How can I let multiple machines to download my Bitbucket repos at a time without login?

Question

I have some 50 Raspberry pis / local machines and I want those machines to download latest software/applications from my bitbucket repos automatically whenever there is any update. And It shouldn’t prompt for authentication every time it downloads.

And how to automatically check for any updates or modifications in that pirticular repositroy or branch and download if available?

Hi Obulesu! If you use SSH (instead of HTTPS) you won't need to enter your credentials everytime you try to connect to Bitbucket.

Are you on Bitbucket Cloud? If so, have you tried using the REST API?

If you're on Bitbucket Server, downloading zip files is not a built-in feature as of today, but you can do it using the Bitbucket Server Archive Plugin add-on that is published via Atlassian Labs. I found this information via this thread.

Hope this helps!
