How to trigger jobs in jenkins which is in private network by bitbucket Webhook

ThangaTamilvanan

Hi Everyone,

            I was not able to trigger jobs in jenkins server with PR approval and merge by  Bitbucket Webhook.  Jenkins server is in Private N/w with private IP only.

I see 403 Error in the bitbucket. I have tried Generic-webhook too. 

I tried IP whitelisting of following IP but no luck.

• 104.192.136.0/21

• 185.166.140.0/22

• 13.200.41.128/25

Hello @ThangaTamilvanan ,

and welcome to the community!

The way that web-hooks works is by sending a request to your server when an event has triggered it. For Bitbucket Cloud to be able to send the request, your server will need to have a public IP address and be reachable through the internet.

It's not possible to send web-hook requests to private IP addresses or private network. If your Jenkins instance is under a private network, you'd at least have some sort of gateway/proxy with a public IP address that redirects the requests from Bitbucket to your internal Jenkins ip address.

For a full list of Bitbucket Cloud web-hooks IPs, you can refer to the documentation below:

• Valid IP addresses for webhook delivery 

Those IP addresses must be allowed in your firewall so Bitbucket can connect to it.

I hope that helps! Please let us know if you have any questions.
