Error 'git@bitbucket.org: Permission denied (publickey)' on GitBash

[aaroncarternorcott]

I am trying to get a recovery code through SSH and get the error 'git@bitbucket.org: Permission denied (publickey)' when I run the command 

ssh git@bitbucket.org recovery_codes

 Is there an easy way around this?

Thanks

Hi @aaroncarternorcott ,

Where you working with Bitbucket repositories using SSH protocol previously? Perhaps the sshkey you are using is not the one available on BItbucket. If you know what the SSH key is, you could specify it in the ssh command:

ssh -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa_example git@bitbucket.org recovery_codes

More information on Two-step verification documentation.

Kind regards,
Rafael
