Restrict repository settings changes in Bitbucket

Bitbucket offers a project-level setting to control changes to repository settings. You can manage this using the Bitbucket CLI. Here’s how to do it.

Settings options

• Allow repository admins to manage permissions.
  This is the default setting and allows repository administrators to modify permissions.

• Don’t allow repository admins to manage permissions.
  This setting restricts repository administrators from modifying permissions.

To set restrictions on repository settings using the command-line interface, follow these steps:

1. Allow repository admins to manage permissions:

   acli mybitbucket -a renderRequest --project EXPERIMENT --requestType DELETE --url "/rest/api/latest/projects/@project@/settings-restriction?namespace=com.atlassian.bitbucket.server%3Ainternal&featureKey=repository-permissions" --type json

2. Restrict repository admins from managing permissions:

   acli mybitbucket -a renderRequest --project EXPERIMENT --requestType POST --url /rest/api/latest/projects/@project@/settings-restriction --type json --data '{"namespace":"com.atlassian.bitbucket.server:internal","featureKey":"repository-permissions"}'
