Adding a Gitlab webhook

Abstract

You can specify webhooks on Gitlab so that Bitrise automatically triggers a build of your app whenever you perform a specified action, such as a code push or a pull request.

You can set up webhooks so that Bitrise automatically triggers a build of your app whenever you perform a specified action, such as a code push or a pull request. For GitLab, all you have to do is register your bitrise-webhooks URL as a Webhook in your GitLab repository.

You can register a webhook either automatically or manually. This guide walks you through the process of manually registering a webhook.

Admin access only

Only users with the role of admin on the app's team can access all functions of the App Settings page of an app.

  1. Open your app on Bitrise.

  2. On the main page of the app, click on the App Settings icon: settings.svg.
