CAUTION:
**Warning:**
This feature might not be available to you. Check the
**version history**
note above for details.
Requesting a code review is an important part of contributing code. However, deciding who should review
your code and asking for a review are no easy tasks. Using the "assignee" field for both authors and
reviewers makes it hard for others to determine who's doing what on a merge request.
GitLab's Merge Request Reviewers easily allow authors to request a review as well as see the status of the
review. By selecting one or more users from the
**Reviewers**
field in the merge request's right-hand
sidebar, the assigned reviewers will receive a notification of the request to review the merge request.
This makes it easy to determine the relevant roles for the users involved in the merge request, as well as formally requesting a review from a peer.
To request it, open the
**Reviewers**
drop-down box to search for the user you wish to get a review from.
