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.
Pull request triggers require webhooks, which are available on the Enterprise plan only. See Plans and limits.
Supports GitHub and GitLab only. Use a service account for PR automations to separate automation activity from human work.
