Hi @James Trigg

Welcome to the community.

The error message you're getting when you add your public SSH key under your account level SSH key settings indicates that it is already added as an Access key to a repository.

To know exactly the specific repository where it is added, you can use the below Bitbucket Cloud API 2.0 endpoint using the cURL command.

curl -u your_bb_username:app_password "https://api.bitbucket.org/2.0/repositories/workspace_id/repo_name/deploy-keys?fields=values.label,values.key"

Reference: API 2.0 List deploy keys
Please kindly note that you'll need your Bitbucket Cloud username and an App password for the API authentication

To get the list of your repositories, you can use this API 2.0 endpoint. - https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/bitbucket/rest/api-group-repositories/#api-repositories-workspace-get

Hope it helps and let me know how it goes.
