Save time, reduce context switching, and improve collaboration and clarity throughout your organization with the new Shortcut and Bitbucket Cloud integration.

Save time and reduce context switching

Use the Shortcut and Bitbucket Cloud integration to reduce the number of status meetings, daily email follow-ups, and copy-pasting tasks from one tool to another. Link your work in Bitbucket Cloud to the Shortcut Stories you are working on without leaving your command line in the following ways:

  1. Stay in your workflow with specially formatted commit messages. Associate a commit to one or multiple Stories for insight into work in progress, right in your Stories. More information on how to associate commits to a Story here.
  2. Get to work more quickly with branch naming conventions to automatically connect and track the status of pull requests. When a branch is associated with a Story, you can open a PR from Shortcut to make updates seamlessly. More information on how to connect your branch here.
