Gitlab Workspace: Step-by-Step Guide

You’re encountering the error:

“You can’t create a workspace for this project – No agents available to create workspaces.”

This means your project is missing a GitLab Agent for Kubernetes, which is required for GitLab Workspaces.


✅ Step-by-Step Guide to Set Up GitLab Workspaces

📌 What Is a Workspace?

A Workspace in GitLab is a cloud-based dev environment (similar to GitHub Codespaces), but it needs:

  • A configured GitLab Agent for Kubernetes
  • A linked Kubernetes cluster

🔧 Prerequisites

  1. GitLab Premium or Ultimate
  2. A Kubernetes cluster (e.g., GKE, EKS, AKS, Minikube)
  3. Access to the GitLab project
  4. You are an Owner or Maintainer of the project

🧭 STEP 1: Create a Kubernetes Cluster (if you don’t have one)

You can use:

  • GKE: Google Kubernetes Engine
  • EKS: Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service
  • AKS: Azure Kubernetes Service
  • Minikube: Local dev cluster

🧭 STEP 2: Install GitLab Agent for Kubernetes

  1. Go to your GitLab project
  2. Navigate to:
    Infrastructure > Kubernetes clusters
    OR
    Settings > CI/CD > GitLab Agent
  3. Click Register a new agent
  4. Give your agent a name, e.g., gitlab-workspace-agent
  5. GitLab will give you a command like: kubectl apply -f https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/<PROJECT_ID>/agent_kubernetes_configuration.yaml
  6. Copy that command and run it in your Kubernetes cluster

🧭 STEP 3: Configure .gitlab/agents/<agent-name>/config.yaml

Create this file in your repo:

ci_access:
  # Allow CI/CD jobs to access the cluster
  projects:
    - id: your-group/your-project
Code language: PHP (php)

Commit this file to the repository under:

.gitlab/agents/gitlab-workspace-agent/config.yaml

🧭 STEP 4: Enable Workspaces

  1. Go to Dev > Workspaces
  2. Click New Workspace
  3. Select the correct project and the linked agent
  4. GitLab will now initialize a dev environment in your Kubernetes cluster

🧪 Troubleshooting That Exact Error

❌ “No agents available to create workspaces”

You must:

  • Have a GitLab Agent registered to this project
  • Have committed the agent config file to the correct path
  • Be using GitLab SaaS or a GitLab instance that supports Workspaces
