Platform Notice: Cloud Only - This article only applies to Atlassian products on the cloud platform.

Summary

There is no specific feature on Bitbucket UI to send notifications regarding an OPEN Pull Request to respective reviewers. We will learn alternative methods to resolve this concern

Solution

  • Add a comment on the PR

    • Example: "Pending Review". The comment will be sent to all the reviewers via email

  • Tag a specific user using "@"

    • Example: "@xyz@gmail.com(@user_email) please review the PR". The comment will be sent to the user via email

  • Integrate Bitbucket with Slack, and enable "Pull Request comment" and "Create" option, with this the users will be notified whenever a PR is created and also when a comment is added.
