Bitbucket pull requests in IntelliJ IDEA, PyCharm and other JetBrains IDEs
JetBrains IDEs have no built-in support for Bitbucket pull requests. JetBrains' support article SUPPORT-A-2412 (August 11, 2025) says so and points to third-party plugins on the Marketplace, and the request for built-in support, IJPL-72762, is marked Shelved. If you use IntelliJ IDEA, PyCharm, WebStorm, Rider or another JetBrains IDE, these are the general plugins for reviewing Bitbucket pull requests that we found there. In PyCharm in particular: what PyCharm does with Bitbucket by itself. In Rider: which of them each Rider version gets.
Disclosure: Lesstep makes one of them (Pull Request Inbox for Bitbucket). The others are described from their JetBrains Marketplace pages (descriptions, change notes, version lists and US prices) and, where linked, their own README or changelog. Where those do not say something, this page says "not stated in its description" instead of guessing. Bitbucket is a trademark of Atlassian. Not affiliated with or endorsed by Atlassian.

Which one fits
- Your server is Bitbucket Data Center or Server older than 8.9: Bitbucket Integration Pro names Data Center 6.x or later, and myBitbucket's README says it is expected to work with any Bitbucket Server that implements the Server REST API 1.0 (sign-in with an HTTP access token needs 5.5 or later). Pull Request Inbox (ours) needs 8.9 or later.
- You are on IDE 2024.1 to 2025.2: Marketplace offers no version of Bitbucket Integration Pro for 2024.1 to 2025.2. myBitbucket, PR Desk and Pull Request Inbox (ours) offer their current versions to all of them, Pull Request Viewer from 2024.3 on; BitBucket Pull Requests offers its current version from 2025.2 on. Android Studio Koala to Otter are on these platforms (which plugins each Android Studio version gets).
- You want a free plugin: myBitbucket (Bitbucket Server and Cloud), PR Desk (Cloud) and Atlassian Assistant (not published by Atlassian; also Jira and Jenkins, see below). Pull Request Inbox (ours) is free for reading.
- You review GitHub or Azure DevOps pull requests too and want one plugin: Pull Request Viewer covers Bitbucket Cloud, GitHub and Azure DevOps Services.
- You want tasks, iterative reviews, code owners as reviewers, or AI agent hooks: Bitbucket Integration Pro lists all of them; its AI features are an MCP server for agents, an "AI Review" action, and text improvement for comments and descriptions with your own API key.
- You mainly review, want reading to stay free, and want no AI features and no telemetry, on Bitbucket Cloud or Data Center 8.9 or later: Pull Request Inbox for Bitbucket (Lesstep's). Its Data Center support is in beta.

Smaller or narrower entries also exist. Atlassian Assistant (free, IDE 2025.1 and later; not published by Atlassian) tracks Bitbucket pull requests, Jira issues and Jenkins builds; its change notes list pull request diffs, comments and creating them, and it has an AI agent chat and an MCP server with Bitbucket and Jira tools; its description does not say Cloud or Data Center.

CodeLens (paid) was last updated on October 10, 2025, and Marketplace offers it up to IDE 2025.3, not to 2026.1 or later. Bitbucket Cloud PR Review (free, Apache 2.0) is new: its first version is from October 29, 2026, for IDE 2026.2 and later. Its description says IntelliJ IDEA and Bitbucket Cloud, and lists creating and reviewing pull requests in their own Git work tree, comments including inline in the editor, approving, "deny", drafts and merging. Atlassian's own Atlassian Teamwork Graph CLI is an interface for the terminal and coding agents that also reaches Bitbucket pull requests; it is not a review view in the IDE. Plugins whose job is an AI code review, or links that open Bitbucket in the browser, are left out; this page keeps to general tools for reviewing Bitbucket pull requests in the IDE.
Prices are the US year-one prices Marketplace listed on October 27, 2026; other countries and later years can differ. Dates are from the same pages (in UTC).
