Hello, I have a self hosted n8n (1.53.2) on AWS ECS with a domain. Trying to add a gitlab, company hosted, step (trigger or any). The connexion through credentials works. I have filled the job based on this question from the forum. > [@Gitlab Trigger 404 Project Not Found. Need help](http://community.n8n.io/t/gitlab-trigger-404-project-not-found-need-help/23117): > > I’m trying to set up a Gitlab to Telegram notification workflow, but I cannot link to the Gitlab project. I’ve already set up the Gitlab Oauth2 credentials and tried entering the project namespace in the Repository Name field, but I got a GitLab Trigger: 404 Project Not Found error. I’ve set up a sample project, [Oshane Bailey / plain-html · GitLab](https://gitlab.com/b4oshany/plain-html) to test the connection and entered the information for it as seen in the screenshot below: [image] What am I doing wrong?

Hey @karim-soufi, Welcome to the community 🙌 Is `/DataCorp/devops/docker` the correct username for the owner of the repo? Normally they wouldn’t contain a `/` ---

Hey @karim-soufi, While it is the path is it the username? Have you tried URL Encoding it and seeing if that helps? ---

I think the fields arent clear to me. can you explain what’s expected ? is the owner field, my username? or the path between the domain name of the hosted gitlab and the repo slag? ---

i am also seeing this, currently i am using the cloud trial. the connection test on auth (oauth2) tells me its passing ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/n8n/original/3X/d/4/d4c6c29e1bbda9c1e8b1dd30f04033adfbee3f1c.png) ---

Hey @Glen_Dovey Is that the correct name for your repo? It may be worth trying to uri encode the name and see if that helps ---

it is not, it is a company project and i wanted to hide the identity. i have tried again with a encoded uri repo name and i got the same error ---

I will check the API to see what they expect for those cases ---

by trial and error, the owner is the path between the domain name and the repo slag. it should be encoded as Jon said. can the documentation be updated to reflect this please ? ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/n8n/original/3X/f/2/f25d2ee4cd94497da67c510180c8f9f204849f40.png) thanks Jon. ---
