It is now possible to configure pipelines to be triggered whenever a pull request is merged or closed. Previously, only the option “PR merged” was available.
The primary use case for this trigger option is running cleanup / teardown pipelines to remove temporary resources that were provisioned when the PR was opened.
When this option is selected, pipelines will run by default on the base branch on the PR - as opposed to the head branch.
For more information and a full list of GitHub trigger event options, visit the dedicated Docs page.
