Remotely start automation server jobs to perform branch operations
Valid from Pega Version 7.3
You can remotely start a job on your automation server, such as Jenkins, after an activity has occurred, for example, after you push a branch to a remote system of record. You can configure a continuous delivery pipeline on the job by using the branches REST service and merges REST service to detect conflicts, merge branches, and return the status of the merge. By remotely starting a job to detect conflicts and merge branches, you can more quickly deliver higher-quality software.
