What updates the "builds" widget on the repository dashboard?

Question

On the right side of the repository page, there is a widget that shows builds status.

This will show status of builds that are triggered in Jenkins.  The build jobs can have different status (pending, building, failed, success, etc) depending on the progress.  I have multiple Webhooks that will send updates to the repos but for some repositories, the same Webhooks may or may not update the status of the builds.

I am trying to find out what exactly updates this widget as Webhooks notifications doesn't seem to be the one that updates this widget.

Hi @Jimmy.Diep

It's not a webhook but a build status (AKA commit status) API.

https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/bitbucket/rest/api-group-commit-statuses/#api-repositories-workspace-repo-slug-commit-commit-statuses-build-post

Bitbucket's own CI/CD tool, Pipelines, also uses this API to create these statuses.

I'm not familiar at all with how Jenkins works and identifies when it needs to run (likely a webhook) but creation of these statuses has to be done via the API posted above.
