You can configure PR scans while creating a new Bitbucket Data Center App installation or for existing Bitbucket Data Center integrations. You must configure webhooks manually in your Bitbucket instance to scan your pull requests. See configure the webhook to learn more.
You can also choose to receive PR comments on your pull requests. After you configure PR comments, Endor Labs posts a comment on the pull request if any issues are detected during the PR scan. See Bitbucket Data Center PR comments for more information.
Create an HTTP access token
To enable PR scans and PR comments, you must provide an HTTP access token with at least write access for Repositories and read access for Projects.
To create an HTTP access token:
-
Sign in to your Bitbucket Data Center instance and create an HTTP access token.
-
When creating the token, ensure you select the following permissions:
- Projects: Read
- Repository: Write
-
Copy the generated token and store it in a secure location. You need it when configuring the Bitbucket Data Center integration in Endor Labs.
Configure PR scans during a Bitbucket Data Center App installation
After you complete the initial installation of the Bitbucket Data Center App in Endor Labs, you can configure PR scans. At this point, the Bitbucket Data Center App will be operational.
You can also choose to apply PR scans to specific repositories rather than all the projects through a scan profile. See Configure PR scans for specific repositories for more information.
-
Toggle Enable Pull Request Scans and Expand Webhook Configuration on Bitbucket’s UI to view the webhook settings required to configure a webhook in your Bitbucket Data Center project. See configure the webhook for PR scans for manual setup instructions.
-
Optionally, toggle Post comments on Pull Request to allow Endor Labs to comment on PRs for policy violations. You must configure an action policy to view the PR comments.
When you enable PR comments, Endor Labs posts a comment on the pull request if any issues are detected during the PR scan. See Bitbucket Data Center PR comments for more information.
-
Optionally, expand Advanced Options and toggle Enable Full Scan with reachability for scans with dependency resolution, reachability analysis, and call graph generation for supported languages. Full scans provide total visibility but may take longer to complete.
By default, a quick scan is performed which provides rapid visibility into potential vulnerabilities for faster merges.
-
Select the checkbox Yes, I understand PR scans work only after the Webhook is set up correctly to acknowledge the webhook requirement.
-
Click Save.
Once the webhooks are set up in your Bitbucket Data Center projects, Endor Labs automatically runs a PR scan whenever a pull request is opened or updated.
Configure PR scans for existing Bitbucket Data Center integrations
You can configure PR scans for existing Bitbucket Data Center integrations or after creating a new Bitbucket Data Center integration.
-
Sign in to Endor Labs and select Integrations from the left sidebar.
-
Click Manage in Bitbucket Data Center under Source Control Managers.
-
Click the three dots menu next to the Bitbucket Data Center integration that you want to update.
-
Select Edit Integration.
-
Select Pull Request Settings in Integration Settings.
-
Toggle Enable Pull Request Scans.
-
Expand Webhook Configuration on Bitbucket’s UI to configure the webhook in Bitbucket. See configure the webhook for PR scans to learn more.
-
Optionally, toggle Post comments on Pull Request to allow Endor Labs to comment on PRs for policy violations. You must configure an action policy to view the PR comments.
When you enable PR comments, Endor Labs posts a comment on the pull request if any issues are detected during the PR scan. See Bitbucket Data Center PR comments for more information.
-
Optionally, under the Advanced section, you can toggle Enable Full scan with reachability.
-
Select the checkbox Yes, I understand PR scans work only after the Webhook is set up correctly to acknowledge the webhook requirement.
-
Click Save.
The changes are applied from the next scanning cycle.
Configure the webhook on the Bitbucket Data Center’s UI
After you enable PR scans in Endor Labs, you must configure a webhook in your Bitbucket Data Center instance to allow Endor Labs to receive pull request events. Ensure that you have Project admin permissions in your Bitbucket Data Center instance to configure the webhook.
-
Sign in to your Bitbucket Data Center instance and navigate to your project.
-
Create a project level webhook. You can also click the link provided by Endor Labs to go to your project’s webhooks page.
-
Enter the following details and configure the webhook in your Bitbucket instance.
- Name: Name of the webhook.
- URL: Enter the webhook URL.
- Secret Token: The secret token from Endor Labs.
Copy the values from the Endor Labs user interface. Do not modify other fields on the Bitbucket webhook form.
-
Under Events, enable only the following Pull request event triggers. Ensure that all other triggers disabled.
- Opened
- Modified
- Source Branch Updated
- Merged
- Click Save.
Configure PR scans for specific repositories
You can configure PR scans and PR comments only for specific repositories. If you select the option to configure PR scans in your Bitbucket Data Center App integration, pull requests for all the repositories in your projects are scanned. Instead, you can choose to configure PR scans and PR comments for selected repositories using scan profiles.
-
Enable PR scans and PR comments during the initial Bitbucket Data Center App installation. This ensures that the webhooks are properly configured and recognized by Endor Labs.
-
Edit the Bitbucket Data Center App integration and disable Pull Request Scans and Pull Request Comments. This prevents PR scans from running for all repositories in the projects, while retaining the webhook settings in Endor Labs to listen for PR events from the repositories you select through the scan profile.
-
Create a scan profile with Pull Request Scans and optionally Pull Request Comments enabled under Developer Workflow.
-
Associate the scan profile with the specific repository where you want PR scans to run.
This approach allows you to control which repositories have PR scans enabled while ensuring that the webhook is properly configured during the initial installation.
Bitbucket Data Center PR comments
PR comments are automated comments added to pull requests when Endor Labs detects policy violations or security issues during scans. When a PR is raised or updated, Endor Labs runs scans on the proposed changes and adds a comment if any violations are detected based on the configured action policies.
After you enable PR comments, you need to set up an action policy to allow comments to be posted on pull requests.
Configure action policy for PR comments
PR comments template
Endor Labs provides a default template for PR comments that you can use out-of-the-box. You can also create custom templates using Go Templates.
The following section shows the default template for PR comments.
