Set up instructions
Prerequisites:
You are a Sana Enterprise user – all third-party connectors except the Workday connector are available only for users on the Sana Enterprise tier.
Your Sana workspace owner has enabled this connector – if the workspace owner has disabled the connector it won't appear in the list of available connectors.
Step 1: Go to the connectors page in Sana
In Sana, click on your profile icon and name in the bottom left corner and select Connectors.
Step 2: Find Bitbucket in the list of available connectors
Scroll to the Available connectors section and locate Bitbucket.
Note: If you can't find a connector in this list, it means one of the following:
You've already connected it — check the ”Active connectors” section at the top of the connectors page, or
Your workspace owner has disabled this connector for your workspace — reach out to them for more information or to request that it be enabled.
Step 3: Hover the connector card and click the connect button
Hover the Bitbucket card and click the Connect button.
Tip: If you click the card itself instead of the Connect button, you'll open a connector detail page with more information about its capabilities.
Step 4: Initialize the Pipedream connection
When clicking Connect in the previous step, a pop-up will appear powered by Pipedream. Click the Continue button in the pop-up to initialize the set up.
Note: Sana uses Pipedream to connect your account. Pipedream is a Workday product, trusted by millions of people to keep their data secure.
Step 5: Sign in to Bitbucket and approve the requested scopes
You'll be redirected to Bitbucket to go through their OAuth flow. Sign in and approve the scopes Sana needs to operate the connector.
Step 6: Complete the set up
You've successfully connected your Bitbucket account. Click Continue to complete the setup and start using the connector.
Known limitations
Repositories: The connector can list repositories, but can't read their metadata.
Reading snippets: The connector can list snippets and add comments, but can't read the actual content of a snippet.
