Overview

You can update Projects that are synchronized with GitHub repositories by using the APIs described in this article. Use these APIs with Continuous-Integration/Continuous-Deployment workflows to pull changes from one development stage to another and checkout GitHub repositories. You still need commit changes through the Manager interface. The Authorization type supported by the APIs is Basic Auth.



Pull Request

Pull changes from a branch into the specified project. You must have already created the project and done a checkout of the branch in the Manager UI prior to calling this endpoint. This endpoint can be useful to update a project with the latest changes on a branch for testing.
