To pull from a private repo in a Bitbucket pipeline, you will need to provide the necessary authentication credentials to access the repository. Here's how you can do it:

  1. Set up SSH key authentication: Generate an SSH key pair on your local machine using ssh-keygen. Add the public key to your Bitbucket account under "SSH keys" in your account settings. Add the private key to your pipeline configuration as a secure environment variable.
  2. Use the SSH key to authenticate when pulling from the private repository in your pipeline script: - ssh-keyscan bitbucket.org >> ~/.ssh/known_hosts - eval $(ssh-agent -s) - ssh-add <(echo "$SSH_PRIVATE_KEY") - git clone [email protected]:
  3. Replace
  4. Don't forget to encrypt your SSH private key as a secure environment variable in your pipeline settings to ensure that it remains secure.


By following these steps, you should be able to pull from a private repo in a Bitbucket pipeline successfully.
