How can I log in to Bitbucket by providing the username and password directly in the URL?

[Caterina Curti]

Is there a way to provide the the username and password directly in the URL for Bitbucket?

For example, see this thread for how this can be achieved in Jira:

Passing username and password via URL to jira

In Jira, you can add the os_username and os_password parameters in the request URL.

For Bitbucket Server / Data Center, you can log in by adding the following parameters to the Bitbucket URL:

?j_username=<user>&j_password=<password>

Please note that this is a bad idea, since you're now passing your credentials in plain text.
