Unable to clone remote repo - Invalid credentials error

[Bose Muthu]

Hi, I have successfully created Atlassian account using my google credentials. while installing Source Tree in my windows machine, I have selected Bitbucket while registering.

It redirected to my bitbucket account , then i selected my google account and able to register successfully. 

Then I have attempted to clone my remote repository and getting below error

Command: git -c diff.mnemonicprefix=false -c core.quotepath=false --no-optional-locks ls-remote https://username@bitbucket.org/**-***/**-***-api.git
Output:
Error: remote: Invalid credentials
fatal: Authentication failed for 'https://bitbucket.org/**-***/**-***-api.git/'

I have verified the credentials from Tools -> Options -> Authentication. It looks good. Even I deleted and added the account again. It looks good.

Hi @Bose Muthu and welcome to the community!

We have deprecated the use of account passwords for Git over HTTPS and API:

• https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Bitbucket-articles/Announcement-Bitbucket-Cloud-account-password-usage-for-Git-over/ba-p/1948231

Your account's password can be used only for logging in to https://bitbucket.org/ from browser.

If you want to clone, pull, or push to a repo with basic authentication over HTTPS, you can generate an app password for your account and use that instead of a password (along with your Bitbucket username that can be found here https://bitbucket.org/account/settings/):

• https://support.atlassian.com/bitbucket-cloud/docs/app-passwords/

The Atlassian account's password or your Google account's password won't work.

Just a heads up, I removed the username from your post to protect your privacy.

Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions.

Kind regards,
Theodora
