Unable to clone BitBucket repo created w/ MS credentials
Asked by SVH:

At my organization, we have a BitBucket app in MS Teams, and I used that to create a repo with my credentials. Because I'm logged into the Edge browser, my credentials are passed to BitBucket when I am passed from Teams to the website for my repo, and I do not have to use my e-mail and password. This is convenient, but I cannot clone the repo from another application (RStudio) because RStudio cannot authenticate via Edge. Instead, I encounter an Atlassian pop-up that prompts me for my credentials, but they will not work. Does anyone have experience using a repo that was created via an app (like MS Teams) that has an integration with BitBucket?

body: Hi [@SVH](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4163282) ,

If you need to clone a Bitbucket repo, you will need to use your Bitbucket username and password, your MS credentials will not work in this case.

If your account is a managed Bitbucket Cloud account, you will need to use an app-password instead of a password:

* <https://support.atlassian.com/bitbucket-cloud/docs/app-passwords/>

Could you please let me know, is this repo hosted in Bitbucket Cloud (<https://bitbucket.org/>) or Bitbucket Server (self-hosted instance) ?

Kind regards,  
Theodora

comments: author: SVH
body: Hi Theodora,

It is hosted in Bitbucket Cloud, not in a self-hosted instance.

Thank you for your help,

Sam


author: Theodora Boudale
body: Hi Sam,

Thank you for your reply and you're very welcome!

The first step here is finding out if your account is a managed or a non-managed one.

To do this, you can go to the following link (from a browser session where you are already logged in to your Bitbucket Cloud account):

* <https://id.atlassian.com/manage-profile/email>

If the account is managed, this page will include a warning message titled "Managed account". Otherwise, in case of a non-managed account, you'll see the option to change your account's email.

If your Bitbucket Cloud account is a ++non-managed account++, you should be able to clone/pull/push using either your Bitbucket account's password or an app-password:

* <https://support.atlassian.com/bitbucket-cloud/docs/app-passwords/>

Even if you never set a password for your Bitbucket Cloud account, you should be able to set one by requesting a password reset email via

* <https://id.atlassian.com/login/resetpassword>

If your Bitbucket Cloud account is ++managed++, then the account's password won't work for HTTPS authentication and you'll need to generate and use an app-password.

Please feel free to let me know if this works for you and if you need anything further.

Kind regards,  
Theodora

I had the same issue and I found this page.

My account is managed. I created the app password.

We want to share our idea settings in repo A. authentication using https is a must. I am admin. I have app password.

But it does not allow me to login using the username/app password or email/app password!

How to get project from .git folder
Asked by Alexander Goryushkin:

Good day everyone! I'm new to git and bitbucket, please help me with one question. I created a contract with one customer and he gave me access to bitbucket with a repository. I cloned this remote repository to my computer, but there is only a .gitignore file and a hidden .git folder with files. How can I unpack this project to my folder now? I would be very grateful if you can help


Answers:
author: Hana Ku?erov?
body: Hi [@Alexander Goryushkin](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4162823) ,

welcome to the Atlassian Community!

If you have already cloned the repository, there are no additional steps, you've got the whole copy of the remote repository.

If you are sure, there should be some code and you're not able to see it, probably it is in another branch (after the clone you probably see content of master or develop branch).

Maybe it will be the best to search through the remote repository in Bitbucket - what you are able to see in Branches and Commits sections to get the information, to which branch(es) your customer contributed.

Then when you find the right branch, switch (= checkout) to it locally.

Have you installed any GIT client?

comments: author: Alexander Goryushkin
body: Hello, Hana. Thank you for your help!

I have Sourcetree installed. And there are no other branches visible here. But the .git folder contains 50MB files. And in .git there is a folder 'objects\\pack', which contains the largest file with a 50MB extension .pack and a .idx file.  
But bitbucket has another branch, production. I'd rather ask the customer about all this :) Thanks for the help again

Database query
Asked by Vamsi Kandala:

Hi all,

This is related to PostgreSQL query question:

I am using the following query to fetch all the Confluence spaces which has the specified group having permissions.

SELECT distinct s.spacekey, s.spacename  
FROM SPACEPERMISSIONS sp  
JOIN SPACES s ON s.SPACEID = sp.SPACEID  
JOIN cwd_group g ON sp.PERMGROUPNAME = g.group_name  
JOIN cwd_membership m ON g.id = m.parent_id  
WHERE sp.permgroupname = '\<group name\>'  
GROUP BY s.spacekey, s.spacename  
ORDER BY s.spacename

This is working fine. I want to extend this query further and retrieve all the space admins for each of the above spaces separated by comma in another column.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,  
Vamsi


Answers:
author: Tommy Augustine
body: I don't have jira server, so I cannot play with this to help out. But it sounds like you need to embed another query within the third column that concatenates the result set of space admins for a given space name in the where clause.  

That's the best I can answer without playing with the query.

Control Edit To Confiform Fields
Asked by Chris Iacovelli:

I have 2 confiform form/tables:

1. holds a list of authors for a document
2. holds the descriptive information being captured, comments, date info, etc..

