Bitbucket error: Unexpected character encountered while parsing value: <. Path '', line 0, position

Mark Mindlin

We use Atlassian.Stash - C# API wrapper for Atlassian Stash, version v4.0.30319

C# .Net 4.8, Windows 10/1909

We migrated from Bitbucket Server to Bitbucket org, and have the error: Unexpected character encountered while parsing value: <. Path '', line 0, position 0

 try
{
var client = new StashClient(ConfigParametres.GitBaseURL, username, password);
ResponseWrapper<Atlassian.Stash.Entities.Commit> allCommits = await client.Commits.Get("PROJECT_KEY", "REPOSITORY_NAME", null, null);
if (allCommits.Values == null)
{
return false;
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
return false;
}

Hi Mark,

Bitbucket Server aka Stash and Bitbucket cloud are 2 different products with 2 completely different REST APIs. Any client written to work with Bitbucket Server will not work as the URL paths will be completely different.

I would expect you will get a 404 not found HTML page as a response which cannot be parsed.

Here is the BBCloud REST API https://developer.atlassian.com/bitbucket/api/2/reference/

I'm not aware of a ready-to use client, but it may be out there.
