How to launch Multibranch Pipeline using github webhook

Question

In the Build Trigger freestyle job, there is the option “GitHub hook trigger to poll GITScm”.

screen capture here:

.

Together with the webhook in gitlab config " http: // myjenkins / gitlab / notify_commit " it works fine, which means that the build will start automatically when something is pushed into the repository. But why is there only one parameter in the Multibranch Pipeline called “Periodically, unless otherwise performed”? Is there any plugin not installed? How to run Multibranch Pipeline using github webhook, like freestyle.

Answer 1

This page described how to configure the pipeline as code for a multi-channel workflow in jenkins.

This is a quote from the description inside:

The Multibranch Workflow feature (provided by the workflow plugin) provides the following key features:

• Automatically create a workflow (work) in Jenkins for a new branch in repo (assuming webhooks are registered from GH to Jenkins) .
• A string specific to this child branch and its unique change and assembly history for scm.
• Automatic cancellation / deletion of a task for branches deleted from the repository, according to the settings.
• The flexibility of customizing branch properties by overriding parent properties, if required.

To set up websites, see this page .

To check if your jenkins are reporting events, you can use this function below:

PS: look at the URL that you configured, if you omitted the "/" at the end of the URL, it may not be able to reach the jenkins.

Hope this helps!
