# How do I create a Repository Access Token for Bitbucket?

A guide on how to create such a token can be found [here](https://support.atlassian.com/bitbucket-cloud/docs/create-a-repository-access-token/).

The same authentication method is used to fetch the Git repository (for SOUP dependency analysis) as well.

The repository access token needs to have at least the following permissions:

- Repository: `Read`

- Pull requests: `Read`

When entering the authentication credentials in Ketryx, set the following:

- Username: `x-token-auth` (as a verbatim value, as documented [here](https://support.atlassian.com/bitbucket-cloud/docs/using-access-tokens/))

- Password: (the access token)
