# FAQ[¶](#faq "Permanent link")

### What can trigger an automation?[¶](#what-can-trigger-an-automation "Permanent link")

A push to a matching branch, or the creation of a matching tag. You can also filter by [commit message](/docs/cloud/automations/filter-by-commit-message/).

### Which Git providers are supported?[¶](#which-git-providers-are-supported "Permanent link")

The same providers Native Builds supports — GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, and Azure DevOps. See [Integrations](/docs/cloud/integrations/).

### How do I skip a build for a specific commit?[¶](#how-do-i-skip-a-build-for-a-specific-commit "Permanent link")

Add a [skip keyword](/docs/cloud/automations/filter-by-commit-message/#skip-keywords) such as `[skip ci]` to the head commit message.

### Can an automation also submit to a store or publish a Live Update?[¶](#can-an-automation-also-submit-to-a-store-or-publish-a-live-update "Permanent link")

Yes — attach a [destination](/docs/cloud/automations/auto-submit/) or a [channel](/docs/cloud/automations/auto-publish-live-update/) to the automation.

### My automation didn't run — what should I check?[¶](#my-automation-didnt-run-what-should-i-check "Permanent link")

See [Troubleshooting](/docs/cloud/automations/troubleshooting/).
