Are "public" snippets unlisted?

John Chamberlain_l8f2ju

Are snippets marked as public listed publicly and indexable or does it simply mean that the random URL is accessible to anyone with that URL?

I'd like to store configuration files as snippets because of the revision tracking and ease of "wget"ing them from a server. They don't contain any sensitive information like passwords, just standard application configurations for MySQL, PHP, etc but I don't necessarily want our configurations to be indexed and public listed either.

Thanks!

Hi John and welcome to the community!

Public snippets are listed in https://bitbucket.org/workspace-id/workspace/snippets/?status=all where workspace-id is the ID of the workspace where they belong. They can also be indexed by search engines.

If you don't want them to be indexed or publicly accessible, you will need to make them private.

Kind regards,
Theodora
