Connect to Bitbucket Cloud

This page describes how to create connections to Bitbucket Cloud and create links to Bitbucket Cloud repositories. You can complete these tasks using the Google Cloud console, or the Google Cloud CLI.

These instructions are for application developers, platform administrators, and security managers who want to use Bitbucket Cloud source code repositories with Google. Specifically, you can use Bitbucket Cloud repositories with Gemini Code Assist.

To learn more about Developer Connect, see Developer Connect overview.

Before you begin

1. Sign in to your Google Account.

   If you don't already have one, sign up for a new account.

2. In the Google Cloud console, on the project selector page, select or create a Google Cloud project.

   Note: If you don't plan to keep the resources that you create in this procedure, create a project instead of selecting an existing project. After you finish these steps, you can delete the project, removing all resources associated with the project.

   Go to project selector

3. Make sure that billing is enabled for your Google Cloud project.

4. Enable the Developer Connect API.

   Enable the API

5. In the Google Cloud console, on the project selector page, select or create a Google Cloud project.

   Note: If you don't plan to keep the resources that you create in this procedure, create a project instead of selecting an existing project. After you finish these steps, you can delete the project, removing all resources associated with the project.

   Go to project selector

6. Make sure that billing is enabled for your Google Cloud project.

7. Enable the Developer Connect API.

   Enable the API

Enabling Developer Connect also enables the Secret Manager API.

8. Ensure that you have access to an account on Bitbucket Cloud.

   To help keep your team's work secure, we recommend that you complete the tasks in this guide using a bot account or an account shared by your team, not a personal account.

9. Ensure that you own a Bitbucket Cloud repository, or have admin-level permissions on a shared repository.
10. Optional: Create a customer-managed encryption key (CMEK) for encrypting the authentication secrets that Developer Connect creates.
11. Optional: To use the command-line instructions in this guide, complete the following steps:
    1. Install the Google Cloud CLI. If you've installed gcloud CLI previously, make sure you have the latest available version by running gcloud components update.
    2. Create a Developer Connect service account by running the following command, where PROJECT_ID is your Google Cloud project ID:

               gcloud beta services identity create \
                   --service=developerconnect.googleapis.com \
                   --project=PROJECT_ID
               

Required roles

To get the permissions that you need to create connections and links, ask your administrator to grant you the following IAM roles:

• If you aren't the project owner: Developer Connect Admin (roles/developerconnect.admin) on your user account
• If you plan to use a CMEK to encrypt the secrets that Developer Connect creates: Cloud KMS CryptoKey Encrypter/Decrypter (roles/cloudkms.cryptoKeyEncrypterDecrypter) on the Secret Manager Service Account
• If you plan to use the gcloud CLI steps in this guide: Secret Manager Admin role (roles/secretmanager.admin) on the Developer Connect Service Account

For more information about granting roles, see Manage access to projects, folders, and organizations.

You might also be able to get the required permissions through custom roles or other predefined roles.

Create access tokens

Create personal access tokens in Bitbucket Cloud by completing the following steps:

1. Sign in to Bitbucket Cloud.

2. Complete the following steps to create two access tokens in Bitbucket Cloud. These can be Repository Access Tokens, Project Access Tokens, or Workspace Access Tokens.

   1. Choose the instructions for the type of access token you will use:

      • Create Repository Access Tokens
      • Create Project Access Tokens
      • Create Workspace tokens

   2. Create the first token with the following scopes:

      • Repositories: read.
      • Pull Requests: read.
      • Webhooks: read and write.

      In Developer Connect, this is called your Authorizer access token.

   3. Create the second token with the following scope:

      • Repositories: read.

      In Developer Connect, this is called your Read access token.

   You are responsible for managing token lifetimes in Bitbucket Cloud. Bitbucket Cloud tokens have no expiry and will remain valid until you revoke them.

   Some types of Bitbucket tokens are premium features exclusively available in paid plans. For more information, see Bitbucket Cloud tokens.

3. Copy the access tokens for use in the following procedures.
