recently I found that I can use Rest Api Bitbucket to download repositories. I read the docs, but so far I didn't manage to download any files, but some HTTP headers using curl.

Can someone give me a concrete example on how to use the API?

I understand that the command is curl https://api.bitbucket.org/2.0/repositories/, but my bitbucket links is something like this

http://company repository site/projects/project/repos/repo/

UPDATE 1

**

I managed to download a file using curl using the syntax: curl -u user:pass http://company_repository_site/projects/my_project/repos/my_repo/my_file.ext?raw but I would still like to know how can this be done using the REST Api

**

Thanks, Daniel.

In the end, I used

curl -u user:pass `bitbucketCompanyServer`/rest/api/1.0/projects/`project`/repos/`repository`/browse/`fullPathToFileOnBitbucket`?at=`commit` > output

Hope this helps

As of May 2024, the option to use an SSH key to download files from the Bitbucket downloads section is still not implemented. The workaround provided by Daniel does not work as they changed the API. The following example works for me:

curl -LO --request GET --url https://api.bitbucket.org/2.0/repositories/{YOUR_WORKSPACE}/{YOUR_REPO}/downloads/{YOUR_FILE_NAME} --header 'Authorization: Bearer YOUR-REPO-ACCESS-TOKEN'

Note that in this case, the token is generated at the repository level because, for workspace-level access, you would need a premium account. Here is the official BitBucket documentation.
