How to connect azure devops and bitbucket using 2 step verification
As we know, enable two-step verification will improve protection of user accounts. However, enabling two-step verification (2SV) complicates cloning, pulling and pushing to repositories of the account, if they are accessed over HTTPs.
So, if we use SSH to access the repositories, nothing changes after enabling two-step verification.
If you use HTTPs access, after 2SV is enabled you will need to configure an Access token (BitBucket calls it app password) and use it to authenticate. When prompted for credentials, either enter token as username and leave the password field empty or use the token instead of your password.
App passwords are substitute passwords for a user account which you
can use for scripts and integrating tools to avoid putting your real
password into configuration files.
App passwords are designed to be used for a single purpose with
limited permissions, so they don't require two-step verification
(2SV). This means app passwords can be used by users with 2SV make API
calls to their Bitbucket account, and to integrate Bitbucket with
other tools like Sourcetree and Bamboo.
