Create Tag using bitbucket rest api fails

[Tejas Shah]

Hi 

I am trying to use the bitbucket rest api to create a tag in bitbucket. However I am getting the error

curl -X POST -k -H 'Authorization: Basic <<Authentication String>>' -i 'https://api.bitbucket.org/2.0/repositories/lv_digital/code-commerce/refs/tags' --data '{
 "name":"5.17.0-eco-05",
 "target":{
 "hash":"eda5e9c5565c8b56b55672fc21e20068116df84b"
 }
 } '

I get the following error 

{"type": "error", "error": {"fields": {"": "expected a dictionary"}, "message": "Bad request"}}

I am unable to figure out anything wrong with the request.  

Regards

Tejas

Hi @Tejas Shah,
I'm not an expert with the Bitbucket API. But as I have understood and the knowledge with this link code seems to be correct.

https://developer.atlassian.com/bitbucket/api/2/reference/resource/repositories/%7Busername%7D/%7Brepo_slug%7D/refs/tags#post

How about trying with the GET method as in the documentation.

(If it is an option for you in your case only. I mean if not you need this to be exactly on POST method)
