GitLab provides a one-click install for various applications which can
be added directly to your configured cluster. Those applications are
needed for [Review Apps](../../../ci/review_apps/index.md) and
[deployments](../../../ci/environments.md).
[deployments](../../../ci/environments.md). You can install them after you
[create a cluster](#adding-and-creating-a-new-gke-cluster-via-gitlab).
To see a list of available applications to install:
1. Navigate to your project's **Operations > Kubernetes**.
1. Select your cluster.
Install Helm Tiller first because it's used to install other applications.
NOTE: **Note:**
With the exception of Knative, the applications will be installed in a dedicated namespace called
`gitlab-managed-apps`. In case you have added an existing Kubernetes cluster
with Tiller already installed, you should be careful as GitLab cannot
detect it. In this event, installing Tiller via the applications will
result in the cluster having it twice. This can lead to confusion during
deployments.
As of GitLab 11.6, Helm Tiller will be upgraded to the latest version supported
by GitLab before installing any of the applications.
