# GitLab

> Connect your GitLab data so your Agents can search and reference it through Knowledge Grounding

Connect your GitLab instance so your Agents can access repositories, merge requests, and documentation.

<Info>
  Once connected, your Agents can search repositories, code files, merge requests, and wikis from GitLab through [Knowledge Grounding](/overview/platform/knowledge-grounding). You control which Connectors are active for each conversation: toggle GitLab on or off from the Knowledge Grounding filter in the chat input bar.

## What your Agents can access

Once connected, your Agents have access to repositories, code files, merge requests, and wikis from GitLab. This content becomes searchable through Knowledge Grounding and is referenced when relevant to your requests.

Your GitLab data works alongside your other connected tools and [Vault documents](/overview/platform/vaults) to give your Agents a comprehensive view of your organization's information.
