Cannot add known host via BitBucket API

John van Terheijden_8dzotf

Using the BitBucket API, I'm trying to

POST repositories/{user}/{slug}/pipelines_config/ssh/known_hosts/

with this json in the body:

{"hostname":"my.hostname.nl"} 

 The API responds with a

HTTP 400 Bad Request
{"error": {"message": "Bad request", "detail": "The request body contains invalid properties", "data": {"key": "variable-service.request.validation-error", "arguments": {}}}}

I also tried to include the fields that I get when I GET known hosts added manually, but the response stays the same.

Hello @John van Terheijden,

The payload looks incomplete, besides hostname it should also contain the metadata about the public key of that hostname, for instance:

{
  "hostname": "bitbucket.org",
  "public_key": {
    "key": "AAAAB3NzaC1yc2EAAAABIwAAAQEAubiN81eDcafrgMeLzaFPsw2kNvEcqTKl/VqLat/MaB33pZy0y3rJZtnqwR2qOOvbwKZYKiEO1O6VqNEBxKvJJelCq0dTXWT5pbO2gDXC6h6QDXCaHo6pOHGPUy+YBaGQRGuSusMEASYiWunYN0vCAI8QaXnWMXNMdFP3jHAJH0eDsoiGnLPBlBp4TNm6rYI74nMzgz3B9IikW4WVK+dc8KZJZWYjAuORU3jc1c/NPskD2ASinf8v3xnfXeukU0sJ5N6m5E8VLjObPEO+mN2t/FZTMZLiFqPWc/ALSqnMnnhwrNi2rbfg/rd/IpL8Le3pSBne8+seeFVBoGqzHM9yXw==",
    "key_type": "ssh-rsa",
    "md5_fingerprint": "md5:97:8c:1b:f2:6f:14:6b:5c:3b:ec:aa:46:46:74:7c:40",
    "sha256_fingerprint": "SHA256:zzXQOXSRBEiUtuE8AikJYKwbHaxvSc0ojez9YXaGp1A",
    "type": "pipeline_ssh_public_key"
  }
}

Hope this helps.

Cheers,
Daniil
