Issue
My Bitbucket password is correct because I can easily log in with this password. When I try to push a project or file to Bitbucket it shows “Invalid credentials error”.
Solution
When prompted to log in, use your username, but instead of your usual account password, use the app password:
To get the app password
- Go to the bitbucket.org website and log in
- From your gear in the upper right, and click Personal Bitbucket settings
- Click App passwords under Access management
- Click Create app password
- Give the app password sufficient rights (probably write on the repo at a minimum), and a label related to the application that will use the password
- Don’t forget to save that password
