Required Permissions For GitLab Users And Token

Account

The permissions the app needs to log into your account:

• Access the authenticated user's API GitProtect needs read/write access to the API, including all groups and projects, the container registry, and the package registry.

Token/password

The list below contains only the minimum permissions that allow you to register the GitProtect application in your account and access the repositories.

• read_api,

• read_repository

You can generate a Personal Access Token by going to the access tokens tab in your GitLab account.

With minimal privileges, some metadata may not be included during the backup process (eg issues). Choose the list of necessary permissions, depending on what data you need to protect. Remember that if you grant only read permissions, it will be possible to perform a backup, but to restore them, you will have to generate a new token/password with write permissions.
