+:title: Reporters
+
+Reporters
+=========
+
+Zuul can communicate results and progress back to configurable
+protocols. For example, after succeeding in a build a pipeline can be
+configured to post a positive review back to gerrit.
+
+There are three stages when a report can be handled. That is on:
+Start, Success or Failure. Each stage can have multiple reports.
+For example, you can set verified on gerrit and send an email.
+
+Gerrit
+------
+
+Zuul works with standard versions of Gerrit by invoking the
+``gerrit`` command over an SSH connection.  It reports back to
+Gerrit using SSH.
+
+The dictionary passed to the gerrit reporter is used for ``gerrit
+review`` arguments, with the boolean value of ``true`` simply
+indicating that the argument should be present without following it
+with a value. For example, ``verified: 1`` becomes ``gerrit review
+--verified 1`` and ``submit: true`` becomes ``gerrit review
+--submit``.
+
+Gerrit Configuration
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The configuration for posting back to gerrit is shared with the gerrit
+trigger in zuul.conf. Please consult the gerrit trigger documentation.
