In Bitbucket Rest API is there any way to get Author date for the commit.  
Author date is date time when actually commit was created.  
In git we can get that using this command:  
git log –n 1 --format=“%at”

Welcome to the Atlassian developer community @abhipatel,

You can [get commit](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/bitbucket/rest/api-group-commits/#api-repositories-workspace-repo-slug-commit-commit-get) using `GET /repositories/{workspace}/{repo_slug}/commit/{commit}` which has a `date` attribute.

is it possible to retrieve information about committer also from bb api?  
because a commit can have author and committer when merge commit is created, rebased and so on.  
I need to have info as in git log there is author field(it’s author of the commit) and Commit where is person who merged(name and email) but I cannot find a solution to get it.  
casual bitbucket api does not provide info about committer.
