Qodo works natively with Bitbucket Cloud, using a dedicated service 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.

  • 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 Bitbucket account to use as a Qodo service account (for example, qodo@yourcompany.com).
