## What it is
A Jenkins plugin that integrates GitLab with Jenkins CI. It triggers Jenkins builds from GitLab webhooks (pushes, merge requests, tags) and reports build status back to GitLab.

## Use cases
- trigger Jenkins builds when code is pushed to GitLab
- run Jenkins builds on GitLab merge requests
- report Jenkins build status back to GitLab
- accept a GitLab merge request automatically after a successful build
- cancel pending or running Jenkins builds when a merge request is updated
- build only specific branches or when tags are pushed
- configure multibranch pipeline jobs with GitLab via Job DSL

## When to choose
- you use Jenkins as your CI server and GitLab as your Git hosting
- you need webhook-driven build triggers and build status notifications between GitLab and Jenkins
- you want merge request integration features like auto-accept or build cancellation

## When to avoid
- you use GitLab CI instead of Jenkins for your pipelines
- you use GitHub or another Git host rather than GitLab
- your GitLab version is older than the N-2 supported major release

## Facets
- artifact type: plugin
- maturity: active
- function: ci-cd, webhook, auth, workflow-automation
- domain: developer-tools, version-control
