Does the Bitbucket CODEOWNERS feature keep a PR from being merged or just add reviewers to the PR?

These documents seem unclear.

• https://support.atlassian.com/bitbucket-cloud/docs/set-up-and-use-code-owners/

Is there a way to block a PR until CODEOWNERS approve the PR?

Bitbucket CODEOWNERS adds reviewers to PRs when they are created/updated.

In your repository settings you can define approval conditions and if you're on Bitbucket premium you can enforce these [1].

Good to know: If you want to configure branch or file/path reviewer groups you can use Workzone for BB Cloud [2]. PR merges are blocked natively (no BB premium required) and you can enable auto-merge on 'all conditions met'.

It looks like Bitbucket code owner ONLY adds reviews and don't enforce anything, without adding 3rd party apps. 

We already have a 3rd party app that does the whole thing. 

Thank you

There is an outage today for the https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1218598/devsensei-pr-workflow-automation-code-owners-for-bitbucket?tab=overview plugin. I found the https://support.atlassian.com/bitbucket-cloud/docs/set-up-and-use-code-owners/ doc and it's unclear if this is do the same thing.
