I don't see Gitlab explicitly listed as a supported service, but wonder if that would be supported or require google or gitlab to make the integration happen. (This is on a GL EE instance we manage).

And what about public-facing web apps developed in-house? Can we add SAML integrations that would work with this for employee access?

These are probably basic questions, but I couldn't seem to find the details on the site.

Gitlab already has several plugins for auth, for example you can use OmniAuth to have users login with an external identity provider: https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/integration/omniauth.html

No extra products needed if they're already using one of those supported providers. OpenID Connect makes things much simpler than traditional SAML unless you need all the extra enterprise provisioning features.

Ah - cool. That makes sense!
