I have added global credentials in Jenkins.
However when I try to add then in my Pull Request builder plugin configuration, they don't seem available.
Any suggestions?
Using Jenkins 2.303.1
(the arrow on the left of the Add drop-down does not do anything)

The instructions in the GitHub pull request builder plugin documentation says that you need to "select Kind
-> Secret text
". Based on the icon in your credentials list, I think you have defined a credential type "Private key".
The pull request builder likely uses the GitHub API's to perform many of its operations. GitHub API's rely on a username and a personal access token. They generally do not support a private key as the credential.
Define a secret text credential as described in the online help.
