Create your Arahi AI account
Sign up at app.arahi.ai — it's free and takes 30 seconds. No credit card required. You'll land on the dashboard where you can create your first workflow.
Authenticate GitLab
Click "Add Connection" and select GitLab from the app directory. You'll be redirected to GitLab's authorization page. Grant Arahi access to your repositories, issues, and project data. You control which repos and projects the integration can access.
Authenticate Segment
Same process for Segment. Click "Add Connection," select Segment, and authorize access. Grant Arahi access to your dashboards, reports, and datasets. You select which data sources the integration can read.
Choose your trigger
Select what event starts the workflow. For this integration, popular triggers include: new commit pushed in gitlab or report generated in segment. The trigger fires automatically whenever that event happens — no manual intervention.
Configure the action
Define what happens when the trigger fires. For example: log event in segment. Map the data fields between GitLab and Segment so the right information lands in the right place.
Test and activate
Run a test to confirm data flows correctly between GitLab and Segment. Check that the fields map as expected, then toggle the workflow on. It runs 24/7 from here — Arahi handles retries, error logging, and monitoring automatically.
Why connect GitLab and Segment?

Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about connecting GitLab and Segment.
How do I connect GitLab to Segment?
Sign up for a free Arahi AI account, then click "Add Connection" to authenticate both GitLab and Segment via OAuth. Choose a workflow template — like syncing developer tools events to data analytics actions — customize the field mapping, and activate. The entire setup takes under 5 minutes.
What can I automate between GitLab and Segment?
You can automate a wide range of workflows: sync new GitLab events to Segment actions, trigger Segment updates when GitLab data changes, create Segment records from GitLab events, and build conditional workflows with filters and field mapping. Each workflow runs 24/7 with automatic retries.
Is the GitLab and Segment integration free?
Arahi AI includes 100 free actions per month on the Starter plan — enough for most small teams. If your GitLab-to-Segment workflows need more volume, paid plans start at $29/month with unlimited workflows and priority execution.
Is my GitLab data secure when connected to Segment?
Yes. Arahi uses OAuth 2.0 for authentication — we never store your GitLab or Segment passwords. All data is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest (AES-256). Your developer tools data is only accessed when a workflow runs, and you can revoke access at any time from your Arahi dashboard.
Can I sync data both ways between GitLab and Segment?
Yes. You can set up workflows that trigger from either GitLab or Segment. For example, create a workflow where GitLab events update Segment, and a separate one where Segment changes sync back to GitLab. Each direction is configured independently so you have full control.
Do I need technical skills to connect GitLab and Segment?
No coding is required. Arahi's visual workflow builder lets you configure triggers, actions, and field mapping with clicks. If you can use GitLab and Segment, you can set up the integration. Most users are running their first workflow within 10 minutes.
