Change requests screen

Learn about the dedicated change requests screen, which helps you browse, manage and review change requests before merging them and publishing them in your documentation

The change requests screen in GitBook makes it easy to view and manage active change requests in your organization.

In this screen, you can see open change requests, merge finished ones, and even collaborate with GitBook Agent to work on updates — all from a single, unified page.

View active change requests from the change requests screen.

Navigating the change request screen

Every change request within your organization will appear in the change requests screen, and can be filtered by drafts, in review, merged, and archived.

Additionally, you can filter change requests created by GitBook Agent.

Clicking into a change request will open it in an expanded view, allowing you to review, edit, merge, and even continue working on changes with GitBook Agent. This section also shows information about the change request, including the participants and reviewers, the description, and the changes highlighted using diff view.

To view more detailed information about a change request, click the Edit button in the upper right to jump straight to the change request’s space.

Reviewing a change request

When someone requests your review on a change request, you can edit the content and leave feedback right from the change requests screen.

You can either request changes if you think it still needs work, or approve the change request, to signal it's ready to merge.

Most reviews will take place in the change request’s comments, where collaborators can share feedback and have discussions about specific content blocks, or the change request as a whole.

Additionally, you can review a change request with GitBook Agent, allowing you to plan, check, and continue working on changes.
