I created the "magic" password in bitbucket. saved it. opened sourcetree for windows 3.4.6.
open a new tab.
click remote
I get a list of repositories on my remote bitbucket account
Choose the one i want
click "clone"
ultimately get this error:
Error: remote: You'll need to authenticate with a valid app password. You can create an app password from your account at https://bitbucket.org/account/admin/app-passwords
i've edited my account on sourcetree. changed the password to match the "magic" on generated on bitbucket.
Note: i'm not trying to enable ssh
There has to be a coherent set of instructions for hooking sourcetree 3.4.6 up to bitbucket!
hopefully somebody has them.
found a solution in another post (linked below for ref)
i had to inject ':<AppPassword>' into the url
https://<username>:<AppPassword>@........
(EDITED, solution above) (original Post - same issue) I'm having exactly the same issue - account authorizes correctly when selecting Basic and supplying new App Password...under Remote it shows my account and brings back the correct Repositories when 'refresh'd....click CLONE.....it spins its wheels for a bit and then brings back:
Error: remote: You'll need to authenticate with a valid app password. You can create an app password from your account at https://bitbucket.org/account/admin/app-passwords
fatal: unable to access 'https://bitbucket.org/JSchu/test1.git/': The requested URL returned error: 403
