Authentication¶

Create an API Key for your technical Renovate user in SCM-Manager
The technical user must have a valid name and email address
Put the API key in the RENOVATE_TOKEN environment variable, so that Renovate can use it

Set correct platform¶

You must set the platform config option to scm-manager in your admin config file.

Set permissions¶

The technical user must have the permissions to:

read the repository
pull/checkout the repository
push/commit the repository
create pull requests for the repository

Those permissions can be granted on a repository level within the permission settings of each repository.

Install Review Plugin¶

To let Renovate access the Pull Request API, you must install the Review Plugin with at least version 3.11.0. Find the list of available plugins by going to Administration -> Plugins -> Available.

Supported versions of SCM-Manager¶

Renovate supports SCM-Manager major version 3.x. The minimum version for the 3.x range is 3.10.0.

Automerge¶

Currently, the Renovate automerge feature is not supported by the SCM-Manager platform. Every pull request requires merging them manually for now.
