🚧 This page is a work-in-progress. Some information contained within may be inaccurate or incomplete.

This page documents how GitLab's work items are used, and other useful information to point you to where you need to go.

Introduction

GitLab's work items main purpose is for technical discussions, bug reports and feature requests. But it is also used to create topics for discussions, like where the project is heading, new blog posts, infrastructure, wiki suggestions etc. For more casual interaction methods, see Community.

Work items created on GitLab exist in projects (instead of just one big group), but can optionally be viewed all at once by clicking on work items on the main group page.[1]
