Troubleshooting[ΒΆ](#troubleshooting "Permanent link") ## My automation isn't triggering a build[ΒΆ](#my-automation-isnt-triggering-a-build "Permanent link") Check these causes, roughly in order of likelihood: 1. **Pattern mismatch** β€” the pushed branch or tag doesn't match the automation's [trigger pattern](/docs/cloud/automations/reference/#trigger-pattern-syntax). Confirm the pattern (e.g. `v*` matches tags, not branches). 2. **Skip keyword** β€” the head commit message contains a [skip keyword](/docs/cloud/automations/filter-by-commit-message/#skip-keywords) like `[skip ci]`. 3. **Disabled** β€” the automation is toggled off. Check the [Automations](https://console.cloud.capawesome.io/apps/%5F/automations) page. 4. **Webhook not registered** β€” if automatic webhook registration failed (insufficient permissions or a self-hosted provider), the Git event never reaches Capawesome Cloud. Configure it manually β€” see [Set up the Git webhook](/docs/cloud/automations/webhooks/). 5. **No build minutes** β€” your plan's [build minutes](/docs/cloud/native-builds/limits/) are exhausted. ## How do I confirm the webhook is working?[ΒΆ](#how-do-i-confirm-the-webhook-is-working "Permanent link") Push a commit or create a tag that matches the trigger pattern, then check that the automation's **Last triggered** timestamp updates and a new build appears on the [Builds](https://console.cloud.capawesome.io/apps/%5F/builds) page. See [Set up the Git webhook](/docs/cloud/automations/webhooks/#verifying-the-webhook). ## A build was triggered but failed[ΒΆ](#a-build-was-triggered-but-failed "Permanent link") That's a build problem, not an automation problem β€” see [Native Builds troubleshooting](/docs/cloud/native-builds/troubleshooting/).
