Get started with Bitbucket Cloud
New to Bitbucket Cloud? Check out our get started guides for new users.
Join or create a workspace
To join or create a workspace, you need an individual Bitbucket account. Once you have created your Bitbucket Cloud account, you can join an existing workspace by accepting the invite sent to your email inbox or contact your Bitbucket Cloud administrator to get access.
Whoever creates the workspace automatically has administrative access. That user can also specify admin access for other members of the workspace, giving them the ability to administer the team. Any admin can update the workspace's plan and credit card details.
Create a workspace
Bitbucket Cloud is now in Atlassian Administration, which means you can manage your Bitbucket users and groups within the same organization where your Jira site and Confluence space are administrated. The information below can also be accessed at Add a new product to your organization | Atlassian Support.

Wikis and Issue tracker are not available in workspaces administered in Atlassian Administration
Wiki and Issue Tracker features are not supported in workspaces administered through admin.atlassian.com. These features will be disabled if you create or following a transfer to a workspace administered through admin.atlassian.com. If you have already transferred the repository, you can transfer it back to the original workspace to regain access to the wiki and issues. Wikis can be exported via cloning since they are stored as a separate repository. Issues can be exported as a zip file or migrated to Jira.
For information on how to add members or groups to your workspace or to grant access to existing repositories in your workspace, refer to Grant access to a workspace.
Update your Workspace settings
You can update your Workspace settings only if you have administrative permissions. If you think you should have admin permissions, ask another administrator to grant you access. If you have admin permission, find your Workspace settings with the following steps:
From your profile avatar, select the workspace or click All workspaces for a full list.
Select the Settings cog on the top navigation bar.
Select Workspace settings from the Settings dropdown menu.
The Workspace settings page opens by default.
Navigate between multiple workspaces
Bitbucket Cloud is scoped to provide you (a member of the workspace) all the content you have permission to access within a single workspace. If you work in or are a member of more than one workspace, you can switch between workspaces.
Select Your profile avatar in the upper-right corner of the top navigation bar.
Select a workspace from the Recent workspaces list, or select All workspaces to display a list of all the workspaces in which you are a member and select the appropriate workspace from the list.
