Bitbucket cloud api run pullrequest pipeline build

[Alexandr Marchenko]

Docs missing example of how to run pipeline for a pull request.

Something like:

curl -X POST -s -H "Authorization: Bearer $access_token" -H "Content-Type: application/json" "https://api.bitbucket.org/2.0/repositories/$USERNAME/$REPOSITORY/pipelines/" -d '{ "target": { "type": "pipeline_pullrequest_target", "source": "feature/foo", "destination": "master" } }'

Returning:

{"code": 500, "message": "There was an error processing your request. It has been logged (ID 881d1e9798f2e21f)."}

 wondering if anyone were able to run pipeline for a pullrequest

Hi @Alexandr Marchenko

You can definitely run a pipeline for pull request. Those get triggered automatically on any existing Pull Request updates, but if you rerun any of existing one you can see what the expected parameters are. It doesn't seem to be documented so you'd have to try few combinations to find required parameters.

I've managed to trigger new PR pipeline with similar structure:

{
  "target": {
    "type": "pipeline_pullrequest_target",
    "source": {BRANCH},
    "destination": "master",
    "destination_commit": {
      ...
    },
    "pullrequest": {
      ...
    },
    "selector": {
      "type": "pull-requests",
      "pattern": "**"
    },
    "commit": {
      ...
    }
  }
}

Thanks,
Peter

What do you mean by "but if you rerun any of existing one you can see what the expected parameters are"? How to see them?
