There are any plans for a Bitbucket feature like Dependabot (Github)?

Hello!

I’m a Platform Engineer, and we use Bitbucket Cloud features in our software development processes.
Our team has been showing a lot of interest in having a native feature similar to GitHub's Dependabot, or at least something that allows us to map the dependencies used in the project that require updates.

I noticed that Atlassian recommends using the Snyk add-on for this purpose, but I saw that it comes with an associated cost. I’d like to understand if there are any other available options, or if there are any plans to offer a similar free feature on the Bitbucket Cloud roadmap.

Hi Bryan,

I'd suggest looking through our Atlassian Marketplace for ideas as to tools that may provide similar functionality to Dependabot - our recommendation however is Snyk as you've mentioned due to our partnership with them.

There are no plans on our roadmap currently for such functionality - but I have raised a feature request with our developers on your behalf. You may Watch this to receive future updates related to it and Vote for it to improve its visibility with regard to customer demand:
