I have figured it out. When originally setting up GitLab, I used my personal ssh key for the admin, and not myself. Figured this out when I saw my user had not SSH key, and when adding, was told the key already existed. Created a new key for the admin and then added mine as myself, and now it is working as expected. Thanks,
