    Hello.
    I downloaded the SSH key from Build Automation Settings/SourceControle and added it in my /.ssh/ folder.

    Then I try
    ssh -vT git@github.com 


    but it asked me for a passphrase.

    What is it ?
    How to get it ?

    Hi!

    The SSH key that you are talking about is a public SSH key and there is no paraphrase. GitHub will use the public SSH key to connect with Build Automation and it will check that Build Automation has a matching private key and grant Build Automation access. Please refer to this doc that shows how to add the SSH key to your account: https://docs.github.com/en/authenti...h/adding-a-new-ssh-key-to-your-github-account

    Please let us know if you have any more questions!

    Cheers
