BitBucket API Post MERGED pull-request

[Sharon Bamani]

Is there a way to POST MERGED pull-request?

This is what I tried, but it didn't work:

This is my curl command:

curl -H 'Authorization: Bearer ************' -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST https://stash.sd.comp.com/rest/api/1.0/projects/MYPROJ/repos/MergeTest/pull-requests -d @./MigrateFiles/MergeTest/361807.json

This is the json file:

{
    "title": "one more dream",
    "description": "(created by ABA) ",
    "state": "MERGED",
    "open": false,
    "closed": true,
    "fromRef": {
    "id": "refs/heads/mergedpull",
    "repository": {
    "slug": "MergeTest",
    "name": null,
    "project": {
       "key": "MYPROJ"
       }
    }
 },
 "toRef": {
    "id": "refs/heads/master",
    "repository": {
    "slug": "MergeTest",
    "name": null,
    "project": {
       "key": "MYPROJ"
     }
   }
 },
 "reviewers": [
 {
    "user": {
      "name": "sbamani"
    }
 }
 ]
}




It does creates the pull-request but it creates it OPEN:
{"id":14,"version":0,"title":"one more dream","description":"(created by ABA)","state":"OPEN","open":true,"closed":false,


Thanks,
Sharon

Hey Sharon!

The concept of creating a Pull Request is to be able to perform a review of the code. So it's not possible to create and merge at the same time a PR.

You can create a PR and merge it by REST API's on separate steps. The endpoints to perform these actions are the below:

1. create a PR
2. Merge a PR

The need came because we were migrating from gitlab and we wanted to keep the PR info.

Is there a better way to do it?

Hello Sharon

In order to move repositories, you will need to follow the steps in the Importing code from an existing project documentation.

This will keep your commit history, but not things such as comments. We still have an open feature request for this BSERV-4586.

You may also want to check out the following Atlassian Answers posts for more details. Some customers have designed scripts to automate this:

@Rodrigo M: Thanks above info. API documentation must include this information. API doc making an airhead.
