GitLab Wrapped Generator

✨ Automatically generate your personalized GitLab Wrapped, a stunning year-in-review of your contributions, activity, and stats.

Powered by gitlab-wrapped by @michaelangelorivera.

πŸš€ How it works

  1. Forks the gitlab-wrapped project (or finds your existing fork)
  2. Configures CI/CD environment variables
  3. Triggers the GitLab pipeline
  4. Monitors until completion (polls every 2 minutes)

πŸŽ‰ Your wrapped will be available at: https://YOUR-USERNAME.gitlab.io/gitlab-wrapped


βš™οΈ Setup

  1. Create a GitLab PAT with these scopes:

    • api
    • read_repository
    • write_repository
  2. Fill out the form:

    • Your GitLab username
    • Your PAT token
    • GitLab instance URL (defaults to gitlab.com)
    • Year (defaults to 2025)
  3. Submit & relax! β˜• The workflow handles everything automatically.


πŸ’‘ Works with GitLab.com and self-hosted instances

πŸ“… Generate wrapped reports for any past year

4. Reproducing the Workflow from Scratch

  1. 1. Download the workflow JSON

    Use the JSON export at /data/workflows/12394/12394.json as the source template for this automation.

  2. 2. Import the template into n8n

    Open n8n, import the downloaded JSON, and review each node before activating the workflow.

  3. 3. Configure credentials and variables

    Replace placeholder credentials, API keys, webhook URLs, account IDs, and environment-specific values with your own settings.

  4. 4. Test with sample data

    Run the workflow manually or in a staging workspace, inspect node output, and confirm downstream systems receive the expected data.

  5. 5. Activate and monitor

    Enable the workflow only after testing, then monitor executions, errors, and rate limits during the first production runs.

5. General Notes & Resources

Review imported nodes carefully before activation. This catalog entry is intended to help you inspect the workflow structure, understand required services, and find related templates faster.

Node names, credentials, schedules, webhook paths, and external service limits may need adjustment for your workspace.
