This version of GitHub Enterprise was discontinued on 2023-03-15. No patch releases will be made, even for critical security issues. For better performance, improved security, and new features, upgrade to the latest version of GitHub Enterprise. For help with the upgrade, contact GitHub Enterprise support.

After a site administrator upgrades your Enterprise Server instance to Enterprise Server 3.9 or later, the REST API will be versioned. To learn how to find your instance's version, see "About versions of GitHub Docs". For more information, see "About API versioning."

Pulls

Use the REST API to interact with pull requests.

About pull requests

You can list, view, edit, create, and merge pull requests using the REST API. For information about how to interact with comments on a pull request, see "Issue comments."

Pull requests are a type of issue. Any actions that are available in both pull requests and issues, like managing assignees, labels, and milestones, are provided by the REST API to manage issues. For more information, see "Issues."

Custom media types for pull requests

These are the supported media types for pull requests.

application/vnd.github.raw+json
application/vnd.github.text+json
application/vnd.github.html+json

Create a pull request

Works with GitHub Apps

To open or update a pull request in a public repository, you must have write access to the head or the source branch. For organization-owned repositories, you must be a member of the organization that owns the repository to open or update a pull request.

This endpoint triggers notifications. Creating content too quickly using this endpoint may result in secondary rate limiting. See "Secondary rate limits" and "Dealing with secondary rate limits" for details.

Parameters for "Create a pull request"

Headers
Name, Type, Description
`accept` string Setting to `application/vnd.github+json` is recommended.
Path parameters
Name, Type, Description
`owner` string Required The account owner of the repository. The name is not case sensitive.
`repo` string Required The name of the repository without the `.git` extension. The name is not case sensitive.
Body parameters
Name, Type, Description
`title` string The title of the new pull request. Required unless `issue` is specified.
`head` string Required The name of the branch where your changes are implemented. For cross-repository pull requests in the same network, namespace `head` with a user like this: `username:branch`.
`base` string Required The name of the branch you want the changes pulled into. This should be an existing branch on the current repository. You cannot submit a pull request to one repository that requests a merge to a base of another repository.
`body` string The contents of the pull request.
`maintainer_can_modify` boolean Indicates whether maintainers can modify the pull request.
`draft` boolean Indicates whether the pull request is a draft. See "Draft Pull Requests" in the GitHub Help documentation to learn more.
`issue` integer An issue in the repository to convert to a pull request. The issue title, body, and comments will become the title, body, and comments on the new pull request. Required unless `title` is specified.

Get a pull request

Works with GitHub Apps

Lists details of a pull request by providing its number.

When you get, create, or edit a pull request, GitHub Enterprise Server creates a merge commit to test whether the pull request can be automatically merged into the base branch. This test commit is not added to the base branch or the head branch. You can review the status of the test commit using the mergeable key. For more information, see "Checking mergeability of pull requests".

The value of the mergeable attribute can be true, false, or null. If the value is null, then GitHub Enterprise Server has started a background job to compute the mergeability. After giving the job time to complete, resubmit the request. When the job finishes, you will see a non-null value for the mergeable attribute in the response. If mergeable is true, then merge_commit_sha will be the SHA of the test merge commit.

The value of the merge_commit_sha attribute changes depending on the state of the pull request. Before merging a pull request, the merge_commit_sha attribute holds the SHA of the test merge commit. After merging a pull request, the merge_commit_sha attribute changes depending on how you merged the pull request:

If merged as a merge commit, merge_commit_sha represents the SHA of the merge commit.
If merged via a squash, merge_commit_sha represents the SHA of the squashed commit on the base branch.
If rebased, merge_commit_sha represents the commit that the base branch was updated to.
