# GitLab for DevRev

Sync GitLab and DevRev so issue status is always real-time and driven by code.

## Overview

![image](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/shashankcube/image/main/gitlab%20automation.png)

Connect GitLab with DevRev, and ensure your work stays in sync between the two systems, such that issues and statuses are always real-time and driven by code activity. GitLab for DevRev is a snap-in that has been used by several organizations, and ties DevRev issues closely with Git activities, eliminating the need for humans to manage issues.

Why should you un-manage your work? You should use this snap-in if you want to reduce work about work. Let machines manage issues, including creating and updating statuses, so developers can focus on work that matters. You’ll resonate with this, if you have ever:

- Delivered a hot-patch and realized you never had an issue to track it

- Wasted time just updating your team on the status of an issue

- Or just felt that creating and managing issues is a distraction

If your team’s best practice is to link your GitLab activity to an existing issue-ID during branch creation, commits and MRs, then this automation will honor that and enable a GitLab driven issue state, without auto creating issues. We can link your DevRev issue to GitLab activity, through mention of issue-ID in branches, commits, and PRs.

However, if you choose to work in GitLab and never created or linked an issue, you shouldn’t have to sweat it. This automation will automatically create issues that track all associated commits, branches and merge requests. The auto-created issue is enriched with MR description and related GitLab events. The status of these issues is driven by GitLab activity, and the issues will auto-transition stages, from In Development to In Review, and Closed. Your work is always accounted for and more importantly your team members have visibility and know what you’ve been up to, resulting in fewer interruptions.

## Features

This automation is powerful, and has several configurable features. As they say, the power is in the defaults! When you install this snap-in, DevRev configures defaults that are tried and tested. You always have the option to customize further.

### Automatic status updates

You can associate GitLab commits, branches and merge requests with the DevRev issue they correspond to. Doing so allows you to see GitLab activity in the corresponding DevRev issue and to act on those events, allowing you to automate away your manual tasks. Mention DevRev issues in GitLab, and route the relevant GitLab events to this issue. They can be mentioned either as display IDs (ISS-34) or object IDs (issue:34), case insensitively. A DevRev issue can be mentioned in branch names, commit messages, or MR titles.

### Autocreate issues from GitLab branch

If you do not explicitly associate your DevRev issue to GitLab branches, commits or MRs, then DevRev can autocreate your issues so you have an account of all your GitLab activity. This feature automatically creates an issue when a new branch is created, and tracks all associated commits and merge requests on this issue. The auto-created issues will move status based on Git activity, to in development based on branch and commit activity, and in review when MRs are created and merged. If desired, when MRs are merged, you can personalize the automation to move the issue to closed status. However, this template by default will keep the issue in an open state.

### Autocreate issues from GitLab MRs

You can choose to automatically create issues when a new MR is created, and it is not linked to an existing DevRev Issue. The behavior is similar to how issues are auto-created with new branches. The auto-created issues will move status based on Git activity, and events are posted on the DevRev issue timeline. If desired, when MRs are merged, you can personalize the automation to move the issue to closed status. However, this automation by default will keep the issue in an open state.

Issues autocreated from GitLab branches or MRs are called 'autonomous issues'. They have the tag `autonomous`.

### Attribute part to autonomous work

This automation will infer the part from a repository if possible. If not, the issue is created with a specified default part. You can configure the default part while setting up this snap-in. Every issue on DevRev must have a part attribution.

### Enrich autonomous work descriptions

Enrich autonomous issues with information derived from GitLab MR events. The title and description of an autocreated issue is enriched with the MR data. When a new GitLab MR is opened or edited, then the related autonomous issue description is updated with the latest MR description. If the user has removed the auto generated text, then the automation will no longer update the description from MRs. Similarly, autonomous work titles are updated with the MR title, if the user hasn’t already updated it.

### Link autonomous work with related issue

Create a related link between the work-items mentioned in the MR body and the autonomous issues tagged with the branch/MR. When a new GitLab MR is opened/edited, for all the autonomous tagged work items(by branch/MR), automatically mark the issues mentioned in the MR as related.

### Automatically close autonomous work

Autonomous work gets closed when its related MR is merged. However, if there is no MR activity on this work, then the autonomous work is closed after configurable period.

### Automatic MR tasks

When a merge request is requested or reopened, a DevRev task is created for you. In order for this automation to be triggered, you'll need to link your merge requests to DevRev issues. If your MR is removed, merged or closed, then the Task gets deleted. However, if you submit your MR review, then the task is closed.

### Automatic MR reminders

When a merge request is inactive for more than a specified number of days, then this automation will post a message in all related DevRev issues. You'll need to link your GitLab merge request to DevRev issue to enable these reminders. There are several ways to link your GitLab merge requests to DevRev issues. You can do so by mentioning the DevRev issue ID in the merge request title or body, or mention it in the branch name or commit message. Reminders are also posted for issues created autonomously.

Supercharge cross-functional work with this set of default automations, propagating information across various entities at DevRev–including conversations, tickets, product enhancements, and development issues.

DevRev's shared system of record opens up doors for the machine to take over and intelligently ensure that heartbeats from various functions of your DevRev workspace travel across each other.

DevRev's system of record converges multiple functions in an organization–touching everything from customer conversations to support tickets to planned product enhancements and then developer issues. Because the system of record is shared, it paves the way for the machine to take on menial, repetitive work, especially around bringing together (or converging) these cross-functional entities (and thus the teams that work on them).

_Convergence with DevRev_ is a set of default automations that powers cross-functional information snap-in in your DevRev workspace, such that updates from product teams' issues and enhancements make their way to tickets in the customer-facing functions and vice versa with little human intervention. Let machines be the messenger of updates so they arrive before the next "Any progress on this?".

## Features

This automation is powerful and has a series of individual, configurable behaviors.

The power is in the defaults! With this pre-enabled snap-in come DevRev's proven defaults. You always have the option to adjust further.

**Automatic customer updates from tickets**

Propagate updates from tickets to related customer conversations so your customer is never in the dark.

- When a ticket is linked to a conversation, autonomously update the conversation and provide a follow-up reference to the customer.
- When a ticket is updated with relevant information, post a notification to the conversation.
- When a ticket is closed, post an autonomous update to any related PLuG conversations.

**Automatic updates between tickets to issues**

Leveraging the association between customer tickets and your product team's issues, this automation focuses on keeping issues aware of changes to tickets and vice-versa so the dev team is kept in the loop.

- When the severity of a ticket changes, autonomously update the issue priority and stage accordingly.
- When progress is made on an issue, update the status on dependent tickets.
- When underlying issues are resolved, advance tickets to the next stage.

**Autonomous issue management**

Parent issues, child issues, dependent issues, and blocked issues are every dev's nightmare. With this set of autonomous convergence behaviors, issues, and their hierarchy become manageable.

- Watch children issues and automatically update a parent issue when a dev starts working on it.
- As children issues make progress, send state updates to parent issues along with information on progress towards completion.
- When parent issues are closed, update child issues automatically.

**Automatic updates between Issues and Enhancements**

Synergizing Parts and work has been made easier by ensuring through automated reminders and suggested actions that your product enhancements and the work items or issues linked to them are always in sync.

- Remind the owners by automatically posting a comment to create and link issues to an enhancement that is ‘In Progress’ state without any linked issue.
- Remind the owners by automatically posting a comment to create and link issues to an enhancement that has been in the ‘Prioritised’ stage for a while.
- Remind the owners through an automatically suggested action to move an open enhancement to ‘In Progress’ when any issue linked to it is moved to the ‘In Progress’.
- Remind the owners by automatically posting a comment to move listed issues out of the triage stage for an enhancement.

**Automatic update between Tickets and Enhancement**

When your customer tickets are linked to an ongoing product enhancement, it is best to provide absolute clarity to the support team on what's happening on the product front through an automatic update system. 

- Automatically subscribe ticket owners to the enhancement that is attached to the ticket so that they stay informed.
- Automatically post comments on tickets whenever the stage is updated in the attached enhancement.

**Automatic resolution and archival of conversations**

When your authenticated customers do not respond to a conversation within a specific period of time set as the resolution timeout, the conversation is automatically marked as resolved. Even though the conversation is resolved, the customer still has the option to reopen it if necessary. However, if the customer does not reply within another specified period of time set as the archival timeout, the conversation is automatically archived and cannot be reopened. The customer can always initiate a new conversation for any follow-up needs.

Please note that these configuration settings only apply to authenticated users. For conversations with guests or visitors, if the customer doesn't respond within 3 days while the conversation is in the _Waiting on user_ stage, it is automatically resolved. After 7 days, it is archived automatically.

## Installation

For detailed installation and configuration instructions, refer to the [Convergence documentation](https://docs.devrev.ai/automations/converge).

Real-time updates between customer conversations, support tickets, Product enhancements and developer issues.

This snap-in works as a connector with Glean, the enterprise search platform. It indexes DevRev objects into Glean, enabling them to be searched using filters and keywords.

