Setting up Bitbucket Access

Iguana X needs to have the ability to create Git repos on a cloud Git host like bitbucket. This means we need to create an App password with the correct permissions. Iguana will use your Bitbucket Username and created App Password to authenticate with Bitbucket. This is required to be configured by each User added to the Iguana X instance.

In Iguana X, navigate to Settings → Bitbucket.

This is what you will most likely see initially:
