How to set the app password in Eclipse for bitbucket Repository

Question

From 1st of March the App Password is required to use to Fetsh and Push to the Bitbucket repository. Have created an App Password but when I use this password instead of het account password it is not accepted.

Where can I configure the App Password within the eclipse preferences to be able to access the repository after 1st of March?

A basic issue! I can not find git perspective. I am using EclipseIDE 2021-12.

Change stored credentials has the User field greyed-out, so I cannot change it to my email address for use with an App Password.

Configure Fetch/Push->Change... allows me to edit User, but Save is greyed out for Fetch and Save is not effective for Push.

I'm running Eclipse Version: 2021-12 (4.22.0)

I used my email address and account password as my credentials. This works.

When using an app password you have to use your username with it.

Just a small different.
