Jenkins DSL multibranch pipeline github push trigger

Question

I am using the jenkins dsl plugin multibranchpipeline job(https://jenkinsci.github.io/job-dsl-plugin/#path/multibranchPipelineJob) to create a multi branch pipeline. I have created jenkinsfile which handles the build jobs for each branches. I couldnt figure out how the github push trigger can be enabled through pipeline as code. All the examples I could find are using the jenkins web UI or the pollscm option. Can someone please help on how this can be enabled through code.

Project was hosted in github.In jenkins dsl multibranchpipeline, i was using the git branchsource at first. Then push events were not triggering builds. After i started using github branchsource, push events were automatically generating builds.

ie.

multibranchPipelineJob('example') {
branchSources {
    git {
        id('12121212') // IMPORTANT: use a constant and unique identifier
        remote('https://github.com/jenkinsci/job-dsl-plugin.git')
        credentialsId('github-ci')
        includes('JENKINS-*')
    }
}
}

Was changed to

multibranchPipelineJob('example') {
branchSources {
    github {
        id('23232323') // IMPORTANT: use a constant and unique identifier
        scanCredentialsId('github-ci')
        repoOwner('OwnerName')
        repository('job-dsl-plugin')
    }
}
}
