Move approved work into Bitbucket review

Once a change is ready, get it into the review queue without reassembling the request by hand. Send the approval context through Ably.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Create a pull request

Creates a new pull request in a specified bitbucket repository, ensuring the source branch exists and is distinct from the (optional) destination branch.

Why this helps

Approved work can sit waiting because creating the pull request requires another round of context gathering and manual setup.

  • Carry the approval context into the review request.
  • Reduce the manual handoff from decision to code review.
  • Make ready work visible in Bitbucket sooner.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Ably and Bitbucket once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for approved changes.
  • 3Describe that an approved request should create a Bitbucket pull request using the supplied existing source branch and review context.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one approved request and confirm the source branch and destination are correct.

Questions about this workflow

Does the source branch need to exist?

Yes. The Bitbucket action requires an existing source branch, and it must differ from the optional destination branch.

Can Notis determine whether work is approved?

The incoming request should clearly indicate approval. Do not send unapproved requests to this workflow.