I would like to limit the edit capabilities of select fields in the second form/table to just the author(s) defined in the first form/table while allowing the other fields to be editable by the everyone.

I know I can specifically list editable users per field but this could shrink/grow based on the team of authors in play over the year.

Is there a way to drive the editable user listing for a field in second form/table the based on the entries in the first form/table, e.g., dynamically look them up?

Server/Data Center version 7.11.2 of Confluence is our install version.


Answers:
author: Alex Medved _ConfiForms_
body: Hi

Do you have these 2 forms connected through a smart field, for example?

Alex

comments: author: Chris Iacovelli
body: i do not. i will consider.

Thought it through, the intent is to have assigned authors to the page/document but not to individual entries. I do want to limit who can edit what at the field level by using the values in the author table to dynamically drive the "author only editable" fields.

Not sure smartlink will work here.


author: Alex Medved _ConfiForms_
body: You want to set edit restrictions on particular fields, right?

Let me demo this to you <http://recordit.co/ifX9KN3JVO>

Alex


author: Chris Iacovelli
body: I do want to add edit controls per field and understand how that is done. What i am trying to do is dynamically drive the editors to specific fields if they exist in another table. I'll take a look at the demo and let you know.

BOOM, that is it! I know there had to be a way to do it but I could not figure it out.


author: Chris Iacovelli
body: so close. i played with this over the weekend and this solution requires that i select the authors from the drop down vs have it auto-populate with the existing data from the authors table.

ideally i would like:

1. single entry for each author in the author form/table
2. single entry in the descriptive information form/table where certain fields are restricted to the list of authors contained in the author form/table

i will continue to play around with this and feel like i am close enough to taste it.

Is it possible? An active link to a computer disk
Asked by Silvija:

Hello, is it possible to load a live link to a folder on a computer disk in a confluence page?


Answers:
author: Andrii Maliuta
body: [@Silvija](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5136722) ,

It is a little bit tricky, as each machine exists in some network and depends on access to the outer worlds/internet. If the idea is to show the link to some common location, it can be OK to just set **Advanced**type link that can be copied and pasted to the OS explorer of the user.

It can be better to use some Web source (maybe some machine with open firewall access via IP or other way) and then set it as **WEB** link.

Aside from several thousands of 'active' users accounts, we just spotted that around 1900 accounts are 'deactivated', with no manual intervention from our side.

comments: author: Nicolas Casel
body: Many thanks for this clue [@Craig Nodwell](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3973516)

Indeed, around half of these accounts are LDAP-based, so they probably have been disabled in the LDAP first (and this is the 'trigger').

But other disabled accounts are 'externals' with common domains like gmail, yahoo.com, etc. In this case, what could be the cause of the deactivation ... ?


author: Craig Nodwell
body: check the group assignment in Jira then check the permissions for license assignment against that group. find what groups are required for license activation then find one of your externals and see what groups that person is in, verify they are in valid groups associated to license activation.

Can I have a single page and video play but stream multiple videos?
Asked by Eoin Curran:

Hi there,

I am hoping to be able to create a video library in confluence and rather than having a seperate page hosting each video, I am seeking solutions to the most effective way to manage this. All solutions welcome.

The library will be composed of 100s of videos and creating a singe page for each video does not seem to be the efficient method. Instead, I would like to have a media player than can update the video being played based on a link being clicked.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions/solutions.


Answers:
author: Darryl Lee
body: Hi [@Eoin Curran](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5124455), are you intending to upload all the videos on your Confluence server?

I don't think that will work, as I'm not aware of a way for Confluence to play different videos based on clicking certain links. That sounds like it would involve some fancy JavaScript programming, which Confluence doesn't really allow.

I would suggest a service like YouTube or Vimeo, which would give you the ability to embed a playlist of videos?

* [Youtube: Embed videos \& playlists](https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/171780?hl=en)
* [Vimeo: Embeddable playlists](https://vimeo.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115007991707-Embeddable-playlists)

I believe both of those should work with Confluence's [Iframe macro](https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/insert-the-iframe-macro/).

comments: author: Eoin Curran
body: Hi Daryl,

Thanks for your response on this. I thought this might be the case. The closest I was able to get was to use Microsoft Stream. You can create different channels and embed each channel using an iFrame. This allows multiple videos to be displayed on the page but ensures that only one player is used. Currently I am trying the Vimeo and Youtube options.

Thanks again for your help!

How can you keep the priority order of a Jira Filter Macro in a pdf export?
Asked by Jack Allen:

I have a bug reporting page set up in Confluence connected to Jira. I have a column for priority that I can toggle to show highest to lowest which works fine when I'm on the Confluence page, but after ordering the tables on the page and exporting to pdf, the items are not in priority order. Is there a way to maintain the ordering set on the confluence page so it reflects correctly in the report?

See below from the Confluence page and a Jira issue filter macro. I've clicked the 'P' to order the priority, showing the highest at the top. (I've removed the summary and names of colleagues)

![macro priority filter.jpg](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/237870i5A2DC04C3ACCF7DF/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "macro priority filter.jpg")

Below is a screen shot of the pdf export, which as you can see, removes the prioritisation ordering:
