Manual triggers

Run automations on demand

Manual triggers run when you explicitly start them. Use them for one-time migrations, testing automations before scheduling, or changes that need human judgment on timing.

Configuration

Target projects

Select one or more projects - the automation runs on all repositories within them. Best for repetitive tasks on known repositories.

Target repositories

Use a search query to filter repositories. Best for large-scale migrations across many targets.

Query	Matches
backend	Repositories with “backend” in name
frontend-	Repositories starting with “frontend-”
myorg/	All repositories under “myorg” organization

Partial matches work across owner and repository names.

Search syntax: GitHub | GitLab

Running

1. Navigate to Automations
2. Click your automation
3. Click Run

The automation executes across all targets in parallel.
