Notis

Start a pull request when a specification is ready

Bring a document-backed change request into the Bitbucket review flow.

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 pull request in a repository.

Why this helps

A finished specification may describe a change without creating a clear review entry point for the code team.

  • Give a specification a visible engineering review path.
  • Include the supplied document link in the pull request description.
  • Reduce the manual work of opening a review request.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect ActiveMerge and Bitbucket once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation.
  • 3Tell Notis to open a pull request using the provided repository, source branch, destination branch, and specification context.
  • 4Pick the Notis webhook trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real specification request and an existing source branch.

Questions about this workflow

Does this create the code branch?

No. The selected action creates a pull request and requires the source branch to exist already.

What must the webhook request provide?

Provide the repository, an existing source branch, the intended destination branch if applicable, and the specification context.
