Create a repository

Creates a new repository.

Note: In order to set the project for the newly created repository, pass in either the project key or the project UUID as part of the request body as shown in the examples below:

$ curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{
    "scm": "git",
    "project": {
        "key": "MARS"
    }
}' https://api.bitbucket.org/2.0/repositories/teamsinspace/hablanding

or

$ curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{
    "scm": "git",
    "project": {
        "key": "{ba516952-992a-4c2d-acbd-17d502922f96}"
    }
}' https://api.bitbucket.org/2.0/repositories/teamsinspace/hablanding

The project must be assigned for all repositories. If the project is not provided, the repository is automatically assigned to the oldest project in the workspace.

Note: In the examples above, the workspace ID teamsinspace, and/or the repository name hablanding can be replaced by UUIDs.

Request body

full_namestring

The concatenation of the repository owner's username and the slugified name, e.g. "evzijst/interruptingcow". This is the same string used in Bitbucket URLs.
