Warning
Atlassian intends to end sale and support of Bitbucket Server. The connector will not be supported beyond the end of sale date but will be available until the server is decommissioned.
There are a number of use cases for the connector:
-
Project managers can add files directly to projects from an online repository.
-
Set up the submitter portal to allow Submitters to add files to requests directly from the online repository.
-
Use automated project creation (APC) to have new projects automatically created when a change in file size is detected in monitored files or a folder.
-
Selected files are imported the very first time APC runs. All files are imported when a folder is monitored.
-
Use the Git connector if you need to monitor an entire subdirectory.
-
This connector supports absolute path setting. Target translation files can be stored only in the same branch as the source file.
-
-
Set up continuous jobs to have selected files monitored for changes.
Tip
If requirements are:
-
Limiting Phrase access to a single repository.
-
Using an SSH key for authentication.
-
Monitoring an entire subdirectory for a change in Automated Project Creation.
-
Detection of file changes based on Last modified date as opposed to just file size.
