Create an Issue for Your Contribution

The eLxr projects use GitLab issues to collaborate on ideas, solve problems, and plan work. Issues are always associated with a specific project. Users can create an issue in many ways in GitLab:

• From a project

• From a group

• From another issue or incident

• From an issue board

• By sending an email

• Using a URL with prefilled values

• Using Service Desk

Before You Begin

You must have a GitLab account to create an issue. For details, see GitLab Account Setup.

Procedure

Use the following steps to create an issue from a project:

1. On the left sidebar, select Search or go to and find your project.

   • On the left sidebar, select Plan > Issues, and then, in the upper-right corner, select New issue.

   • On the left sidebar, at the top, select the plus sign (+) and then, under In this project, select New issue.

3. Complete the fields.

4. Select Create issue. The newly created issue opens.
