Using the Bitbucket datacenter Rest API, can I pull projects by name starts with a letter?

[Richard Houde]

I am wanting to pull projects from Bitbucket datacenter using the Rest API and would like pull by alphabetical character like all projects that start with an A

Hi Richard

With the project picker endpoint you can searh for projects starting with a certain letter.

Documentation

Example:

https://jira.atlassian.com/rest/api/2/projects/picker?query=b

I hope this helps!

Thank you Charlie, I will give it a whirl.

Hi Richard?

Did it work for you?

Please mark the answer as accepted to close this question if it has been resolved :-)

Hey Charlie. That endpoint was for Jira unfortunately and not Bitbucket so it did not work.

[Charlie Misonne]

Oh I'm so sorry. I have no idea why I thought it was about Jira.
Probably because I answered a Jira question just before :-)

Anyway: there is no way to filter for Bitbucket projects starting with a certain letter via the API.

There is an endpoint to list all projects: https://developer.atlassian.com/server/bitbucket/rest/v902/api-group-project/#api-api-latest-projects-get

It returns an alphabetical list but you need to perform your own filtering to get the projects starting with an A only.

All good. Thanks for the help. I appreciate it
