Event payload
When you have a webhook with an event, Bitbucket Data Center sends the event request to the server URL for the webhook whenever that event occurs. This page describes the structure of these requests.
For Bitbucket to send event payload requests for a webhook with HTTPS endpoints, make sure your URL has a valid SSL certificate that a public certificate authority has signed. Learn how to use self-signed certificates
The following payloads contain some of the common entity types – U
ser
