Cannot get build to trigger on PR or master

Question

I'd really like my build to automatically fire anytime someone posts a PR or pushes to master. For whatever reason it never works. I'm using GitHub webhooks and have a Primary source webhook event configured for PUSH and HEAD_REF = (master|pr.*) which seems like the correct RegEx, but it doesn't work. If I do `master` it works for master, if I do `pr` it works for PR's... what am I missing.  
  
Thanks in advance.

Hi StealthSid2,  
  
For your use case, you can use two filter groups:  
  
First filter group:  
Event type: PUSH  
HEAD_REF: master  
  
Second filter group:  
Event type: PULL_REQUEST_CREATED  
BASE_REF: master  
  
Best,

Hi StealthSid2, for webhook event filtering, please use the EVENT filter (like the setting in Zhen's response). HEAD_REF and BASE_REF are used to filter the branches of a PR or Push event.   
  
For more details, please check the sample in our documentation https://docs.aws.amazon.com/codebuild/latest/userguide/sample-github-pull-request.html#sample-github-pull-request-filter-webhook-events  
  
Thank you for using AWS CodeBuild.

I cannot believe I didn't notice the abilty to add multiple filter groups. I was trying to shoehorn it into a single regex on one filter group. Thanks so much for the help!
