Connect to Bitbucket

info

Version Control works with any Git hosting service that supports the SSH protocol and deploy keys. HTTPS Git connections are not currently supported in Appsmith.

  1. Create a new Git repository if you don't already have one. The connection may fail if the repository is not empty. See How to create a new repository / project

  2. After setting up an empty repository, navigate to the repository's landing page, click on the Clone button, select SSH and copy the SSH URL.

  3. Paste the SSH URL into the Generate SSH Key section in Appsmith, remove the git clone from the URL.

  4. Click the Generate SSH Keys button, and unique ECDSA 256 and RSA 4096 keys are displayed. Choose the appropriate key based on your specific security requirements and system constraints.

  5. Copy one of the keys, then navigate to your Workspace settings. Proceed to SSH keys, click on Add SSH key, paste the copied key, and provide a meaningful title for future reference.

  6. In Appsmith, click the Connect Git button.

With these steps, you have successfully connected to Git.

caution

A user needs to have Create permission for application resources on the workspace to be able to connect or disconnect an app to Git. For more information, see Create Permission.
