GitLab Instance (api_url)
- 
          Environment variable:
          
TAP_GITLAB_API_URL - 
          Default Value: 
https://gitlab.com 
GitLab API/instance URL. When an API path is omitted, /api/v4/ is assumed.
Access Token (private_token)
- 
          Environment variable:
          
TAP_GITLAB_PRIVATE_TOKEN 
GitLab personal access token or other API token.
Groups (groups)
- 
          Environment variable:
          
TAP_GITLAB_GROUPS 
Space-separated names of groups to extract data from. Leave empty and provide a project name if you'd like to pull data from a project in a personal user namespace.
Project (projects)
- 
          Environment variable:
          
TAP_GITLAB_PROJECTS 
Space-separated namespace/project paths of projects to extract data from. Leave empty and provide a group name to extract data from all group projects.
 (ultimate_license)
- 
          Environment variable:
          
TAP_GITLAB_ULTIMATE_LICENSE - 
          Default Value: 
false 
Enable to pull in extra data (like Epics, Epic Issues and other entities) only available to GitLab Ultimate and GitLab.com Gold accounts.
 (fetch_merge_request_commits)
- 
          Environment variable:
          
TAP_GITLAB_FETCH_MERGE_REQUEST_COMMITS - 
          Default Value: 
false 
For each Merge Request, also fetch the MR's commits and create the join table merge_request_commits with the Merge Request and related Commit IDs. This can slow down extraction considerably because of the many API calls required.
 (fetch_pipelines_extended)
- 
          Environment variable:
          
TAP_GITLAB_FETCH_PIPELINES_EXTENDED - 
          Default Value: 
false 
For every Pipeline, also fetch extended details of each of these pipelines. This can slow down extraction considerably because of the many API calls required.
 (start_date)
- 
          Environment variable:
          
TAP_GITLAB_START_DATE 
Determines how much historical data will be extracted. Please be aware that the larger the time period and amount of data, the longer the initial extraction can be expected to take.
