 Copy the Zenodo sandbox token you just created into a new [GitLab CI variable](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/ci/variables/#for-a-project)
 called `ZENODO_TOKEN`.
 
+For Gitlab you also need the HERMES Push Token. That Token gives access to the project in order for HERMES to create Merge Requests.
+Therefore, you [create an access token in your project](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/project/settings/project_access_tokens.html#create-a-project-access-token).
+The Token needs to have at least the `developer` role and `write` access (e.g. write_repository scope).
+Then you create a Gitlab CI variable with the token called `HERMES_PUSH_TOKEN`.
+
 Copy the [template file for GitLab to Zenodo Sandbox publication](https://github.com/hermes-hmc/ci-templates/blob/main/gitlab/hermes-ci.yml)
 into your project to `.gitlab/hermes-ci.yml`.
