I want to get the branch's PR's target branch.

This variable `bamboo.repository.pr.targetBranch` gives ${bamboo.repository.pr.targetBranch}: bad substitution

This variable available only for plan branches which were created when PR opened at repository. Please be sure you have this option selected at Plan branch management screen Capture 2020-04-02 at 14.14.21.png

I don't have that option.

How did you get to that page.

It's available if default repository of plan supports PR: Bitbucket Server or Cloud

I use PR in Bitbucket Cloud. Is there a special button I need to click?

What type of repository configured at Bamboo? It should be Bitbucket Cloud repo, not regular Git repository

The repo was using git. I have not changed it to Bitbucket Cloud.

I still get the same error

`line 2: ${bamboo.repository.pr.targetBranch}: bad substitution`

You're on good path. Once you have repo with Bitbucket Cloud type and enabled option to create plan branch when PR opened.

Next time Bamboo detects pull request at repo it will create plan branch, every build at this plan branch will have variables you mentioned.

PR detection occurs every 3 minutes
