Integrating Bitbucket and Slack via API

[Noa Schvartz]

Hey :)
I'm writing a python script that creates and configures the bitbucket repositories in a certain workspace for my team, using the Bitbucket Cloud API.

Part of our configuration is adding some slack notifications, and until now we configured it like you mentioned in your documentation here https://support.atlassian.com/bitbucket-cloud/docs/integrate-bitbucket-cloud-with-slack/ 

To my understanding (fix me if i'm wrong) this configuration is different than the traditional webhook configuration, as written in the above link and as seen in the UI, but it seems like the API does not support it (used this API doc)

My team and I would like to get some guidance for how to handle this, assuming we don't want to continue creating the integration manually; should we use the API and add slack as a webhook? will this method be out of support sometime?

Thanks in advance!

Hi Noa,

Can you please clarify the exact behaviour you are trying to achieve? Are you trying to use the API to trigger a slack notification?

The recommended method for integrating Slack notifications is via the documentation you've provided.

Cheers!
