# Integrate security tools with GitLab

# Integrate security tools with GitLab {#ariaid-title1}

Release version: Australia  
Updated March 12, 2026  
![](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/portal-asset/ico-clock) 3 minutes to read  
Configure security tool for GitLab which is not supported in the base system.

## Before you begin

Role required: sn_devops.admin

## Procedure

1. Navigate to DevOps \> Integrations \> Tool Integrations and open the GitLab orchestration tool integration record.
2. Navigate to the Tool Integration Capability Mappings related list.
3. Select New, and enter the following values in the form fields.  
   {#configure-security-tool-for-gitlab__simpletable_pcl_x3f_cyb__entry__2}

   | Field | Value |
   |-|-|
   | Tool integration | GitLab |
   | Tool type capability | Security |
   [ ]

   {#configure-security-tool-for-gitlab__simpletable_pcl_x3f_cyb}
4. Select Submit.
5. Navigate to the Integration Capabilities related list, and select New.
6. Enter the following values in the form fields.  
   {#configure-security-tool-for-gitlab__simpletable_lsy_fjf_cyb__entry__2}

   | Field | Value |
   |-|-|
   | Tool integration | GitLab |
   | Capability mapping | Capability mapping record created in step 4. |
   | Action | Notification Note: Do not edit tool action records. |
   | Active | Selected |
   | Timeout (ms) | Timeout for the corresponding subflow. If execution of the subflow exceeds this value, a timeout exception occurs. Value is in milliseconds (ms). Default is 45,000 (45 seconds). |
   | Subflow name | sn_devops_vul_ints.devops_security_notification |
   | Domain | global |
   [ ]

   {#configure-security-tool-for-gitlab__simpletable_lsy_fjf_cyb}  
   Note:  
   Deactivate the BR Seeded tool integrations not editable business rule to integrate security tools with GitLab.
7. Modify the sn_devops_ints.DevOpsGitLabIntegrationHandler script include by navigating to System definitions \> Script include, and searching for the DevOpsGitLabIntegrationHandler script.  
   1. Modify the handleEvent method to process the security scan results from the GitLab pipeline. Ensure that your security stage name in your GitLab pipeline is same as the name you update in the VERACODE_STAGE_NAME, CMARX_ONE_STAGE_NAME, or CMARX_SAST_STAGE_NAME variable in the handleEvent method. Replace the handleEvent method code with the following code snippet.

           handleEvent: function(eventGr) {
              try {
                  var renameHandler = new sn_devops.DevOpsPipelineRenameHandler(this.refTable, this.appContext, this.relatedRecord);
                  renameHandler.handlePipelineRename(eventGr);
                  var payload = JSON.parse(eventGr.getValue("original_payload"));
                  this._logger.debug("typeof payload >>" + typeof payload);
                  if (!gs.nil(payload) && typeof payload === 'object') {
                      var status = this.getTaskExecutionStatus(payload);
                      this._logger.debug("Task Execution status -> " + status);
                      if (gs.nil(status))
                          this.updateInboundEvent(eventGr, {
                              processing_details: gs.getMessage('Task execution status [{0}] is not handled', payload.build_status),
                              state: sn_devops.DevOpsCommonConstants.INBOUND_EVENT_STATE_IGNORED
                          });
                      else {
                          // create fake start event for cancelled job
                          if (status == 'cancelled') {
                              this.createFakeEvent(eventGr, payload, 'running');
                          }
                          var normalizedObject = {};
                          normalizedObject.taskExecution = this.getTaskExecutionObject(eventGr, payload, status);
                          normalizedObject.orchestrationTask = this.getOrchestrationTaskObject(normalizedObject.taskExecution, payload);
                          normalizedObject.callback = this.getCallbackObject(normalizedObject.taskExecution, payload);
                          var devopsUtil = new sn_devops.DevOpsUtil(this.refTable, this.appContext, this.relatedRecord);
                          normalizedObject = devopsUtil.schemaValidationForTransformedPayload(normalizedObject);
                          var VERACODE_STAGE_NAME = 'SN_VERACODE';
                          var CMARX_ONE_STAGE_NAME = 'SN_CMARX_ONE_STAGE_NAME';
                          var CMARX_SAST_STAGE_NAME = 'SN_CMARX_SAST_STAGE_NAME';
                          if (!gs.nil(payload.build_stage) && 
                              (   
                                  payload.build_stage == VERACODE_STAGE_NAME ||
                                  payload.build_stage == CMARX_ONE_STAGE_NAME ||
                                  payload.build_stage == CMARX_SAST_STAGE_NAME 
                              )
                              && this.isCompleted(normalizedObject.taskExecution)) {
                              var queryParams = sn_devops.DevOpsQueryParamsHelper.convertToSingular(JSON.parse(eventGr.getValue('query_params')));
                              if (gs.nil(normalizedObject.taskExecution.securityScan)) {
                                  normalizedObject.taskExecution.securityScan = {
                                      securityScanSummaryCount: 0
                                  };
                              }
                              normalizedObject.taskExecution.securityScan.securityScanSummaryCount += 1;
                          }
                          this._logger.debug("Normalized Object: " + JSON.stringify(normalizedObject));
                          return JSON.stringify(normalizedObject);
                      }
                  } else
                      this.updateInboundEvent(eventGr, {
                          processing_details: gs.getMessage('Payload is missing or invalid'),
                          state: sn_devops.DevOpsCommonConstants.INBOUND_EVENT_STATE_ERROR
                      });
              } catch (error) {
                  throw sn_devops.DevOpsErrorHelper.createDevOpsScriptIncludeError(error, sn_devops_ints.DevOpsIntegrationsCommonMessages.GITLAB_INBOUND_EVENT_PROCESS_ISSUE, "DevOpsGitLabIntegrationHandler.handleEvent", "handleEvent");
              }
          },

      In the following examples the GitLab pipeline shows that the security stage name is same as the VERACODE_STAGE_NAME, CMARX_ONE_STAGE_NAME, or CMARX_SAST_STAGE_NAME variables respectively in
      the handleEvent method.  
      VERACODE_STAGE_NAME is for Veracode.

   2. Add the getPipelineWithSecurityEventPayload method to the DevOpsGitLabIntegrationHandler script.

          getPipelineWithSecurityEventPayload: function(payload) {

                  gr.addEncodedQuery("execution_url=" + payload.pipelineInfo.taskExecutionUrl);
                  gr.query();
                  var task = null;
                  if (gr.next()) {
                      task = gr;
                  }
                  if (gs.nil(task) || gs.nil(task.orchestration_task) || gs.nil(task.orchestration_task.step)) {
                      throw "Pipeline Info not found";
                  }
                  var step = task.orchestration_task.step.getRefRecord();
                  var pipelineDAO = new sn_devops.DevOpsPipelineDAO();
                  var query = 'sys_id=' + step.pipeline;
                  var pipeline = pipelineDAO.getLimitedRecordsByEncodedQuery(query);
                  return pipeline;
              },
