Is there a way to know the email address used to create a workspace?

Francisco Zarabozo February 14, 2025

I've been working for some years with a certain workspace, which is not the one in question.

I remembered I had created another workspace called "supercosto" a few years ago. But I couldn't find it in my account. So, I tried adding it, and the system response was that the workspace is already an existing one. And yes, it's here:

https://bitbucket.org/supercosto

I'm pretty sure I created it, and it was probably from a different account. I just can't remember which email address I could've used for that account, so I can't even try a recover password option.

I manage too many domain names and I also host their email server. If I could know at least which domain name is associated to the email address used to create that workspace, I could then probably recover it.

I just haven't found how I can do that, if that's even possible.

I can't directly contact support because I'm on a free account. Is there something I can do to reciver that account? I'd really like not to lose that workspace name.

Welcome @Francisco Zarabozo 

You can try with https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/bitbucket/rest/api-group-workspaces/#api-group-workspaces

But from this documentation there isn't a mentioning about retrieving the email address.

Hi @Nikola Perisic,

Thanks! I tried it, but seems like it will only let you see workspaces you own. I first tried with one in my account and I got full info on it. But when I tried with "supercosto", I got this:

403 Forbidden
{
error => { message => "You do not have access to view this workspace." },
type => "error",
}

It makes sense only to view the workspaces you own,otherwise it would be a security issue.
