Create PR using curl command

[Steve Iribarne]

Hello

I've done a ton of searching and I'm sure the answer is somewhere in my searching, but I'm a complete NOOB at curl/rest/ etc... so I'm not exactly sure what I'm looking for.

I am writing a bash script (yes I'm old) ... and I'm at the point where I need to automate the process of creating a Pull Request.

So in order for my bash script to be able to create a PR, (we use SSH to access bitbucket (not http/username/password stuff)) and I think I need to use an OATH consumer token

So far I've added the an OATH consumer to my JIRA account.

Then I run the command:

curl -X POST -u "<key>:<secret>" https://bitbucket.org/site/oauth2/access_token -d grant_type=client_credentials

I get the response back:

{"access_token": "<ret_token>", "scopes": "pullrequest:write pipeline:variable", "expires_in": 7200, "refresh_token": "QKP5aVp43gu3kubF5X", "token_type": "bearer"}

All is good.. then I want to create a Pull Request... so I don't know where to put the access_token in the PR curl command:

curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" https://bitbucket.org/res\
t/api/1.0/projects/<myProj>/repos/<my_repo_name>/pull-requests -X POST --data pr.json

I know I'm doing something basic wrong.. Remember I'm a complete NOOB here.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
