Qodo works natively with Bitbucket Cloud, using a Qodo Bitbucket account to post code review comments on pull requests. It relies on Bitbucket webhooks and native pull request workflows to deliver automated insights. You can configure Qodo for selected repositories or across your entire Bitbucket workspace. Configuration typically takes around 5 minutes. Once installed, Qodo automatically processes pull requests and delivers actionable insights, such as code reviews, descriptions, and improvement suggestions, directly within your Bitbucket workflow.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure you have:
  • Access to your Qodo portal.
  • A Qodo environment set up for Bitbucket Cloud. If you’re unsure of your environment type, contact your Qodo Account Manager.
  • System administrator access to your Bitbucket workspace.
  • A dedicated email address to use for the Qodo Bitbucket account (for example, qodo@yourcompany.com). The account is created during the installation wizard.

Before you begin

You must have system administrative access in your Bitbucket workspace to complete the setup.

Complete the following steps in Bitbucket:
1

Invite user

Go to Workspace settings → User groups, open Add workspace members, and enter the Qodo email address.
2

Create account

Accept the invitation email to create the Qodo Bitbucket account.
3

Log in with Qodo to Bitbucket

Log in to Bitbucket using the Qodo account credentials.
Back in the wizard, select the Confirm Bitbucket Qodo account creation checkbox, then click Next.

Requirements
  • The Qodo user must be a Bitbucket workspace admin or repo admin to complete the installation.
  • The Qodo user must be logged in to your Bitbucket workspace.

Add workspace access token (optional)

This step is optional. Skip it to keep using the previously authorized Bitbucket account. If a workspace access token is already saved and this field is left empty, it’s replaced with the authorized account.
If you’re using Bitbucket Cloud Premium, you can add a workspace access token instead. It’s recommended for workspaces with many repositories: it gives Qodo higher API limits and reduces the chance of Bitbucket rate limiting or blocking requests.

Create a workspace access token in Bitbucket.
  1. Sign in as the Qodo user created during installation.
  2. Go to Workspace settings → Security → Access tokens.
  3. Create a token with Repositories, Pull requests, and Webhooks access.
See How to create a workspace access token.Then, back in the wizard, fill in:
  • Workspace access token (optional): Paste the token you created.
  • Expires on (optional): Add the token’s expiry date. Bitbucket doesn’t expose this date. Enter it here to get a warning before reviews stop. Qodo can’t renew the token automatically.
  • Click Continue to proceed.

Select repositories

Select the repositories for Qodo to review.
Bitbucket installation wizard showing Select repositories step with workspace and repository tree
Use the search bar to find specific repositories, or browse by workspace and project. You can select individual repositories or an entire workspace.
  • Click Setup to continue.
You can always add more repositories later by returning to this step.
6

Check connection

Qodo verifies the connection to each repository selected in the previous step.

Each selected repository is listed with its installation status.
  • Click Next to continue.
7

Setup complete

Qodo has been installed on your Bitbucket workspace. Repositories are fully connected and active within a few minutes.
Bitbucket installation wizard showing Setup complete screen with enabled repositories confirmation
The confirmation screen shows the number of repositories that will be active once the connection is finalized, and confirms that AI code review, auto rule generation, and codebase context are included.
  • Click Done to finish.
Qodo is set up for the selected repositories and becomes active once the connection is finalized. To add repositories, return to this wizard at any time and run a new installation with the updated scope. Repositories that already have Qodo installed are not available for selection. To reduce scope, remove the installation and create a new one.

Verify the installation

1
Open a new pull request in one of the connected repositories and confirm Qodo is triggered automatically.
2
Add a comment using one of the supported commands:
  • /agentic_describe
  • /agentic_review
Qodo should respond with a review or PR summary directly on the pull request.
