How can I create custom pull request merge checks?

Question

Hi,

I would like to add custom pull request merge checks. It would be beneficial to add, for example, a REST API call to an external service that would return either 2XX to indicate check success or non-2XX status code to indicate check failure.

Would that be possible? Is there such a feature?

If not, how are you suggesting us implementing extra custom checks that would prevent a PR merge if they failed?

Yes, I would like to have the ability to run a http endpoint or a sh file to check

That would be great!

Looks like this feature is available for Bitbucket Server but not for Bitbucket Cloud

The only workaround I can think of is creating a step in bitbucket pipelines to do the checks and fail the build. Then the standard build check will block the PR merge.

Any other suggestions?
