gitlab.com (SaaS) customisation inside namespace
Release notes
Problem to solve
As a user of gitlab.com, I would like the ability to customise the appearance of my namespace, in much the same way as I could do on a self-hosted instance.
This could include:
- Changing/updating the header bar logo (even if there was some tag left behind saying this was gitlab.com somehow)
- Adding a header and/or footer bar with a customisable message (and colours)
- Ability to customise the text on the 'pre' SAML SSO page.
- Displaying a T&C page to users upon first sign in. (This could be instead of the 404 page that new users - with
Minimal Accessrights to our namespace are shown). - Customisation of any text (and graphics) in gitlab notification emails sent regarding items under the namespace.
Intended users
- Cameron (Compliance Manager)
- Sidney (Systems Administrator)
- Sam (Security Analyst)
- Alex (Security Operations Engineer)
- Eddie (Content Editor)
User experience goal
This would go a long way to making the SaaS platform feel a bit more integrated to our organisation.
Proposal
Further details
Permissions and Security
-
Add expected impact to members with no access (0)
Users arriving at the SAML SSO login page would be greeted with a slightly more personalised text, before clicking through to the corporate login portal.
-
Add expected impact to members with minimal access (5)
Users successfully authenticating to the SAML SSO login, would be greeted with an internal T&C page and/or links to docs, rather than a 404 page.
-
Add expected impact to Owner (50) members
Namespace owners would be able to configure these items through the namespace settings pane.
