Create a Bitbucket Repo with SSH through their API

https://confluence.atlassian.com/bitbucket/repository-resource-423626331.html

I'm looking at the API documentation in order to make a private repo with a shell script. I'd like to use SSH and not have to enter my username and password.

Is this possible at this point?

The Bitbucket REST API supports http(s), but not ssh. Git can work over ssh, but that's something entirely different from the Bitbucket API.

To update/retrieve private info in Bitbucket, you need to be authenticated. The options you have are either basic authentication with the credentials of a user with sufficient permissions (not what you want), or OAuth, which might be appropriate for you.

How to use OAuth is documented here.
