Bitbucket Export using curl in Windows

[Levi Park]

Hi,

I am working on the document below.

Exporting | Bitbucket Data Center and Server 8.4 | Atlassian Documentation

Since I am in a Windows environment, I am trying to execute the following curl statement after installing curl and jq, but it fails.

---

curl -u admin -s -n -X POST -H 'Content-type: application/json' -d '{"repositoriesRequest":{"includes":[{"projectKey":"*","slug":"*"}]}}' http://localhost:7990/rest/api/1.0/migration/exports/preview | jq .

---

I changed it to double quotation marks and the inner double quotation marks should be wrapped with \, so I changed it as below, but it still fails.

---

curl -u admin -s -n -X POST -H "Content-type: application/json" -d "{\"repositoriesRequest\":{\"includes\":[{\"projectKey\":\"*\",\"slug\":\"*\"}]}}" http://locahost:7990/rest/api/1.0/migration/exports/preview | jq .

---

Does anyone know how to do it?

Hi Levi,

the command won't work like that because it's trying to redirect output to jq using the Linux pipe syntax. If you drop | jq . from these commands it should work.

Hi Christian,

Thank you for the reply.

Unfortunately, another problem has.
There is an error that the account clearly has admini permission but cannot be accessed.

{"errors":[{"context":null,"message":"You are not permitted to access this resource","exceptionName":"com.atlassian.bitbucket.AuthorisationException"}]}

What did I miss here? It is questionable whether it is possible in a Windows environment.

Hi Levi,

I suppose you're trying to export from a Windows-based Bitbucket Server (not Data Center) instance? That should definitely work. Are you sure you are using a System Administrator account for this?

Yes.

Bitbucket v7.8.0 / server 50 Users: Commercial License.

And 'admin' is bitbucket admin account. It login well from bitbucket instance.

Additionally, the reason why I need this is to migrate Bitbucket to another instance.(need pull request and comment history, etc)

Thank you

The -n option was the cause. The parameter is removed, so it works fine.

It was fine in a Linux environment, but it won't work in Windows if you have that parameter.
