Pull request triggers run Automations when PR events occur: code changes, reviews, merges. Use them for automated code review, security scanning, documentation updates, and compliance checks. They support GitHub.com through the GitHub App, and GitLab and Bitbucket Cloud through webhooks. Use a service account to separate Automation activity from human work.

Configuration

Pull request trigger configuration

​
Event source

Pull request triggers need an event source that delivers PR events from your Git provider to Ona. There are two options:

​
GitHub

If your organization has the GitHub integration enabled, select GitHub as the event source. Ona receives PR events directly through the App. When your Ona organization connects more than one GitHub organization, each event source includes the GitHub organization name, such as github.com/acme. Select the organization that owns the repositories this Automation should monitor.

​
Webhook

If your organization has webhooks configured, a dropdown appears instead, letting you select an existing webhook or configure a new one.

​
Runs on

  • Projects (recommended): select projects. The Automation monitors all repositories within them.
  • Repositories: use a search query to filter specific repositories.

​
Triggers on PR

Common combinations: Opened + Updated (check every change), Ready for review (analysis before human review), Approved (final validation)
