Can Bitbucket Server limit the size of message content in Slack plugins?

[Sung Hyun Ryu]

Hello~

My customer is using the Slack plugin installed on their Bitbucket Server.

My client wants to limit the sending of too much content when an event occurs on Bitbucket.

So I found the "slack.addon.unfurl.file.max.lines" option in the path below, and entered slack.addon.unfurl.file.max.lines=3 in bitbucket.properties, but it does not apply.

Is bitbucket.properties the correct setting place or is the setting correct? Or I'm wondering if I need to set it up somewhere else.

Thank you.

Hey @Sung Hyun Ryu,

slack.addon.unfurl.file.max.lines should be set as an environment variable passed to the Bitbucket Server process. It should limit the size of repository file previews, when someone pastes a link to a source code in slack.

If that's not what you are looking for, there's also an option when configuring channel notifications for repositories. While creating or editing a connection between a channel and a repository, you can chose between Basic and Extended verbosity. Switching to Basic should reduce the amount of space notifications take in Slack.

Hope that helps. Cheers!
