Bitbucket Server API to get information of all the branches in a repo

Harshit Singhvi

Hi Team,

 

I am looking for a bitbucket server api which provides details for all the  branches in a repo.

 

For ex:.

The json output should contains details like

- Author of the branch

- Creation date of the branch

- Origin branch if any.

 

curl -s -u "XXXX":"XXXXX" "https://XXXXXX.com/rest/api/1.0/projects/DEMO/repos/democonfiguration/branches?limit=2000"

 

Getting this as output

 

• "size":1000,
• "limit":1000,
• "isLastPage":false,
• "values":[
  1. {
     • "id":"XXXX,
     • "displayId":"XXX",
     • "type":"BRANCH",
     • "latestCommit":"XXXXX",
     • "latestChangeset":"XXXX",
     • "isDefault":false

I am using the above api but i am not getting the desired output (author name , creation date)

 

Can anyone please help as how can i get the creation date and author name of all branches in a repository

 

We are using 5.13.0 bitbucket server enterprise edition

Bitbucket doesn't track that sort of metadata yet. You will need a plugin to do it.

Git doesn't either but there are some clever ways to find it I guess. Check out https://stackoverflow.com/questions/12055198/find-out-git-branch-creator/19135644 and see if it helps.
