I have a Java application deployed on Google App Engine. I need to commit plain text files from this application to my BitBucket repo using REST API. What type of authentication would be appropriate for my use case?
I read about 4-5 different types of authentication in the documentation, but cannot fully understand it.
I need something like an API key or a service account to access the BitBucket repo. The whole process runs at the backend, and there's no end-user involvement in it.
If there are any code samples for Java, they would be very helpful too.
UPDATE 1: I managed to implement a fully functional Java servlet to commit files, but using Basic authentication (supplying account user name and password as part of the request header).
I would like to avoid hard-coding user name and password in the code.
