How to commit multiple files from memory using bitbucket API?

Question

Hello I have been able to upload files to bitbucket cloud by saving them first to my disk and then commiting them one by one to my repository via the API, but I haven't been able to send files that are in memory and I haven't been able to send multiple files which should get committed to different folders at the same time.

Does anybody know how to do this?

I am writing my api functions in python using the requests library.

Hi @Kurt Rhee Welcome to the community! If I got this right you wish to use the API to create commit on multiple files from memory? If yes, I believe the following curl API endpoint can be used with the content type of multipart/form-data to commit multiple files: curl --request POST \ --url https://api.bitbucket.org/2.0/repositories///src \ --header 'Authorization: Basic cm9.....==' \ --header 'Content-Type: multipart/form-data' \ --form 'message=my commit message' \ --form branch= \ --form file1=@\ --form directory/file2=@ As for using python, I am not an expert on this, but from my research on how to POST a file with Python and I found the following example: import requests from requests_toolbelt.multipart.encoder import MultipartEncoder m = MultipartEncoder( fields={ 'branch': 'dev', 'message': '', '/path/file1': ('filename', open('file1.py', 'rb'), 'text/plain'), '/path/file2': ('filename', open('file2.py', 'rb'), 'text/plain'),} ) .... .... r = requests.post(url, data=m, headers) I hope this helps!
