Bitbucket create PR API request timing out

We've suddenly started seeing time-outs on our API-based PR creation requests in Bitbucket. I'm able to create a PR in the UI, but any attempt to do so via API results in a 504 Gateway Time-out.

We're on the free tier of Bitbucket, so I cannot submit an issue to them... Are any other Bitbucket users here experiencing this?

Request:

Endpoint: https://api.bitbucket.org/2.0/repositories/{workspace}/{repo-slug}/pullrequests

{
  "title": "Staging merge to Release Candidate",
  "source": {
    "branch": {
      "name": "staging"
    }
  },
  "destination": {
    "branch": {
      "name": "release-candidate"
    }
  }
}

Response:

<head>
    <title>504 Gateway Time-out</title>

        <h1>504 Gateway Time-out</h1>

Solution

  • The bitbucket API endpoint https://api.bitbucket.org/2.0/repositories/{workspace}/{repo-slug}/pullrequests currently returns an 504 Gateway Time-Out when there aren't any code changes between two branches.

    Do you have changes between the branches staging and release-candidate?