## How it works

The snap-in runs on a timed schedule and incrementally indexes DevRev objects. During each scheduled run, the snap-in intelligently identifies objects that have not been indexed yet or have been updated since their last indexing. Once an object is loaded into Glean, it becomes discoverable through the platform.

Ensure the Glean dataset specified in the snap-in's configuration does not already exist or contains no object definitions, as these would be overwritten with the definitions for DevRev objects.

## Features

- Configure which DevRev objects should be indexed into Glean, such as tickets, issues, accounts, external users, articles, and others.

- Object type, keywords, and stock fields can be used as filters on Glean out of the box.

- Configure which custom fields should be displayed as filters on Glean's UI.
  
## Installation

For detailed installation and configuration instructions, refer to the [Glean connector documentation](https://devrev.ai/docs/integrations/glean).

With the aim of bringing support closer to your customers, DevRev has integrated WhatsApp as a communication channel. Customer concerns raised via WhatsApp messages will sync with the DevRev inbox, allowing you to maintain an unified view of ongoing conversations with your customers for better support management and efficiency.

Learn more about WhatsApp for Business at https://developers.facebook.com/docs/whatsapp/overview#about-the-platform.

## Features

* **Unified Customer Communication**: With the addition of WhatsApp as a communication channel, end customers can conveniently send their queries, bug reports, and feature requests about the DevRev product via WhatsApp. These messages are seamlessly synced with the DevRev inbox, providing a unified view of all customer interactions and minimizing the need for context switching between different communication platforms.
  
* **Automated Template Messages for Efficient Support**: DevRev understands the limitations of the WhatsApp for Business API, which restricts direct agent communication after 24 hours without a response. To address this, DevRev offers support for template messages. When a customer's message remains unanswered for 24 hours, DevRev provides a mechanism to send template messages, ensuring continuous communication and streamlining the support process. These template messages need pre-approval from Meta. To ease the approval process, DevRev automatically sends two templates for approval on installation of the snap-in.

* **Enhanced Support Agent Productivity**: By integrating WhatsApp as a communication channel, DevRev empowers support agents to efficiently manage customer inquiries. When a support agent replies via the DevRev inbox, the update is seamlessly sent to the customer via WhatsApp. This streamlined approach not only keeps customers informed promptly but also boosts support agent productivity by centralizing all customer communications within the DevRev system of record.

# Bitbucket for DevRev

Connect Bitbucket with DevRev to sync your work and get real-time issue and status updates based on code activity.

The Bitbucket snap-in removes the need for manual issue management by connecting DevRev issues with Git actions. By automating issue handling, developers can focus on meaningful work rather than administrative tasks. This approach resonates with those who've encountered issues like delivering patches without proper tracking, spending time updating issue statuses, or finding issue management distracting.

You can link your Bitbucket commits, branches, and pull requests with existing DevRev issues without creating issues automatically in DevRev. The issues' statuses are guided by Bitbucket activity, transitioning from _In Development_ to _In Review_ and _Closed_ stages. This ensures comprehensive work tracking and enhances team visibility, minimizing disruptions.

However, if you choose to work in Bitbucket and never create or link an issue, you shouldn’t have to sweat it. This snap-in can automatically create issues that track all associated commits, branches, and pull requests. The auto-created issue is auto-populated with the PR description and related Bitbucket events. The status of these issues is driven by Bitbucket activity, and the issues will auto-transition stages, from _In Development_ to _In Review_, and _Closed_. Your work is always accounted for and more importantly, your team members have visibility and know what you’ve been up to, resulting in fewer interruptions.

## Features

**Automatic status updates**

Associate your Bitbucket commits, branches, and pull requests with the corresponding DevRev issues and tickets to integrate with the relevant DevRev issue or ticket. This integration enables you to take action on Bitbucket events within the DevRev issue/ticket, automating manual tasks. Mention DevRev issues or tickets in Bitbucket using either display IDs (for example, ISS-34) or object IDs (for example, ticket:34), with case insensitivity. You can include a DevRev issue/ticket reference in branch names, commit messages, or PR titles. You can define which stage an issue is updated to in the configuration screen for each Bitbucket event like new commit, new pull request open, new branch creation, and PR close. 

**Autocreate issues from Bitbucket branch**

If you do not explicitly associate your DevRev issue to Bitbucket branches, commits, or PRs, then we can auto-create your issues so you have an account of all your Bitbucket activity. This feature automatically creates an issue when a new branch is created, and tracks all associated commits and pull requests on this issue. The auto-created issues will move status based on Bitbucket activity, to _In Development_ based on branch and commit activity, and _In Review_ when PRs are created. When PRs are merged, the issue will be automatically closed, though this behavior is configurable.

