How to automatically trigger build on pull request in Azure DevOps?


I have created a build pipeline.

have master, develop and feature/* branches in my Azure repo.

I have created a branch policy to require a build for feature/* branches.

How do I trigger an automatic build on pull request? Or even how do I queue a build manually on the pull request?

I can't see such option on my pull request screen in DevOps.

As far as I know the build policy should appear above Work Items on the right hand side. My policy does not appear there and I have no even a possibility to trigger the build manually.

I am not sure what I am doing wrong? Or what is missing?


Solution

  • The screenshot you provided shows that the PR is for the develop branch. If you want a PR for develop to trigger a build, then set a policy on the develop branch.

    Branch policies apply to the target branch, not the source branch.
