Hi Guys

trying to set the repository generate by api as private

is_private : true  with no success ... im using OAUTH .... 

tried to create repo and update (post and put) with no success 

with POST

curl --request POST \

--url 'https://api.bitbucket.org/2.0/repositories/${mycompanyworkspace}/${repo}' \

--header 'Authorization: Bearer ${token}' \

--header 'Accept: application/json' \

--data '{ "scm": "git", "is_private": "true" }'

with PUT

curl --request PUT \

--url 'https://api.bitbucket.org/2.0/repositories/${mycompanyworkspace}/${repo}' \

--header 'Authorization: Bearer ${token}' \

--header 'Accept: application/json' \

--data '{ "scm": "git", "is_private": "true" }'

 

I see that there is already question on this with no answer ...

Hi @Eyal David ,

It's Norbert here from the other Community question

I would like to inform you the reason why the repository creation is failing is because the "-H "Content-Type: application/json" flag is missing from your call. This flag is needed as we need to specify the content type. 

Can I ask you to do an API call like this and let me know if it creates you a private repository?

curl -X POST -H "Authorization: Bearer token" https://api.bitbucket.org/2.0/repositories/workspace/reposlug -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"scm": "git", "is_private": true, "fork_policy": "no_public_forks"}'

 Please let me know how it goes, Eyal.

Best Regards,
Norbert
