Logging and Working on BitBucket using Git SSH url

This is step by step guide to configuration bitbucket with SCM GIT.exe. I wanted to clone remote BitBucket code repository from server to the local system for script code update/changes and push the changes. The first task is to grab bitbucket repository url, loggin to bitbucket and  click on the clone icon (left side). I wanted to test SSH connection (another option is https). Copy the url link of BitBucket repository.

I have already installed scm git software, Using below command with bitbucket repository url to clone it locally, but was receiving Permission denied error with to make sure I have correct access rights or repository exists.

git clone ssh://git@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:xxxx/xxxx/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.git
Cloning into 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' ...
git@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx: Permission denied (publickey).
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.

I had neccessory access which was accessible from portal, This is authentication error when trying from git commands. To solve this issue Click on the User Profile (top right side), from drop down Choose Manage account.

Select SSH keys from navigation pane, click Add key (As no SSH key has been added I will add one. Adding ssh keys are simple and it connets safely to repositories).

Before Adding key need to generate SSH key. In the Powershell or Cmd prompt execute ssh-keygen command, it generates public and private rsa key pair under C:\Users\userprofilefolder\.ssh folder.

ssh-keygen
Generating public/private rsa key pair.
Enter file in which to save the key (C:\Users\xxxxxxxx/.ssh/id_rsa):
created directory 'C:\Users\xxxxxxxxx/.ssh'.
Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase):
Enter same passphrase again:
Your identification has been saved in C:\Users\xxxxxxxxx/.ssh/id_rsa.
Your public key has been saved in C:\Users\xxxxxxxxxx/.ssh/id_rsa.pub.
The key fingerprint is:
SHA256:/x/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxx\xxxxxxx xxxxxx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
The key's randomart image is:
+-----[RSA 2048]-----+
|                    |
|                    |
|                    |
|        . .         |
|      .  0  .       |
+------[SHA256]------+

There are two files generated under .ssh folder id_rsa (Private Key) and id_rsa.pub (Public Key), Copy the content of id_rsa.pub file content to clipboard.

dir C:\Users\xxxxxx/.ssh/
type C:\Users\xxxxxx/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
type C:\Users\xxxxxx/.ssh/id_rsa.pub | clip

Once copied the public key data information, paste it on the Add public key box and click Add key.

Now its time to test git clone with below command again and it is successful.

git clone ssh://git@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:xxxx/xxxx/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.git
