Accessing GitLab

GitLab is the code management tool you'll use when working with code changes to your Silverstripe CMS website on Silverstripe Cloud.

GitLab will remain available for the foreseeable future by accessing https://gitlab.cwp.govt.nz.

Once you're there, you should be able to log in using single sign-on using your Silverstripe Cloud Public Sector credentials (formerly cwp.govt.nz).


Although Silverstripe does not support GitHub-repo and Bitbucket-repo directly, customers can still customize their own repository under BYO-Repo. To tailor it for your repository (e.g., GitHub-repo or Bitbucket-repo), follow these steps:

  • Stack Manager or authorised user(s) can locate the Deploy key on your stack's Overview page and incorporate it into your repository with "read" permissions.
  • Then, on the stack's Overview page, the Stack Manager or authorised user(s) should adjust the stack settings and update the URL with the appropriate repository information. For example:
    For GitHub: [URL, e.g., git@github.com:your-organization/your-repo.git]
    For Bitbucket: [URL, e.g., git@bitbucket.org:your-organization/your-repo.git]
