Triggering builds with Git Tags

You can specify a pattern for your Git Tags to trigger a specific workflow. This is a good way to build and deploy your app in a specific state. And it's very easy to set up!

Note that this requires an incoming webhook set up with the hosting service of your repository. Read more in the Webhooks section.

  1. Open your app on bitrise.io.

  2. Open the Workflow Editor.

  3. Select the Triggers tab.

  4. Select the TAG option.
