This page describes the detailed steps on how to create a tunneled application link between the Bitbucket Datacenter instance and Jira Cloud.

環境

• Bitbucket Datacenter (these tests are performed on Bitbucket version 8.17.0)
• Jira Cloud

ソリューション

Step 1: Install Application tunnels on the Bitbucket server

We'll start off by following the steps for Bitbucket on this page: Install application tunnels from Atlassian Marketplace

Application tunnels are available in the cloud out of the box, but you need to install them in your self-managed instance.

• Go to Bitbucket Administration >> Find New Apps >> search for Application tunnels

• Click on the Install button, you'll see the below when it's downloaded and installed and ready to use.

• Refresh the page, you’ll now see Application tunnels under Administration >> SYSTEM on the left Menu.

Step 2: Configure required connections and upstream ports

We'll now follow the steps for Bitbucket on this page: Configure required connections and upstream ports.

Allow outgoing connections from your network

Allow outgoing connections on port 443:

To tunnel endpoint

When creating the tunnel, your self-managed instance needs to reach https://tunnel.services.atlassian.com, which is the tunnel endpoint on the cloud side.

You can verify that it does by running curl https://tunnel.services.atlassian.com/status -I. The request should return an error, which is the correct behavior.

To cloud products

When authorizing the application links as the last step of the procedure, your self-managed instance needs to reach your cloud products directly. The outgoing communication is not using the tunnel.

You don’t have to allow any incoming connections to your network or IP ranges.

HTTP コネクターとアップストリーム ポートを追加する

Stop your instance and then complete the following steps:

1. In your Bitbucket home directory, go to the shared directory and edit the bitbucket.properties file.

2. Add a connector and upstream port. Use a port number that isn't already used by any application in this instance. 

server.additional-connector.1.port=8081
plugin.secure.tunnel.upstream.port=8081

Remove HTTPS redirection

If you enabled SSL for your instance, you probably modified the configuration files to redirect traffic to HTTPS. Since the new connector is using HTTP, you need to revert these changes so the traffic isn’t redirected. Any traffic that passes through the tunnel will still be encrypted, but if some traffic is trying to reach your regular port on HTTP, it will no longer be redirected.

To remove the HTTPS redirection:

1. In your Bitbucket home directory, edit the bitbucket.properties file.

2. Remove the server.require-ssl property.

Step 3: Create an application tunnel to your self-managed instance

We will now follow the steps on this page: Create an application tunnel to your self-managed instance page.

An application tunnel connects your whole organization to a self-managed instance and can be used to forward application links from specific cloud products.

はじめる前に

• Make sure you’ve prepared your self-managed instance by completing the steps described in Install application tunnels from Atlassian Marketplace and Configure required connections and upstream ports.

• In admin.atlassian.com, you can create up to 100 tunnels, each going to a different self-managed instance. However, each self-managed instance can receive only one tunnel. You can still link multiple cloud products to this single tunnel.

• You’ll generate a security key for each tunnel. If you’d like to later regenerate it or set up the automatic key rotation by using APIs, see Regenerate security key and Set up automatic key rotation.

Create a tunnel from admin.atlassian.com

To create a tunnel from admin.atlassian.com:

1. Go to admin.atlassian.com, and select your organization.

2. [設定] > [アプリケーション トンネル] の順に移動します。

3. Click on the Create tunnel button

4. Go through the wizard to provide the details of your Bitbucket Server instance and generate the security key associated with your tunnel.

5. When you click on Next, you'll be redirected to a screen where you need to copy the security key to be entered in your Bitbucket server instance.

6. Add the key to your Bitbucket server instance. You can either choose to be redirected to your instance or copy the key and give it to the admin of this instance so they can add it manually.

Add the tunnel’s security key to your Bitbucket Server instance

To add the tunnel’s security key:

1. アプリケーション トンネルに移動します。

   • If you were redirected here from the cloud, you should already be on the right screen.

   • If you weren’t redirected, go to Administration > Application tunnel, and select Add security key.

2. セキュリティ キーを貼り付けて、ウィザードのステップに従います。

Your tunnel is created. Wait until its status changes to Connected. For more info on statuses, see Available statuses for application tunnels.

例

This is how a sample tunnel looks in your Bitbucket server instance:

Your tunnel is ready, now you need to make your Jira cloud use it by creating a tunneled application link.

Step 4: Create a tunneled application link

Following the steps on the Create a tunneled application link page.

A tunneled application link allows you to select an existing application tunnel that will be used to forward the traffic to the target instance, as opposed to a direct link where you use the URL of the target instance. You can create a tunneled application link only from your cloud product.

Create a tunneled application link in Jira Cloud

To create a tunneled application link:

1. Go to the Jira Cloud UI and Administration >> Products >> Application links page. This is different from admin.atlassian.com, each product has its own administration.

2. Click on the Create link button:

3. On the Create link screen, select the Tunneled application link option, and then choose the application tunnel from the dropdown that is connected to your Bitbucket server instance. Next, click on Continue.

4. On the Confirm URLs screen, check the URLs and confirm them. Application URL should show the URL of the tunnel, and Display URL the base URL of your Bitbucket server instance. Click on Continue:

5. On the Review link screen, you’ll see the details of the products you’re connecting:

6. When you click on Continue, you’ll be redirected to the Bitbucket Server and see the below:

7. Click on Continue again, you’ll be redirected back to the Jira Cloud screen, and see the below. Click on Save settings:

The status of the Bitbucket server applink on the Jira Cloud will show up as Connected:

8. Now go to the Bitbucket Server UI >> Administration >> Application Links page to confirm if the Jira Cloud applink shows up there as Connected:

The Tunneled application link between your self-hosted Bitbucket instance and Jira Cloud is successfully created.
