These values can be specified using [CI/CD variables](../../../../../ci/variables/index.md):
-`GITLAB_RUNNER_GITLAB_URL` is used for `gitlabUrl`.
-`GITLAB_RUNNER_REGISTRATION_TOKEN` is used for `runnerRegistrationToken`
The methods of specifying these values are mutually exclusive. Either specify variables `GITLAB_RUNNER_REGISTRATION_TOKEN` and `GITLAB_RUNNER_TOKEN` as CI variables (recommended) or provide values for `runnerRegistrationToken:` and `runnerToken:` in `applications/gitlab-runner/values.yaml.gotmpl`.
The runner registration token allows connection to a project by a runner and therefore should be treated as a secret to prevent malicious use and code exfiltration through a runner. For this reason, we recommend that you specify the runner registration token as a [protected variable](../../../ci/variables/index.md#protect-a-cicd-variable) and [masked variable](../../../ci/variables/index.md#mask-a-cicd-variable) and do not commit them to the Git repository in the `values.yaml.gotmpl` file.
