Couldn't find a bitrise.yml in the app repository
Couldn't find a bitrise.yml in the app repository

Issue:

I'm getting an error while trying to switch my .yml from being hosted on bitrise.io to my app repository

Possible solutions:

Start by checking the following:

  • The bitrise.yml is at the root of the repository

  • The repository URL is properly set at the app's Settings tab

  • The bitrise.yml exists on the default branch (set in the app's Settings tab)

  • The service credential user has read access to the repo (can be checked on Teams tab, by testing the connection

Please note that this only works for Bitbucket, Gitlab, Self-hosted Gitlab, and Github at the moment. It's not integrated with GitHub Enterprise or any other self-hosted service. If you are using GitHub Enterprise or a self-hosted service, you can use the Bitrise Run step to run your workflows from the repository as described here.
