Default PR/MR gating configuration for new repositories

Automatically apply a default PR/MR gating config when new repositories are added.

If you frequently add repositories to Aikido, you can set a single default PR/MR gating configuration once, and Aikido will automatically apply it to every newly added repository in the future.

Prerequisite

Make sure Aikido automatically activates new repositories.

If Aikido doesn’t activate the repository, it can’t apply the default configuration.

1. Go to Repository Settings.
2. Enable Automatically activate new repos.

   Set the configuration you want Aikido to apply by default.

   This includes:

   • Which scans run on PRs/MRs
   • The failure threshold or Always Pass
   • When comments are added

   Save your settings

   Click Save Settings.

   Going forward repositories that are added will have this new configuration applied.

   Existing repositories will not be affected by this change.
