Accepting new permissions for the GitLab OpsLevel application

As part of new feature rollouts at OpsLevel, we may occasionally request new permissions for the OpsLevel GitLab application.

You will be notified by OpsLevel when there is an update to the OpsLevel GitLab application available. At this time, you will need to uninstall and then reinstall the GitLab integration from within the OpsLevel app for these changes to take place. You will then see a list of the updated set of permissions when reinstalling the integration.

Note: Uninstalling the GitLab integration will not result in any data loss. All services will remain intact.