**Autocreate issues from Bitbucket PRs**

You can choose to automatically create issues when a new PR is created, and it is not linked to an existing DevRev Issue. The behavior is similar to how issues are auto-created with new branches. The auto-created issues will move status based on Bitbucket activity, and events are posted on the DevRev issue timeline.

Issues auto-created from Bitbucket branches or PRs are called autonomous issues, and have the tag `autonomous`.

**Attribute part to autonomous work**

Autonomous issues originating from Bitbucket will be attributed to a default part. You can configure the default part while setting up your snap-in. Every issue in DevRev must have a part attribution.

**Auto-populate autonomous work descriptions**

When a new Bitbucket PR is opened or edited, then the related autonomous issue description is updated with the latest PR description. If the user has removed the auto-generated text, then the automation will no longer update the description from PRs. Similarly, autonomous work titles are updated with the PR title, if the user hasn’t already updated it.

**Link autonomous work with related issue**

Create a related link between the work items mentioned in the PR body and the autonomous issues tagged with the branch/PR. When a new Bitbucket PR is opened/edited, for all the autonomous tagged work items(by branch/PR), automatically mark the issues mentioned in the PR as related.

**Automatically close autonomous work**

Autonomous work gets closed when its related PR is merged. However, if there is no PR activity on this work, then the autonomous work is closed after a configurable period.

**Bitbucket Commands**

Enable quick actions to close or attribute a PR to a DevRev issue with the slash command.

- `/towards`: Use the `/towards` command in the PR description to associate the related Bitbucket activity to the issue. This will ensure that the PR and issue are linked such that related events are posted and issue status is driven by Bitbucket events.
- `/close {work-id}`: Use `/close ISS-3 ISS-4` in a PR body to automatically close a specific issue when the PR is merged. You can also use `/close #work` to close all associated issues with a PR when that PR is merged without knowing the specific IDs.

**Automatic PR tasks**

When a pull request is requested or reopened, a DevRev task is created for you. For this automation to be triggered, you'll need to link your pull requests to DevRev issues. If your PR is removed, merged, or closed, then the Task gets deleted. However, if you submit your PR review, then the task is closed.

**Automatic PR reminders**

When a pull request is inactive for more than a specified number of days, then this automation will post a message in all related DevRev issues. You'll need to link your Bitbucket pull request to the DevRev issue to enable these reminders. There are several ways to link your Bitbucket pull requests to DevRev Issues. You can do so by mentioning the DevRev issue ID in the pull requests title or body, or mentioning it in the branch name or commit message. Reminders are also posted for issues created autonomously.

You can choose to set up the inactive period in the number of days through the setting to specify the number of days before sending PR reminders.

## Installation

Bitbucket

Sync Bitbucket and DevRev so issue status is always real time and driven by code.

# GitHub for DevRev
Sync GitHub and DevRev so issue status is always real-time and driven by code.
## **Overview**

<img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/shashankcube/image/main/github-automation.png" align="center"/> 
 
Connect GitHub with DevRev, and ensure your work stays in sync between the two systems, such that issues and statuses are always real-time and driven by code activity. GitHub for DevRev is a snap-in that has been used by several organizations and ties DevRev issues closely with GitHub activity, eliminating the need for humans to manage issues.

Why should you un-manage your work? You should use this snap-in if you want to reduce work about work. Let machines manage issues, including creating and updating statuses, so developers can focus on work that matters. You’ll resonate with this if you have ever:

- Delivered a hot-patch and realized you never had an issue to track it
- Wasted time just updating your team on the status of an issue
- Or just felt that creating and managing issues is a distraction

If your team’s best practice is to link your GitHub activity to an existing issue ID during branch creation, commits, and PRs, then this snap-in will honor that and enable a GitHub-driven issue state, without auto-creating issues. [Here](https://devrev.ai/docs/integrations/github#github-events) are the different ways you can link your DevRev issue to GitHub branches, commits and PRs. 

However, if you choose to work in GitHub and never created or linked an issue, you shouldn’t have to sweat it. This snap-in will automatically create issues that track all associated commits, branches, and pull requests. The auto-created issue is enriched with PR description and related GitHub events. The status of these issues is driven by GitHub activity, and the issues will auto-transition stages, from In Development to In Review, and Closed. Your work is always accounted for and more importantly, your team members have visibility and know what you’ve been up to, resulting in fewer interruptions. 

## **How it works**

To enable GitHub for DevRev, click on **Install** and we'll walk you through a few simple steps including connecting with GitHub. You'll have a default set of configuration settings and the option to further personalize this snap-in. Learn more about the features in this snap-in.

