SSH KEY INVALID

Cornelius_akub7z

Hi, all. I am new to bitbucket, and I am trying to connect UiPath (An automation tool) to bitbucket. I generated a ssh key on my pc using ssh-keygen and it got saved. When I open the key in notepad and paste in Add SSH key under Personal settings, it says the SSH key is invalid. Please advise if I am doing something wrong?

Best Regards

Hello @Cornelius and welcome to the Community!

It might have been the case that the command you used to generate the key used an encryption algorithm that is not supported by Bitbucket Cloud.

I would suggest trying to recreate the key following the instructions outlined in the following documentation, according to your platform :

It's important to note that the key you need to add to Bitbucket is the public key (the extension of the file will be.pub)

Hope that helps! Let us know in case you have any questions or run into any issues following the instructions in the above articles.

Thank you, @Cornelius !

Hi Patrik, thank you for your response. I've installed GIT and when running through GIT Bash, I am not able to start the SSH service. Do you have any advice re that?

Hi Cornelius,

Based on the output, it looks like there may be other ssh-agent processes running on this computer.

You can run the following command to double-check if there is another ssh-agent process running:

ps -a | grep ssh-agent

If there is, you don't need to start the ssh-agent again.

Kind regards,
Theodora

Hi Theodora, thank you for your prompt reply. I ran this and it took me to the next line, so I am not sure if the agent is running ?Then after I tried to start the agent as described on Set up SSH key for Windows. I get the following error. Would you please be able to advise?
