How to merge a feature branch into master without PR

[mohan yadav]

How to merge a feature branch into master without PR, please let me know the rest api endpoint to merge feature branch into master like below

bitbucket should have rest API end point like this https://docs.github.com/en/rest/branches/branches?apiVersion=2022-11-28#merge-a-branch

G'day, @mohan yadav 

Could you please provide further context on why you need to merge a branch without going through a pull request?

We currently don't have an existing API to merge a branch directly without a PR, so I am interested to hear your use case for this. However, we do have an existing feature request for merging branches via API at the following link: 

https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/BCLOUD-12583

Syahrul

Hi @Syahrul the context is below:

We have a system in c#, in which
1. If there is PR available  then check PR approval, conflicts etc ... action and then merge the PR - This is done as rest api end point exist.
2. If PR is not available  then merge the feature directly into master without PR checks because we can have some setting on PR like approver restriction ,must reviewer exist etc..

Hi Mohan,

Thank you for the feedback.

Please make sure you add your vote (by selecting the Vote for this issue link) to the feature request that Syahrul shared to express your interest. You can also add yourself as a watcher (by selecting the Start watching this issue link) if you'd like to get notified via email on updates.

Implementation of features is done as per our policy here and any updates will be posted in the feature request.

If you have branch restrictions, I'm afraid it is not possible to achieve what you want via API at the moment. However, you could merge from the UI (from the Branches page of the repo) without a PR.

Kind regards,
Theodora
