GitLab + Foldr Integration
GitLab is the full DevOps platform with git hosting, CI, and package registries. Upload GitLab CI job artifacts to Foldr for public URLs usable outside the repo's auth boundary.
How to Connect GitLab to Foldr
Generate a Foldr API key
Sign in at foldr.space and create an API key at foldr.space/developers.
Authenticate with GitLab
Generate or locate your GitLab API credentials per GitLab's documentation.
Wire the two APIs together
Write a small script or serverless function that calls GitLab, processes the result, and POSTs to https://foldr.space/api/v1/files (or /links for short links).
Deploy + schedule
Run the script on-demand, via a cron job, or trigger it from a webhook — the Foldr REST API has no client-library lock-in.

GitLab + Foldr FAQ
How do I connect Foldr to GitLab?
You connect Foldr to GitLab via REST API. Full steps are listed above under "How to Connect". In short: create a Foldr API key, configure the REST API integration pointed at https://foldr.space/api/v1/, and map GitLab's data into Foldr's request body.
Do I need a paid Foldr plan to use GitLab with Foldr?
The Foldr free tier supports basic uploads via the API with 7-day expiry. For integration use with GitLab — higher rate limits, permanent storage, multiple API keys, and webhook subscriptions — Foldr Pro (from $5/mo) is recommended.
What Foldr features can I call from GitLab?
From GitLab you can invoke any Foldr action: uploading files (up to 2 GB each), creating short links, generating bio pages, creating hosted forms, and reading download analytics. See the Foldr API docs for the full endpoint list.
Is there an official Foldr app for GitLab?
Not a first-party app — Foldr integrates with GitLab through REST API, which is usually a better fit because it doesn't require installing an extra app. If you'd rather have a native integration, let us know at foldr.space/contact.
