The Scenario
You are an engineering manager at a 20-person startup. The weekly team sync is at 10 AM on Thursday. It is 9:20 and you need a snapshot of all open pull requests across the company's eight Bitbucket repos — who owns them, how old they are, which branch they are targeting.
Nobody tracks this centrally. The data lives in Bitbucket, scattered across eight separate PR queues.
The bad version of this morning:
- You open Bitbucket and navigate to the first repo's pull requests tab
- You copy the PR titles, authors, and dates into a Google Sheet manually
- You repeat for the second repo, the third, adjusting the columns when the order comes out wrong
- By repo five your paste is landing in the wrong columns
- By repo seven you have a half-finished table and the meeting starts in four minutes
- You walk in with three repos still uncovered.
The fast version is one prompt and the table is done before you refill your coffee.
The Easy Way: One Prompt in SheetXAI
SheetXAI is an AI agent inside your spreadsheet that reads the sheet and calls the Bitbucket API for you, handling all eight repos in one pass.
Open the SheetXAI sidebar and type:
List all open pull requests in Bitbucket workspace 'acme-corp' across every repo. Write repo name, PR title, author, source branch, target branch, and days open into columns A through F. Sort by days open descending so the oldest PRs are at the top.
SheetXAI queries every repo in the workspace, merges the results, applies the sort, and writes the full table into the sheet. No copy-paste, no column mismatches, no missing repos.
What You Get
A single flat table with one row per open PR:
- Repo name — which repository the PR belongs to
- PR title — the description as written by the author
- Author — who opened it
- Source and target branch — where it is going
- Days open — calculated from creation date to today, sorted descending
The oldest PRs are at the top by default. The PR that has been sitting untouched for nineteen days is the first row. The one opened this morning is the last.
Want to filter it before the sync? Tell SheetXAI to show only PRs older than five days, or only PRs targeting the main branch. It re-queries with the filter applied.
What If the Data Is Not Quite Ready
Real Bitbucket workspaces have messier PR queues than the scenario above. SheetXAI handles cleanup, filtering, and analysis in the same prompt.
When PR titles are inconsistently formatted
Some authors use Jira ticket prefixes, others use free-form titles. You want a clean column that strips ticket numbers so you can sort by plain description.
List all open PRs in Bitbucket workspace 'acme-corp'. In column A write the repo name. In column B write the PR title with any leading ticket prefix (like PROJ-1234 or BB-99) stripped out. In column C write the author, in column D the days open.
When you only want PRs targeting a specific branch
The team has feature branches and release branches. You want the sync table to show only PRs targeting main.
List all open pull requests in Bitbucket workspace 'acme-corp' where the target branch is 'main'. Write repo name, PR title, author, and days open into columns A through D.
When you want to flag PRs with no reviewer assigned
Some PRs have been open for days because nobody claimed them. You want those flagged in a separate column.
List all open PRs in Bitbucket workspace 'acme-corp'. Write repo, title, author, and days open in columns A through D. In column E, write "Unreviewed" if the PR has no reviewer assigned, and "Assigned" if it does. Sort by column E so unreviewed PRs appear first.
When you want a summary count by repo alongside the raw list
The table is useful, but your manager wants to know at a glance which repos have the most open PRs.
List all open PRs in Bitbucket workspace 'acme-corp' — repo name, title, author, and days open in columns A through D on the Raw tab. Then on the Summary tab, write each repo name and the count of open PRs for that repo, sorted descending by count.
The pattern: instead of pulling a flat list and then building the summary by hand, you ask for both in one prompt. The raw data and the rollup land in separate tabs, ready for the sync.
Try It
Get the 7-day free trial of SheetXAI and open a blank sheet, then ask it to list all open pull requests from your Bitbucket workspace. The Bitbucket integration is included in every SheetXAI plan.
