How do I connect the Microsoft Teams to Bitbucket Server or Data Center?

You can use Microsoft Teams Bitbucket Connector by Move Work Forward in two ways:

  • Uni-directional. With the uni-directional way all data is stored in your Bitbucket's database, and you use Incoming Webhook Connector in Microsoft Teams to receive notifications, alerts and reports in a particular Microsoft Teams channel directly from Bitbucket. You cannot interact with those cards in Microsoft Teams, because data flows only one way from Bitbucket to Microsoft Teams. This way is the most secure and provides you with more control over your data that sent outside. The messages are going from your Bitbucket Server to Microsoft Teams servers directly.
  • Bi-directional. Two-way communication enables data flow in both directions, and not only your team can receive data in Microsoft Teams from Bitbucket, but also send data to Bitbucket from Microsoft Teams. Such integration permits more different flows where users can perform some actions in Bitbucket directly from Microsoft Teams. This way requires to have two apps: a Bitbucket App/plugin and another is a Microsoft Teams app. The main complexity here is to map user accounts between Microsoft Teams and Bitbucket. The user mapping stored in Move Work Forward secure cloud environment on AWS.

Do you have architecture documented about your 2-way integration?

Yes, it is here.

How do I revoke my access in Bitbucket?

To revoke the access, you need to uninstall the Microsoft Teams companion App and in the global settings, execute a disconnect action.

Does the app store Bitbucket login details I have entered?

Microsoft Teams Bitbucket Connector does not receive or store your credentials.

We use Bitbucket Server / Data, and we are curious whether the App stores our information somewhere outside our Bitbucket?

If you use uni-directional (incoming webhooks) integration Microsoft Teams Bitbucket Connector for Bitbucket Server or Data Center, Microsoft Teams Bitbucket Connector does not store anything outside of your Bitbucket instance(s).

Otherwise, Microsoft Teams Bitbucket Connector stores the following information:

  • the mapping between your Bitbucket and Microsoft Teams tenants
  • the mapping between Bitbucket account and Microsoft Teams account

Microsoft Teams Bitbucket Connector persists this information to act-on-behalf of Microsoft Teams user.

Could I use the Microsoft Teams Bitbucket Connector without Bitbucket admin rights?

Definitely yes, you can use Microsoft Teams Bitbucket Connector without being the Bitbucket administrator. However, you may need some help from your Bitbucket administrator to configure the application in some circumstances.

Does everyone within the Microsoft Teams channel see the data I am sharing via Microsoft Teams Bitbucket Connector?

When the team members reside in a Microsoft Teams channel, they can view all data posted in there.

I do not receive notifications from Microsoft Teams Bitbucket connector for Bitbucket Server / Data Center.

When you have problems with Microsoft Teams Bitbucket Connector not sending messages to Microsoft Teams you can try the following:

  • Create a test channel in Microsoft Teams
  • Create an Incoming Webhook URL
  • Create a test project in Bitbucket
  • Setup the most straightforward rule possible on pull request commented events without any additional filters. Use the Incoming Webhook URL you created earlier.
  • In your test Bitbucket project create an issue and comment it straight away.

If after those steps you do not receive a notification in Microsoft Teams, it is possible that your Bitbucket server(s) cannot reach the Internet and Microsoft servers. The easiest way to test this is to open the terminal on your Bitbucket server and try to post a test message directly to Microsoft Teams https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/platform/webhooks-and-connectors/how-to/connectors-using#setting-up-a-custom-incoming-webhook

As a next step, we advise to follow up our documentation related to the troubleshooting and contact us with the log file.

How can I suggest an improvement?

Please contact us to discuss your requirements.

Only a small number of people within my team will be using the app. Am I able to purchase a license for only these people?

When purchasing an app license, the user tier must match that of Atlassian Bitbucket. This is a requirement of the Atlassian Marketplace, as detailed in this Atlassian FAQ. Atlassian handles all licensing for Marketplace vendors so we can focus on what is important to us - providing quality software and supporting our customers. As a result, we are unable to modify the licensing to be restricted to specific user groups within a Bitbucket instance.

I purchased a license for the wrong Move Work Forward app, could you please switch my licenses?

All licensing matters are handled directly through Atlassian, so, unfortunately, there is nothing we can do as vendors to rectify this. Please reach out to sales@atlassian.com and open a ticket directly with Atlassian, they will be able to resolve this for you.

Where do I find my Bitbucket Id?

The Bitbucket Id imprinted on the Global Configuration page in the System settings. Bitbucket Id used to map Microsoft Teams and Bitbucket tenants.

How can I enable the debug mode for Microsoft Teams BitbucketConnector Server or Data Center?

For Bitbucket Cloud you will have to contact our responsive support and for Bitbucket Server and Data Center you can follow Microsoft Teams Bitbucket Connector user's guide.

Where do you store your data in Cloud?

We store data in our secure environment in AWS in the USA. If you have issues with this, please reach out. We are in progress to add additional regions: Frankfurt and Sydney.
