Common Bitbucket errors
| Error | What it means | Usually | What to do |
|---|---|---|---|
remote: Invalid username or password. | Bitbucket Cloud rejected your HTTPS credentials; account passwords no longer work for Git over HTTPS. | Your side | Create an API token (or an app password where still supported) and use it as the password, then clear cached credentials. Source |
fatal: Authentication failed for 'https://xxxxxx@bitbucket.org/xxxxxxx/xxxxxxx.git/' | Git could not authenticate to Bitbucket over HTTPS. | Your side | Update the stored credentials with a valid token, or use SSH. Source |
Rate limit for this resource has been exceeded. | You or your tools made too many requests to Bitbucket Cloud in a short time (HTTP 429). | Your side | Space out API calls and run them one after another; Atlassian support cannot raise the limits. Source |
Is it just you?
- Check bitbucket.status.atlassian.com for incidents in Git operations, Pipelines or the website.
- Authentication errors usually mean expired or retired credentials; switch to an API token or SSH key.
- Open the browser console: 429 errors mean you are being rate limited, not that Bitbucket is down.
- Compare git over SSH and HTTPS to see whether only one path fails.
Alternatives to Bitbucket
Questions
Bitbucket Cloud no longer accepts account passwords for Git over HTTPS. Use an API token as the password (or SSH), and clear old credentials cached by your Git client.

If your product or your team depends on Bitbucket, its outage is your outage, and your users will blame you, not Bitbucket. Point a Site Qwality monitor at the Bitbucket endpoint you actually rely on, put your own site next to it, and we alert you on Slack, email, SMS or any webhook the moment either one stops answering.
