Hello all! I've ran through the steps in the following docs but have been successful in troubleshooting this issue:

 

I am trying to add ssh key and connect to bitbucket cloud to clone repos.

1 .added and generated Private and public key using on macOS 14.4.1

`ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -C "work@email"`

 

2.Added public key to bitbucket cloud under accounts --> SSH Key .

3 .Added private key 

ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_ed25519

 4. I tried to debug using `ssh -t -vvv git@bitbucket.org`

G'day, @Aaditya Chauhan 

I noticed that you mentioned you use the private key. I believe this is incorrect, you should add your public key under your Bitbucket account instead.

Once done, try to clone again to see if that is resolved. If not, I suggest checking your ssh config at: 

/Users/work@email/.ssh/config

 Make sure to set it to your private SSH config:

Host bitbucket.org
AddKeysToAgent yes
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_ed2551

Let me know how it goes.

Syahrul
