When you trigger a build using the API the resulting build is created with event type custom. If you define conditional pipelines or conditional steps based on event type you may need to update accordingly.

Example pipeline condition includes the custom event type:

1
2
3
4
5


trigger:
  event:
  - push
  - pull_request
  - custom
