# GitLab integrations
GitLab can be integrated with external services for enhanced functionality.
## Issue trackers
You can use an [external issue tracker](external-issue-tracker.md) at the same time as the GitLab issue tracker, or use only the external issue tracker.
GitLab can be integrated with the following external issue trackers:
- Jira
- Redmine
- Bugzilla
- YouTrack
## Authentication sources
GitLab can be configured to authenticate access requests with the following authentication sources:
- Enable the [Auth0 OmniAuth](auth0.md) provider.
- Enable sign in with [Bitbucket](bitbucket.md) accounts.
- Configure GitLab to sign in using [CAS](cas.md).
- Integrate with [Kerberos](kerberos.md).
- Enable sign in via [LDAP](ldap.md).
- Enable [OAuth2 provider](oauth_provider.md) application creation.
- Use [OmniAuth](omniauth.md) to enable sign in via Twitter, GitHub, GitLab.com, Google,
Bitbucket, Facebook, Shibboleth, SAML, Crowd, Azure or Authentiq ID.
- Use GitLab as an [OpenID Connect](openid_connect_provider.md) identity provider.
- Authenticate to [Vault](vault.md) through GitLab OpenID Connect.
- Configure GitLab as a [SAML](saml.md) 2.0 Service Provider.
## Security enhancements
GitLab can be integrated with the following external services to enhance security:
- [Akismet](akismet.md) helps reduce spam.
- Google [reCAPTCHA](recaptcha.md) helps verify new users.
GitLab also provides features to improve the security of your own application. For more details see [GitLab Secure](../user/application_security/index.md).
## Continuous integration
GitLab can be integrated with the following external service for continuous integration:
- [Jenkins](jenkins.md) CI. **(STARTER)**
## Feature enhancements
GitLab can be integrated with the following enhancements:
- Add GitLab actions to [Gmail actions buttons](gmail_action_buttons_for_gitlab.md).
- Configure [PlantUML](../administration/integration/plantuml.md) to use diagrams in AsciiDoc documents.
- Attach merge requests to [Trello](trello_power_up.md) cards.
- Enable integrated code intelligence powered by [Sourcegraph](sourcegraph.md).
- Add [Elasticsearch](elasticsearch.md) for [Advanced Global Search](../user/search/advanced_global_search.md),
[Advanced System Search](../user/search/advanced_search_syntax.md), and faster searching.
## Integrations
Integration with services such as Campfire, Flowdock, HipChat, Pivotal Tracker, and Slack are available as [Integrations](../user/project/integrations/overview.md).
## Troubleshooting
### SSL certificate errors
When trying to integrate GitLab with services that are using self-signed certificates, it is very likely that SSL certificate errors will occur in different parts of the application, most likely Sidekiq.
There are two approaches you can take to solve this:
1. Add the root certificate to the trusted chain of the OS.
1. If using Omnibus, you can add the certificate to GitLab's trusted certificates.
**OS main trusted chain**
This [resource](https://manuals.gfi.com/en/kerio/connect/content/server-configuration/ssl-certificates/adding-trusted-root-certificates-to-the-server-1605.html)
has all the information you need to add a certificate to the main trusted chain.
This [answer](https://superuser.com/questions/437330/how-do-you-add-a-certificate-authority-ca-to-ubuntu)
at Super User also has relevant information.
**Omnibus Trusted Chain**
[Install the self signed certificate or custom certificate authorities](https://docs.gitlab.com/omnibus/common_installation_problems/README.html#using-self-signed-certificate-or-custom-certificate-authorities)
in to Omnibus GitLab.
It is enough to concatenate the certificate to the main trusted certificate
however it may be overwritten during upgrades:
```shell
cat jira.pem >> /opt/gitlab/embedded/ssl/certs/cacert.pem
```
After that restart GitLab with:
```shell
sudo gitlab-ctl restart
```
