Creating a Pull Request from a Bamboo Plan

Subhi Andrews

We have some plans ( both build and deploy) that do commit and pushes of branches. We would like to create a pull request automatically after a branch is pushed. Is there a quick way to do this? 

If we have to use Bitbucket APIs. Is there an example/documentation of how to use Python APIs for this purpose?

Thanks,

Hi @Subhi Andrews

You could use a script task and call a REST API to create the pull request.

Below you can find two examples using the curl command, one for Bitbucket cloud and another for server.

Bitbucket Cloud

 curl https://api.bitbucket.org/2.0/repositories/<USER_NAME>/<REPOSITORY>/pullrequests \
    -u <USER_NAME>:<APP_PASSWORD> \
    --request POST \
    --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
    --data '{
        "title": "<PULL-REQUEST TITLE>",
        "description": "<PULL-REQUEST DESCRIPTION>",
        "source": {
            "branch": {
                "name": "<SOURCE_BRANCH>"
                }
            },
            "destination": {
                "branch": {
                    "name": "<DESTINATION_BRANCH>"
                }
            }
        }'

⚠️Please make sure you create an app password with read/write permission for pull-requests.

Bitbucket server

curl <BITBUCKET_URL>/rest/api/1.0/projects/<PROJECT>/repos/<REPOSITORY-SLUG>/pull-requests \
    -u <USERNAME>:<PASSWORD> \
    --request POST \
    --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
    --data '{
    "title": "<PULL-REQUEST TITLE>",
    "description": "<PULL-REQUEST DESCRIPTION>",
    "fromRef": {
        "id": "<SOURCE BRANCH>",
        "repository": {
            "slug": "<REPOSITORY_SLUG>",
            "project": {
                "key": "<PROJECT>"
            }
        }
    },
    "toRef": {
        "id": "<DESTINATION BRANCH>",
        "repository": {
            "slug": "<REPOSITORY SLUG>",
            "project": {
                "key": "<PROJECT>"
            }
        }
    }
}'

I hope that helps.
