-
Navigate to the project's Settings > Integrations page.
-
Click the YouTrack service, ensure it's active, and enter the required details on the page as described in the table below.
Field Description Description Name for the issue tracker (to differentiate between instances, for example). Project url URL to the project in YouTrack which is being linked to this GitLab project.

Referencing YouTrack issues in GitLab
Issues in YouTrack can be referenced as <PROJECT>-<ID>
. <PROJECT>
must start with a letter and can then be followed by capital or lower case
letters, numbers or underscores. <ID>
is a number. An example reference is YT-101
, Api_32-143
or gl-030
.
References to <PROJECT>-<ID>
in merge requests, commits, or comments are automatically linked to the YouTrack issue URL.
