How to download a Splunk Security Essentials' custom content .json from a GitLab private page?

I am working on a partner integration project using Splunk Security Essentials (SSE) with my custom security content.

Locally, I have the security use cases in JSON format that SSE accepts, but I want to do this integration through my private GitLab by uploading these security use cases there. However, there is a need to keep this GitLab private, so I can't just make SSE download the formatted JSON content by simply passing it the URL in the `content_download_url` setting from `essentials_update.conf`.

Is there a setting in the `essentials_update.conf` file, or in some other file that I can also include an access token for my GitLab? If not, what other ways can I download content from this private GitLab page in order to integrate with SSE?
