Getting Access to GAP

Prerequisites​

1. Your team is onboarded to Microsoft Azure​

Most likely your team is already onboarded at Azure. If not, instructions on how to start your teams cloud journey can be found on the "Getting Started with Azure" confluence page.

2. You have a Gjensidige Azure Test user​

To get a test user, go to the Guest User Request form and fill in your name and @gjensidige.xx-email. Select Test as Tenant. When the form is submitted, you will receive an email with signup instructions. Finish the signup process before moving to the next steps.

3. You have joined community Slack channels​

The GAP community is located in the channel #gap at Slack 👪💃 This is where we share ideas, collaborate and do support for developers using the platform.

Request Access Packages​

Your team access package​

To gain full access to both shared resources and those specific to your team, you’ll need to request membership in your team through the appropriate access packages. Go to https://myaccess.microsoft.com/. In the top-right corner, select the correct tenant (Gjensidige Forsikring ASA for Prod or Gjensidige - Test for Test) using the Organization icon. Request access to the relevant package:

  • Azure: Team <team_name> – Member (Prod)
  • Azure: Team <team_name> – Member (Test)

Your request will need approval from one of your team’s designated approvers. You can verify who the approver is for your team and environment by checking the approvers fields in the terraform-azure-onboarding repository. If you are listed as an approver, another approver must review and approve your request, since these access packages do not allow self-approval.

GAP Developer access package (deprecated)​

Access packages GAP Developer (Test) and GAP Developer (Prod) have been deprecated in favor of team access packages. All access previously granted through the GAP Developer packages is now provided via the corresponding team access packages. You do not need to renew any expired GAP Developer packages, and there is no cause for concern if renewal is unavailable—all necessary access is already covered by the team packages.

A detailed guide for accessing each tool is also available at our Confluence page Getting access to Platform tools - Slack, Github, Grafana, ArgoCD.
