Choose which repositories Pullwise reviews

Pullwise reviews a repository when both of these are true:

1. The token can see it. The Repositories list on the platform’s card shows exactly which ones.
2. It has the Pullwise webhook, directly or through its group or organisation.

There’s no separate project list to manage: the webhook is how you choose.

Check what the token can see

On the SCM screen, select Repositories on a connected platform’s card.

You see	What it means	What to do
A list of repositories	These are reachable	Add the webhook to the ones you want reviewed.
No repositories visible to this token.	The token’s scope is too narrow	Give it access, or use a group, organisation or workspace token.
Couldn’t list repositories	The token expired, was revoked or lacks permissions	Create a new token and save it with Edit.
A repository is missing	It’s outside the token’s scope	Widen the token’s access.

Roll out gradually

A gradual rollout lets your team get used to the reviews before they’re everywhere.

1. Pilot. Add the webhook to one or two active repositories whose team wants to try Pullwise.
2. Watch a week of reviews in Reviews. Ask the team whether the findings are useful, and adjust the model if needed.
3. Expand. Add the webhook at group level (GitLab), organisation level (GitHub) or to each repository (Bitbucket).

Pause or stop reviews

To stop reviews for	Do this
One repository	Disable or delete its webhook in your platform.
A whole platform	Switch the platform off on its SCM card. Webhooks still arrive, but Pullwise ignores them.
Everything	Switch off every platform.

Your review history stays in Reviews either way.

Rotate tokens and secrets

Tokens expire, and people leave. To replace a token without missing reviews:

1. Create the new token in your platform with the same permissions.
2. In SCM, select Edit on the card, paste the new Access token, and leave Webhook secret blank to keep it.
3. Select Save, then check Repositories still lists your repositories.
4. Revoke the old token in your platform.

To change the webhook secret, update it in Pullwise and in every webhook for that platform at the same time. Deliveries fail with 401 until both match.
