Do we have a way to give input parameters before running bitbucket pipeline from console ui?

Question

Hi,

I am looking for a Jenkins or Azure Pipelines like solution where I need to give parameters values and run the pipeline. Bitbucket pipeline should take those values and run the pipeline steps.

I come across Workspace variables, Repository variables and Deployment variables which are not useful in my case. I can't go to these variables for each deployment and give the build number for my dev deployment.

Please suggest if there is any alternative approach where I can mention the parameters before pipeline run like this.

Regards,

Hareesh

Hi Hareesh,

This is possible with custom pipelines. Custom pipelines do not run automatically on every push. They can be triggered manually from the UI (like in your screenshot) and you can include in their definition variables that you provide at run-time.

You can check our documentation on custom pipelines with variables here (an example is also included):

* https://support.atlassian.com/bitbucket-cloud/docs/pipeline-start-conditions/#Custom--manual--pipeline-variables

Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions!

Kind regards,
