The Auto License Assignment feature simplifies the management of developer licenses within your organization. Instead of manually assigning licenses to each developer, Mesrai can automatically assign a license to active contributors.
How it Works
When enabled, Mesrai monitors pull request activity in your repositories.
- Automatic Assignment: If a user creates more than one pull request, Mesrai checks if there are available license slots in your organization.
- If a slot is available, the user is automatically assigned a license and their PRs will be reviewed.
- If no slots are available, Mesrai will react to the pull request with a thumbs down emoji (👎) for Github or a padlock emoji (🔒) for Gitlab to indicate that the review could not be performed due to a lack of licenses.
Ignored Users
You can configure a list of Ignored Users. These users will be excluded from the auto-assignment process.
- No Reviews: Pull requests created by ignored users will not be reviewed by Mesrai.
- No Reactions: Mesrai will not react to their PRs, even if they exceed the PR limit. It will be as if Mesrai ignored the PR entirely.
This is useful for bots, service accounts, or specific team members who do not require code reviews.
