Small Desk Tools: archive repository Bitbucket Cloud and Bitbucket Pipelines dashboard wallboard, two gaps we are testing

Two jobs are awkward in Bitbucket Cloud today: archiving old repositories, and seeing the results of Pipelines across all your repositories on one screen. This page sets out the two long-open requests, what the sources read say about today, and two tools that do not exist yet. Each has its own no-payment interest button, counted separately.

Who it is for: Bitbucket Cloud workspace admins and dev teams. Covers: what the sources read say, and what one press on each button counts. Doesn't cover: how either tool would work beyond the words on this page.

Press the one you would buy

Not on sale yet. These tools do not exist yet and may never be built. No payment is taken. Pressing only counts your interest.

Lock, label and move only; not yet tested. It would not hide repositories from lists.

Archive repository in Bitbucket Cloud: the open request

On Atlassian's public tracker, the request BCLOUD-18018, Mark repositories as "archived" or "inactive", has 963 votes. It was created on 24 January 2019. Its status is Future Consideration. It was last updated on 1 August 2026 and is unresolved. These figures were read by this page's makers on 9 November 2026.

Atlassian's support article “How To Archive Repositories” (Bitbucket Cloud, updated September 25, 2025) says:

There is no built-in feature in Bitbucket Cloud to archive repositories. Use a project to store inactive repositories.

An existing option

On the Atlassian Marketplace, the listing for Repo Archiver for Jira (works with Bitbucket) says:

Bitbucket Cloud has no built-in way to archive a repository
Repo Archiver adds a real archived state: move dead repos out of the way, block merges into them, and see which ones are stale from Jira.

The listing showed 1 install and 0 reviews on 9 November 2026. It needs a Jira Marketplace app plus a companion Forge Bitbucket app, is paid via Atlassian, and its price is not shown. The reason given for the two apps is the vendor's own claim and has not been verified. Source: Atlassian Marketplace search for repo archiver.

What we can and cannot say about an outside app

Hiding repositories from lists is not shown for any outside app, so the button above does not promise it. The offer is lock, label and move only. How permissions, labelling and moving a repository to a project behave through Bitbucket's programming interface has not been tested.

Bitbucket Pipelines dashboard wallboard: the open request

On Atlassian's public tracker, the request BCLOUD-12765, Pipeline wallboards, has 303 votes. It was created on 30 May 2016. Its status is Reviewing. It was last updated on 13 August 2026 and is unresolved. These figures were read by this page's makers on 9 November 2026.

The issue description reads:

Bamboo cloud lets us view wall boards for builds. We need a similar capability for pipelines

A comment on the issue dated 31 May 2023 reads:

This issue has gathered enough interest to be moved automatically to Reviewing status, where it will be reviewed to someone in the relevant product development team and moved on to the appropriate status.

Existing options

On the Atlassian Marketplace, the listing for Pipeyard says:

A workspace-wide CI dashboard for Jira and Bitbucket Cloud. See pipeline runs, failures, build status, and self-hosted runners across all your repositories.

The listing showed 1 install and 0 reviews on 9 November 2026. Source: Atlassian Marketplace search for pipeyard.

Dashboard Hub for Bitbucket (DevOps Insights & Charts) is listed as Archived app.

What we can and cannot say about an outside app

Bitbucket's Pipelines API works per repository; rate limits are not confirmed. A screen across a whole workspace would have to list the repositories and look at each one in turn. Whether that works at a useful speed has not been tested.

What one press counts

This page is a test of interest, not a shop. There is no payment form, no email field and no free-text box anywhere on it. The GBP 5 and GBP 8 a month figures are guesses and have not been tested with any buyer. Pressing a button records one anonymous count for the day for that button only, and a short tag if the link you followed carried one. A press on one button is never counted as interest in the other. No cookie is set and no address is kept. One press is allowed per button per page load.
