| Synchronization occurs automatically when: | ||
| - Users authenticate via the external provider | ||
| - Users access an organization linked to an external entity |

We are doing this only after a fixed interval. So not all requests to an organization will issue a whole sync.
| ## Limitations | ||
|
|
||
| - **Provider Support**: Currently limited to GitLab | ||
| - **Token Validity**: Requires valid OAuth2 tokens for sync |

There is another limitation: devguard can never decide if a user just lost access to an repository on Gitlab or if it got deleted. Thus devguard will be never delete any external entity projects and instead just revokes permissions

Please double check. Isn't the user forced to provide the mechanical justification instead like vulnerable code not present?
