Trigger Teamcity build from bitbucket cloud on pull request - teamcity

I have been trying to trigger a build on TC on PR but the refs I have access to TC doesnt include refs/pull or refs/pull-request. Is this a Bitbucket cloud thing? Given that being the case how do I trigger build specifically on pull request?

There is a Bitbucket PR plugin for TeamCity: https://github.com/ArcBees/teamcity-plugins/wiki/Configuring-Bitbucket-Pull-Requests-Plugin
Bitbucket doesn't seem to offer access to pull requests the same way github does, but the plugin does the trick for us.

How can i remove Azure Pipeline Build from GitHub checks

I just setup CI/CD for a GitHub repo.
The CI build which validates a pull request is setup up as GitHub Action.
The CD build (which should run after the pull request was merged) is setup using Azure Pipelines as i would like to use the artifacts generated as a trigger for a Release Pipeline using Azure Pipelines as well.
The only thing that's still bugging me is, that the CD Build is also triggering automatically for a pull request and i can't figure out where i can configure those checks.
The checks currently running when a pull request is created are the following:
I want to get rid of the Continous Delivery Build here.
I tried to configure the branch protection rules but this has no effect:
On the Azure Pipeline side i completely disabled the triggers:
But this also has no visible effect to me.
I tested Disable pull request validation in the Triggers of the azure devops pipeline. On my side, it works well, and the build pipeline validation check is not displayed in the github pull request.
You can first check whether the pipeline source repo that you set the "Disable pull request validation" option corresponds to the github repo that created the pull request. Then try a few more times, it is possible that the settings are not applied immediately.
In addition, as workaround you can opt out of pull request validation entirely by specifying pr: none in yaml. Please refer to this official document.
# no PR triggers
pr: none

Setting up continues Integration on TFS with GitLab as Repo

I need to configure CI pipeline in my TFS with source repo in GitLab, I have updated the Trigger section as below and checked in the code, but the build was not triggered, is there any configuration required in the GitLab repo? Please advice hot to achieve this.
I would troubleshoot your problem by checking the following in this order:
when triggering the build manually, does the source code downloading from the GitLab repository successfully work?
if yes, then:
did you created and pushed the develop branch on the repository?
You need to publish your locally created 'develop' branch on the remote repository, e.g. >git push -u origin develop
if no, then there are issues on the "Services" entry you created on TFS for accessing your GitLab repository:
check whether you are using HTTPS in the URL;
to enable HTTPS access to your repository, remember to set a password on your GitLab account, then use that password along with your username (email address) on the "Services" endpoint set up on TFS;
p.s. also, check which 'Connection' is selected in the Repository section of your build definition: it should be the one pointing to your GitLab repo :-)
I have changed the Poling interval to 180 seconds and it worked.

API Management with GIT and Octopus - Git PUSH / Git PULL

Following on from this post of mine:
API Management with GIT
I have an API management instance running. I know API management has its own GIT repository.
I can successfully clone, change and push changes up to my API management GIT repository.
I am also running Octopus deploy and am trying to use this:
Git Push
and this:
Git Pull
To pull my code from my companies GIT repository and push to the APIM GIT repository.
The thing is, these to plugins fail immediately with an issue not being able to find file paths on the Octopus server. Also, these were written in 2014.
Is there a recommended better way to pull from your companies repo and push to APIM repository? Also, if I am pulling to Octopus, where does the code get stored before it is pushed to APIM?
In the end, I think this plug in is out of date. I ended up writing my own PowerShell GIT bash and it works a treat.
I get the APIM json code from my companies source control then push it ti the APIM GIT repository and publish it using PowerShell.
For anyone who has this issue in the future.
The cause is most likely you are trying to use the GitPull step from the octopus server, while the code behind the step makes reference to this parameter $OctopusParameters['Octopus.Tentacle.Agent.ApplicationDirectoryPath'].
This parameter seems to return an empty value. I have not tried running from a Deployment Target.
The git clone directory could be another parameter/variable specified
I am raising this with the Octopus team.

How do you get a BitBucket pull request to trigger a Bamboo build?

I'm working on CI/CD environment for my workplace. One of the issues we're struggling with is the pull request workflow we currently use, and which we want to continue to use.
We can get BitBucket to tell Bamboo to make a build when you commit to a feature branch and push it to BitBucket, but for the life of me I can't find anything in there related to actual pull requests. In our instance, it would be great if a plan branch would be created when a pull request for a feature branch is generated in BitBucket. Subsequent commits would then trigger additional builds on the PR plan branch. Is this even possible on Bamboo with BitBucket?
Updating this to say that proper pull request support was finally added to Bamboo in version 6.0:
release notes
You can now configure the plan branching model to automatically create branches when new PRs are added to Bitbucket.
It looks like somebody answered your question on another forum: https://answers.atlassian.com/questions/17435563/how-do-you-get-a-bitbucket-pull-request-to-trigger-a-bamboo-build which references this feature request for Bamboo: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/BAM-14844
I'm posting this here for other people like myself who stumble across this question.
The bamboo feature called plan branches has been implemented in recent releases. See the link posted by Mynock, or directly here.
