If like me you synchronize your Repository GitHub with your Jeedom development, you encounter since August 13, 2021 a new error.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Error message<\/h2>\n

remote: Support for password authentication was removed on August 13, 2021. Please use a personal access token instead.
\nremote: Please see https:\/\/github.blog\/2020-12-15-token-authentication-requirements-for-git-operations\/ for more information.
\nfatal: Authentication failed for \u2018https:\/\/github.com\/xx\/\u2019<\/p>\n

Explanation<\/h2>\n

As of 13 August 2021, Github no longer accepts account passwords when authenticating Git operations on GitHub.com.<\/p>\n

They require the use of token-based authentication. <\/span>as a personal access token<\/span> (for developers) or an OAuth or GitHub App installation token (for integrators) for all Git operations authenticated on GitHub.com. <\/span>You can also continue to use SSH keys if you prefer.<\/p>\n

How do we get out of this?<\/h2>\n

I initially tried to create private\/public SSH keys that are configured on Github, all this is accepted but the difficulty is that the SSH link, it is between your Jeedom and Github and not between your computer and Jeedom. I gave up this lead. If someone finds it like making an SSH link between Jeedom and Github on the command line, I am a taker of the info.<\/p>\n

So I tried to find out how the Tokens worked and found that using the Token instead of the password on the command line the Push worked!!! Eureka<\/strong> <\/em>!!<\/p>\n

Here is the manip:<\/p>\n

Generate access token<\/h2>\n

Personal access tokens are an alternative to using passwords for authentication with GitHub when using the GitHub API or the . command line<\/p>\n

As a security measure, GitHub automatically removes personal access tokens that have not been used in a year. To provide additional security, GitHub strongly recommends adding an expiration to your personal access tokens (which I do not)<\/p>\n
