GitLab OAuth for Batch Changes
A more secure credentials mechanism for Batch Changes in GitLab.
Sourcegraph now supports OAuth credentials for GitLab in Batch Changes. Previously, only API keys were supported.
Once a Sourcegraph administrator has set up a GitLab app for their instance, and configured this as an authentication provider in Sourcegraph, users can authenticate through this GitLab app in their Batch Change credential settings.
You can migrate from previous API keys to OAuth for Gitlab by deleting the credential from your Batch Change credentials setting, and then create a new credential where you select OAuth.
Support for OAuth with GitHub is already available through GitHub apps. Let us know if you would like to see other code hosts support OAuth for Batch Changes.
