Is it possible to access the variables used for a custom pipeline via BitBucket API?

[Brenainn Moushall]

I'm running custom pipelines that take variables, and I'd like to be able to retrieve the {key:  val} pairs for the variables when fetching a pipeline from the API.

I can see that there's endpoints for repository, workspace and environment variables, but I need the key-value pairs specified when the pipeline is launched.

I've looked through the pipeline response from

GET /2.0/repositories/{workspace}/{repo_slug}/pipelines/{pipeline_uuid}

and step response from

GET /2.0/repositories/{workspace}/{repo_slug}/pipelines/{pipeline_uuid}/steps/{step_uuid}

and they don't seem to be included. Pipeline response does have a 'has_variables' boolean, but I'm not sure if this refers to the custom pipeline variables or other types.

Just want to know if this is possible, as I can work around it otherwise.

Cheers!

Hi @Brenainn Moushall,

I'm afraid that this is not possible with the pipeline or step endpoint.

The values of these variables are visible in the Pipelines log, in the "Build setup", which can be retrieved with the endpoint

GET /2.0/repositories/{workspace}/{repo_slug}/pipelines/{pipeline_uuid}/steps/{step_uuid}/log

You would then need to parse the log to get the value of each variable.

Kind regards,
