Integration Bitbucket with VS Code

Question

Which password should I give if it is prompts when we clone the code to Visual Studio Code

Hi @[deleted],

If you are cloning the repo via HTTPS, you will need to generate an app password for your Bitbucket account and use that instead of a password:

If you only need to clone/pull/push to repos, an app password with permissions Repositories: Read and Repositories: Write should be enough.

We deprecated Bitbucket Cloud account password usage for Git over HTTPS and API a few months ago, and app passwords are a substitute for cloning/pulling/pushing via HTTPS:
