# GitLab Issues

Aikido can connect to GitLab so that you can create issues for security findings found through Aikido. For each of the findings in the 'Feed' of Aikido, a GitLab issue can be created, and linked.

You will be able to follow along in the Feed, to whom the ticket is assigned.

### 1. Set up integration <a href="#id-1-set-up-integration" id="id-1-set-up-integration"></a>

Go to [https://app.aikido.dev/settings/integrations](https://app.aikido.dev/settings/integrations) and scroll down to the 'Task trackers' section.

### 2. Create a GitLab issue for a finding, inside Aikido <a href="#id-2-create-a-gitlab-issue-for-a-finding-inside-aikido" id="id-2-create-a-gitlab-issue-for-a-finding-inside-aikido"></a>

Go to the [Feed](https://app.aikido.dev/queue), and go to the security finding of choice. In the column 'Assignee', you will find the ability to assign a GitLab Issue to someone.

When creating the Issue Task, this will be made clear in the UI of Aikido
