BugBot setup for Self-Hosted GitLab behind a firewall

Hello,

My company would like to try BugBot on our self-hosted GitLab instance. I read the BugBot documentation Bugbot | Cursor Docs which mentions IP whitelist but I’m not sure where our IT or GitLab admin should configure that. The documentation does not mention it.

Did anyone already try that setup?

The only page mentioning IP allowlist I found in the GitLab documentation is the following one IP allowlist | GitLab but it seems to be related to specific monitoring endpoints.

Best regards,

Gary

Hey @GaryLong!

Your IT admins would be responsible for allowing inbound traffic to your on-prem GitLab instance from the BugBot IP addresses. This is typically configured at the network/firewall level rather than within GitLab itself.

That said, not all setups support this. Many organizations don’t allow inbound traffic from the public internet to their self-hosted tools.

Hi Colin,

Thank you for the details !
