GitLab | Open a pull request | Made with Supernova

Open a GitLab pull request when a hook is triggered

Supernova will open a new or append an existing pull request on a branch called supernova / [exporter name]. Make sure there are no conflicting branch names before running the build.

You will first need to authenticate with your GitLab account to allow Supernova to open a pull request on your behalf. You have two options for authentication:

Use a GitLab personal access token

You can learn how to authenticate your GitLab account in Integrations.

Once you have authenticated:

In the create a hook dialog, select Open GitLab pull request as the delivery method

Select where you would like to open the pull request — choose the connection (OAuth or personal access token), a group, repository, branch, and optionally a relative path

Optional — If you do not want the hook to trigger automatically when it is created, you can turn the toggle to OFF

Click Confirm to create the hook

To change which GitLab account you are using or the method of authentication, click Manage Gitlab authorization in the dialog, or go to the Integrations page.

Configuration options

Connection: The authentication method you would like to use for this hook (OAuth or personal access token)

Group: The GitLab group containing your repository

Repository: The GitLab repository

Branch: The branch where the pull request will be opened

Relative path (optional): Path relative to the repository root to which code will be exported

We will open a new or append an existing pull request on a branch called supernova / [exporter-name]. Make sure there are no conflicting branch names before running the build.
