How to create project in bit bucket using bit bucket REST API?

[Vaasanthi]

We are trying to create projects in bit bucket automatically.

Tried the following  options and it didn't work. can some one guide?

1. curl -k -X POST --user UID:PWD "https://bitbucket.example.com/context/rest/api/1.0/projects" -d "name=vptest"

2. curl -X POST -v -u UID:PWD "https://bitbucket.example.com/projects" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"scm": "git", "is_private": "true", "fork_policy": "no_public_forks"}'

3. curl-k -X POST --user "UID:PWD" https://bitbucket.example.com/rest/api/1.0/projects?name='test_project'

Hi Vaasanthi,

You can use this python api.

https://pypi.python.org/pypi/stashy/0.3

pip install stashy

import stashy

bitbucket = stashy.connect(host, user, pass)
bitbucket.projects.create("TEST", "Test")

I am able to create a project in Bibucket server using this API:

curl -D- -u username:Password -d "{ \"key\": \"PRA\", \"name\": \"My project\", \"description\": \"My First project through API\" }" -H "C
ontent-Type: application/json" http://servername:7990/rest/api/1.0/projects

I have a similar request

curl -D- -u username:Password -d "{ \"key\": \"PRA\", \"name\": \"My project VVP\", \"description\": \"My First project through API\" }" -H "Content-Type: application/json" https://bitbucketexample.com/rest/api/1.0/projects

*https://bitbucketexample.com replaced with my URL.

but i got an error

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

I am a admin, so what is missing here.
