Bitbucket integration#

The Bitbucket integration incorporates Codacy on your existing Git provider workflows by reporting issues and the analysis status directly on your pull requests.

When you add a new repository, Codacy sets the Bitbucket integration using the default settings for your organization. You can then customize the settings for the repository.

Important

Codacy uses the Bitbucket user who added the repository to create comments on pull requests. If that user loses access to the repository, a repository admin must refresh the Bitbucket integration.

Configuring the Bitbucket integration#

To configure the Bitbucket integration, open your repository Settings, tab Integrations.

Depending on the options that you enable, Codacy will automatically update pull requests on Bitbucket with extra information when accepting pull requests.

Tip

You can apply the default Git provider integration settings to all repositories to ensure that your repositories all share the same settings.

Status checks#

Adds a report to your pull requests showing whether your pull requests and coverage are up to standards or not as configured on the quality gate rules for your repository. You can then optionally block merging pull requests that aren't up to standards.

Important

To get a status for coverage you must also:

AI-Enhanced Comments#

Adds AI-enhanced comments with insights to help you fix identified issues.

Note

  • This feature is compatible with most programming languages and requires no additional setup.
  • Comments are generated using the description of the static analysis issue, information about the tool that detected the issue, and a few lines of surrounding code to provide the AI with extra context and improve its accuracy.
  • This feature leverages the OpenAI API. No information is shared with other third parties or used to train AI models. Please refer to the OpenAI API data usage policies for more information.

Refreshing the Bitbucket integration#

If the user who added the repository to Codacy loses access to the repository, which may happen when the user leaves the team or the organization, Codacy won't be able to create comments on pull requests.

In this situation, another user with administrator access to the repository needs to refresh the Bitbucket integration:

Tip

Use a dedicated service account to integrate Codacy with your repositories. This prevents disruption of service if the user who originally enabled the integration loses access to the repositories, which may happen when a user leaves the team or the organization.

For more information and instructions on how to set up a dedicated service account see Why did Codacy stop commenting on pull requests?

  1. Open the repository Settings, tab Integrations.

  2. On the Bitbucket integration area, click the link Refresh connection.

    Refresh Bitbucket integration

After refreshing the integration, Codacy will use the logged in Bitbucket user to create comments on new pull requests.
