Thank you for the article Karolis. Is a great read. I do have one question though. How to make this all work with a Pipeline job ?
With a regular Freestyle Project, it works like a charm. But the checks that I want to run are a part of a pipeline in a Jenkinsfile. So Ive configured HitHub project and build triggers as you mentioned. In the Pipeline section, i put the Refspec and Branch specifier as you mentioned. (See attached image)
Now when I issue a PR, the job Jenkins Job does get triggered but it errors out stating

did it fail to use the actual value or you have just changed ref yourself refs/heads/${ghprbActualCommit}? From the past it just seems like you need to find what it really likes to get through that webhook :) Webhook Relay will send whatever github is sending so I guess if you look for similar issues that people face when they have their Jenkins exposed to the public internet, it should be good enough. Haven't tried using pipelines myself :|

Any idea why this would happen ?
