Automation: Assign label to a Github Pull Request.

Nikodem Macuk

Hello,
Is there an option to automatically assign a label to the pull request when it is created?

Example:

I have a ticket(Jiras' issue) with "Priority: Medium".

I start working on the ticket, create a Pull Request (no issue on github, just a Jira ticket + Pull request) that is linked to the issue.
Is there an automation rule that will assign a label with "priority: medium" to the pull request?

I did not find any template to do that.

Hi @Nikodem Macuk -- Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

I do not believe there is anything built-in to modify the PR that way from an automation rule.

Instead have you tried calling the Github REST API from the rule, using a send web request action, to add the label?

Kind regards,
Bill

Hey!
No I did not, I first wanted to make sure that I'm not gonna do something that is maybe already built in.

Thanks for the suggestion. Will definitely take a look!

And...here is an article on calling a REST API function from a rule to help:
