How to find Bitbucket Account UUID?

Question

Since bitbucket no longer supported the use of username. We must instead use User uuid for accessing the bitbucket api's.

Answer 1

You can make a GET request for a repository that you own and see your UUID listed under the owner attribute:

curl https://api.bitbucket.org/2.0/repositories/1team/moxie

Or you could possibly make a GET request for all team members of a team you're a part of and see their UUID's there

curl https://api.bitbucket.org/2.0/teams/1team/members

Answer 2

1. Inspect your https://bitbucket.org/account/settings/
2. Search "uuid" in your browser inspector element
3. Enjoy your personal information (including uuid)

Answer 3

I can't believe it could be this hard to get my own UUID. The way i fixed it was to create a public repo and then run this curl command

curl https://api.bitbucket.org/2.0/repositories/<bitbucketusername>/testrepo

the ouput contained my UUID. I then obviously deleted the unsafe public repo.
