index
  • clicking New issue on the project dashboard creates a new Redmine issue

As an example, below is a configuration for a project named gitlab-ci.

Referencing issues in Redmine

Issues in Redmine can be referenced in two alternative ways:

  1. #<ID> where <ID> is a number (example #143)
  2. <PROJECT>-<ID> where <PROJECT> starts with a capital letter which is then followed by capital letters, numbers or underscores, and <ID> is a number (example API_32-143).

We suggest using the longer format if you have both internal and external issue trackers enabled. If you use the shorter format and an issue with the same ID exists in the internal issue tracker the internal issue will be linked.

Please note that <PROJECT> part is ignored and links always point to the address specified in issues_url.
