Pull Request builds not functioning

[CPretorius1986]

Good day,

We have updated AL Go, and the Pull request builds on one of the branches stopped functioning the branch is main-support

We added the Pull Request trigger + the branch and ran update settings

confirmed that the settings updated in YAML file

Full file attached

PullRequestHandler.yaml

What could the problem be?

Any feedback?

The yaml looks correct as far as I can see. What is your default branch? If you go under Settings, it should say. I'm assuming it is main?

GitHub will always read the PullRequestHandler.yaml from the default branch (https://github.blog/changelog/2025-11-07-actions-pull_request_target-and-environment-branch-protections-changes/) so make sure your update is included in the default branch (e.g. main).

main/default branch is main,

Are you saying that the branch main should also include the yaml for main-support?

I haven't tested it but that's how I understand the changelog from my previous message:
"The pull_request_target event now always uses the default branch for workflow source and reference"

In AL-Go v8.3 (latest) we changed the default pull request trigger to pull_request instead of pull_request_target. This is also something you configure through https://github.com/microsoft/AL-Go/blob/main/Scenarios/settings.md#pullRequestTrigger. With that trigger, I don't believe this is something you'd run into.

Thanks, you need to include the second branch in the main/default branch. Then it started to work.
