Current behavior
When I complete GitLab OAuth login in the space app, the callback crashes with a TypeError and I see the error message attached below:
TypeError: 'str' object is not callable
What I expect is to be redirected to the dashboard after successful GitLab authentication.
File: apps/api/plane/authentication/views/space/gitlab.py — same shadowing pattern as the GitHub bug: base_host = request.session.get("host") overwrites the imported function.
Steps to reproduce
- Go to the space app login page
- Click "Continue with GitLab"
- Authorize the application on GitLab
- See 500 error on callback — user is never authenticated
