An error occurred while creating a Bitbucket workspace.

I am currently trying out Bitbucket and encountered an error while creating a workspace. 

I'm not sure what's going on. Who can help me?

Hi @szsiploocian welcome to Atlassian community.

As the error suggests, "Something went wrong on our end. Please try again. If this keeps happening, contact support. (Issue ID for Atlassian use: %22c4c9a277-aeb5-4771-a981-ddb696b3bc0d%22)" strongly suggests an issue on the Atlassian server side, not with the workspace name you chose or your local setup.

This is a known, intermittent bug that occurs when creating a Bitbucket workspace through the initial signup flow.

Steps and official document-Join or create a workspace :

1. Go to Atlassian Administration: Navigate to the central administration portal for your Atlassian account:

   • https://admin.atlassian.com/

2. Log In: Log in using the same Atlassian Account credentials you used to try and create the workspace.

3. Navigate to Products: In the top navigation bar, look for and select Products (or sometimes Apps > Atlassian Apps depending on your organization structure).

4. Add Bitbucket:

   • Find the option to Add product or Add app.

   • Select Bitbucket.

5. Create Workspace: You will be prompted to choose a name for your Bitbucket Cloud workspace.

   • Enter the desired workspace ID (e.g., loocian).

   • Click Agree and add (or Create)

This method bypasses the buggy initial creation screen and typically succeeds immediately. If you were associated with an Atlassian Organization, you might need Organization Admin permission to add new products.

As the error provided an explicit "Issue ID for Atlassian use", the next best action is to connect with Atlassian Support team.
