Summary
Clarifies the self-hosted GitLab OAuth setup docs to reflect the new save-time validation: the instance URL must use
https://and resolve to a public address. Previouslyhttp://was accepted; it is now rejected, and hosts resolving to private, loopback, or link-local addresses are also rejected when saving the instance. Updated English, Spanish, French, and Chinese versions of the page.Triggering code change: https://github.com/mintlify/server/pull/7501
Changes
deploy/gitlab-self-hosted.mdx: added a sentence on the GitLab instance URL step stating the https-only and public-address requirement, with what triggers rejection.es/deploy/gitlab-self-hosted.mdx,fr/deploy/gitlab-self-hosted.mdx,zh/deploy/gitlab-self-hosted.mdx: mirrored the same clarification.Note
Low Risk
Documentation-only updates aligned with server validation; no runtime or security logic changes in this repo.
Overview

Each locale’s
gitlab-self-hosted.mdxnow states that the instance URL must usehttps://and resolve to a public address, and that Mintlify rejectshttp://URLs and hosts that resolve to private, loopback, or link-local addresses when you save the instance.
