SCM integration overview

Overview of how Percy integrates with your source code management system.

Percy integrates with your source code management system so you can do visual reviews alongside code reviews. It also facilitates a two-way sync between your Percy builds and your pull/merge requests, making it easy for your team to review visual diffs.

Supported SCMs


Once you integrate with your SCM, the next step is to link your Percy projects with your SCM repositories. This will automatically correlate commits and pull/merge requests with Percy builds.

Status updates


If a Percy build has visual diffs, it will be reported as needing review in your SCM. With one-click, you can review and approve the visual diffs in Percy.

Through this integration, Percy automatically pulls rich metadata into each build including information regarding the compared branches, committers, commit messages, and more.
