Is it possible to use the API to generate an HTTP Access Token?

[Ryan Bobrowski]

Hello, wondering if it's possible to use the API to generate an HTTP Access Token (Bitbucket Server / Data Center)?  If we are applying an expiry to these tokens and they are used by other SASS applications to connect to Bitbucket, it would be nice to use the API to automatically generate them and update the other app.

If not, what's the typical flow for dealing with rotating tokens?

Thanks!

Hi Ryan,

Yes, there is a REST API for tokens, see https://docs.atlassian.com/bitbucket-server/rest/7.21.0/bitbucket-access-tokens-rest.html
