Polling the repository for code changes means that Bamboo will check-out the source-code on a regular basis, and examine it for changes. If Bamboo detects a change, it will trigger a build.
To poll the repository for changes,
- Click 'Home' to go to the Dashboard.
- Click the 'All Plans' tab.
- Locate the plan in the list and click this icon:

- The 'Configuration' tab will be displayed. Click the 'Source Repository' sub-tab.
- In the 'Build Strategy' field, select 'Poll the repository for changes' (see screenshot below).
- In the 'Polling Frequency' field, specify how often (in seconds) Bamboo should check-out the source-code and examine it for changes.
- Click the 'Save' button.
