Bitbucket Add POST HOOK using API

Question

I can see that it is possible to add a git hook to Bitbucket in the interface like so:

Is it possible to add a POST hook like this using Bitbucket's API instead of using the web interface? Is it possible to remove an existing hook using the API?

Answer 1

services resource might help you.

Create a POST service example:

curl -u tutorials:8798987 -X POST https://api.bitbucket.org/1.0/repositories/tutorials/testrepo/services/ -d "type=POST&URL=https%3A%2F%2Fbitbucket.org/post"

This will create a new POST hook with https://bitbucket.org/post as URL:

{
    "id": 5,
    "service": {
        "fields": [
            {
                "name": "URL",
                "value": "https://bitbucket.org/post"
            }
        ],
        "type": "POST"
    }
}
