# Install Qodo on GitLab Cloud - Multi-tenant
> Multi-tenant GitLab Cloud install guide for Qodo automated code review.
Using GitLab Server? The installation flow is the same as Qodo single-tenant. See [Qodo single-tenant](/install-and-configure/install/gitlab/qodo-single-tenant).
Not sure which deployment model you need? See [Install Qodo in your Git provider](/install-and-configure/install) for a full comparison, or [check your deployment type](/deployment-models#check-your-deployment-type).
Qodo works directly with GitLab Cloud, using a dedicated GitLab account to post code review comments on merge requests. It relies on GitLab OAuth and native merge request workflows to deliver automated insights.
You can configure Qodo for selected repositories or across your entire GitLab group. Configuration typically takes around 5 minutes.
Once installed, Qodo automatically processes merge requests and delivers actionable insights, such as code reviews, descriptions, and improvement suggestions, directly within your GitLab workflow.
## Prerequisites
Before you begin, ensure you have:
* Access to your Qodo portal.
* System administrator access to your GitLab group.
* A dedicated email address to use as a Qodo GitLab account (for example, `qodo@yourcompany.com`). The account is created during the installation wizard.
## Access the GitLab integration
Log in to your [Qodo portal](https://app.qodo.ai/signin).
From the left-hand navigation menu, select **Integrations**.
Select the **SaaS** tab, locate the **GitLab** card, and click **Add installation** to launch the installation wizard.
## Install Qodo on GitLab Cloud
Create a dedicated Qodo email address in your company domain (for example, `qodo@yourcompany.com`) to use as the Qodo GitLab account. You may need to contact your IT team to provision the user account.
Click **Next**.
Using the email you just created, add Qodo as a user in your GitLab workspace.
* Click **Download Qodo logo for avatar** and save it for use in sub-step 3.
Complete the following steps in GitLab:
In your GitLab group, go to **Manage → Members** and click **Invite members**. In the dialog, enter the Qodo email address, set the role to `Maintainer`, and click **Invite**.
The invited user receives an email from GitLab. Accept the invitation and complete the account setup.
The GitLab first name must be set as `Qodo`.
In the Qodo account's GitLab profile settings, go to **Edit Profile** and upload the Qodo logo as the public avatar.
Back in the wizard, select the **Confirm GitLab Qodo account creation** checkbox, then click **Next**.
Enter your **GitLab Organization URL** (for example, `https://gitlab.com/yourgroup`) and click **Install Qodo**. You are redirected to GitLab to authorize access.
Review the requested permissions and click **Authorize Qodo-code-review**. You are redirected back to the wizard automatically.
Select the repositories where you want to enable Qodo. Use the search bar to find specific repositories, or browse the group tree.
Click **Setup** to continue.
Qodo automatically verifies the connection to your selected repositories. Once verification is complete, a confirmation is displayed.
* Click **Next** to proceed.
If the connection fails, click **Retry**. If it still fails, contact your Qodo Account Manager.
The confirmation screen shows the number of connected repositories and confirms that AI code review, auto rule generation, and codebase context are active.
* Click **Done**.
Qodo is now active on the selected repositories. To add repositories, return to this wizard at any time and run a new installation with the updated scope. Repositories that already have Qodo installed are not available for selection. To reduce scope, remove the installation and create a new one.
## Verify the installation
Open a new merge request in one of the connected repositories and confirm Qodo is triggered automatically.
Add a comment using one of the supported commands:
* `/agentic_describe`
* `/agentic_review`
Qodo should respond with a review or MR summary directly on the merge request.
## Next steps