## **Features** 
This snap-in is powerful and has several configurable features. As they say, the power is in the defaults! When you install this snap-in, we'll configure defaults that are tried and tested. You always have the option to personalize further.

**Automatic status updates**

You can associate GitHub commits, branches, and pull requests with the DevRev issue they correspond to. Doing so allows you to see GitHub activity in the corresponding DevRev issue and to act on those events, allowing you to automate away your manual tasks. Mention DevRev issues in GitHub, and route the relevant GitHub events to this issue. They can be mentioned either as display IDs (ISS-34) or object IDs (issue:34), case-insensitively. A DevRev issue can be mentioned in branch names, commit messages, or PR titles.

**Autocreate issues from GitHub branch / PRs**

To make use of this feature, go to **My settings** on the **Configuration** screen of the snap-in and toggle **Enable for me**. This setting is not applied across the entire organization, each user must enable it.
You can enable the **Create DevRev issue when a new branch is created** or **Create DevRev issue when a new PR is opened**, depending on your preferences. It would be ideal if you enabled one of them rather than both.

**Autocreate issues from GitHub branch**

If you do not explicitly associate your DevRev issue to GitHub branches, commits, or PRs, then we can auto-create your issues so you have an account of all your GitHub activity. This feature automatically creates an issue when a new branch is created, and tracks all associated commits and pull requests on this issue. The auto-created issues will move status based on Git activity, to in development based on branch and commit activity, and in review when PRs are created. When PRs are merged, the issue will be automatically closed, though this behavior is configurable.

**Autocreate issues from GitHub PRs**

You can choose to automatically create issues when a new PR is created, and it is not linked to an existing DevRev Issue. The behavior is similar to how issues are auto-created with new branches. The auto-created issues will move status based on Git activity, and events are posted on the DevRev issue timeline.

Issues auto-created from GitHub branches or PRs are called autonomous issues, and have the tag `autonomous`.

**Attribute part to autonomous work**

Autonomous issues originating from GitHub will be attributed to a default part. You can configure the default part while setting up your snap-in. Every issue in DevRev must have a part attribution.

**Enrich autonomous work descriptions**

Enrich autonomous issues with information derived from GitHub PR events. The title and description of an auto-created issue are enriched with the PR data. When a new GitHub PR is opened or edited, then the related autonomous issue description is updated with the latest PR description. If the user has removed the auto-generated text, then the automation will no longer update the description from PRs. Similarly, autonomous work titles are updated with the PR title, if the user hasn’t already updated it.

**Link autonomous work with related issue**

Create a related link between the work items mentioned in the PR body and the autonomous issues tagged with the branch/PR. When a new GitHub PR is opened/edited, for all the autonomous tagged work items(by branch/PR), automatically mark the issues mentioned in the PR as related.

**Automatically close autonomous work**

Autonomous work gets closed when its related PR is merged. However, if there is no PR activity on this work, then the autonomous work is closed after a configurable period.

**GitHub Commands**

Enable quick actions to close or attribute a PR to DevRev issue(s) with the slash command.

* `/towards` - Use the `/towards`  command in the PR description to associate the related GitHub activity to the issue(s). This will ensure that the PR and issue are linked such that related events are posted and issue status is driven by GitHub events.

* `/close {work-id}` - Use `/close ISS-3 ISS-4` in a PR body to automatically close a specific issue(s) when the PR is merged. You can also use `/close #work` to close all associated issues with a PR when that PR is merged without knowing the specific IDs.

**Automatic PR tasks**

When a pull request is requested or reopened, a DevRev task is created for you. For this automation to be triggered, you'll need to link your Pull Requests to DevRev issues. If your PR is removed, merged, or closed, then the Task gets deleted. However, if you submit your PR review, then the task is closed.

**Automatic PR reminders**

When a pull request is inactive for more than a specified number of days, then this automation will post a message in all related DevRev issues. You'll need to link your GitHub Pull Request to the DevRev issue to enable these reminders. There are several ways to link your GitHub Pull Requests to DevRev Issues. You can do so by mentioning the DevRev issue ID in the pull requests title or body, or mentioning it in the branch name or commit message. Reminders are also posted for issues created autonomously.

You can choose to set up the inactive period in the number of days through the max_inactive_days setting.

**Automatic programming language skill identification for dev users**

When a pull request is merged, the automation identifies the programming languages used in the PR and adds them as skills to the Dev user who submitted the request. To enable this feature, reach out to the DevRev customer experience team.
