Automations are various actions that Runway can take on your behalf during the release process. From big actions like , to more routine manual tasks like or , our continuing goal is to empower teams to think less about the busywork of preparing releases.
Additionally, since Runway sits between your project management, version control, CI, app stores, Slack and other parts of your toolchain, it’s able to perform unattended tasks where an action needs to happen in a particular tool once the status of another tool changes.
Certain Runway automations surface an option to Bypass pull requests and allow Runway to commit and push changes to the target branch directly. If a target branch has branch protections enabled, and the branch protections require pull requests for merging or restrict pushes to the target branch, you must first update the in order for the Bypass pull requests automation setting to function properly.
